"And perhaps
What made her beautiful
Was not her appearance
Or what she achieved,
But in her love
And in her courage,
And her audacity to believe :
No matter the darkness
Around her,
Light ran wild
within her,
And that was the way
She came alive,
And it showed up
In everything." ~ Anonymous

I danced in an advertisement for #ReimaginingGrowth by @invest_karnataka_ in collaboration with @virtualbharat
Go check it out in their handles.
~What happens when #art shapes #technology and the future is the reflection of rooted #traditions ? It creates an environment of creativity and excellence.
That makes #ReimaginingGrowth a reality !
Thank you @virtualbharat & @bharatbala for this opportunity to be an AI dancing goddess! It was a magical experience dancing inside a motion capture costume combining Classical Traditional Dance with Contemporary Dance genre !! This is truly the beginning of Virtual Reality and Future..
In the video with @natanayaksha @the.mango.showers 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thank you so much @sharanya.ramprakash
for bringing this project to me! 🙏🏾

Every space has a story. Some are waiting for you to create one. ✨

A room full of possibilities — where bodies find movement, ideas find form, and people come together to make a little magic.

From rehearsals that run a little longer to workshops that spark something new, from shoots to spontaneous ideas — there’s room for it all at Natyaluru. 🤎

Your next idea needs a space. We might just have it.

Now open for rentals.

📍 Natyaluru, The East-West School, Basavanagudi 📩 DM us to book your space.

Come move. Create. Make something happen.

An old European house turned into a dance floor?

That’s what it looked like.

Except I was inside Athangudi Palace in Chettinad.

The house alone makes you stop and stare.

Add the dancing, and suddenly you’re wondering where to look.

What a performance! ✨

In an old Chettinad courtyard, Tamil folk, contemporary movement, and beautiful costumes somehow all belong together. ✨

Which other South Indian dance form would you love to see blended with contemporary?
