I am a dedicated Kathak artist with 16 years of learning and training in this beautiful classical dance form. My journey in Kathak has been more than just learning steps—it has been a path of discipline, expression, devotion, and continuous growth. Currently, I am pursuing Visharad (Graduation in Kathak), deepening my understanding of its rich tradition, technique, and artistry. For this performance, I have uploaded ‘Shakar Atiprachand’, a powerful and dynamic production choreographed by Guru Pt. Rajendra Gangani Ji of the Jaipur Gharana. This composition reflects the strength, precision, and intricate rhythmic beauty of the Jaipur style. Through my performance, I aim to express the essence of Kathak while showcasing my passion, dedication, and years of training. For me, Kathak is not just a dance form—it is a part of my identity and a way of expressing my soul.

I am submitting a Bharatanatyam performance of Devi, originally conceptualized by Priyadarsini Govind and learnt under my Guru Smitha S Pillai. The piece portrays the strength, grace, and divine energy of the feminine through expressive abhinaya and intricate nritta. I have been learning Bharatanatyam for over 10 years and have completed a Double Diploma from Prayag Sangeet Samiti, Prayagraj. I have performed on various stages and won accolades including the National Level Classical Dance Competition at Kala Utsav and the National Level CBSE Classical Dance Competition. I have also performed in the presence of Union Minister Mansukh Mandaviya. Through this submission, I aim to present my dedication, discipline, and deep passion for Bharatanatyam.

This is an original guitar cover of Ehsaas by Faheem Abdullah, performed and recorded entirely by me. The project showcases my ability to arrange and adapt a contemporary Urdu track for solo acoustic guitar, capturing the emotional depth and soul of the original composition. Every chord, melody, and nuance was carefully interpreted to stay true to the song's heartfelt essence while adding a personal touch through live performance. This cover reflects my passion for music, my dedication to developing my guitar skills, and my love for bringing meaningful songs to life in a new, intimate format.

Hi.. I'm Nancy..I love dancing...I've been participating in dance competitions at school since K.G. Class. I performed last year on my B.Ed. assessment day. I hope you all like it.

Hello everyone! I am Aadya Ghosh, a second year B.A(Hons.) Economics student of University of Delhi. I am trained Kathak dancer, learning for the past 13 years. The video I have uploaded for my audition is in two parts. The first part represents a pure classical piece composed by Smt. Bhageshree Vaze in taal Dhamar. However, the second part is a krishna thumri is also performed representing the mischievous yet beautiful teasing between Radha and lord Krishna. the first part is a pure representation of the classical and technical parts of the dance form whereas the second part that is the Krishna Thumri is based more on the expressive part. Thank you!
