This large-scale dance drama, presented by HCL Concerts, explores the climate crisis through the lens of Bharatanatyam. The production examines the issue from scientific, humanitarian, and psychological viewpoints, asking what we can do to care for our planet.
Solo Recitals: The Classical Repertoire
My solo performances are rooted in the traditional Bharatanatyam margam, exploring classic items like Varnam, Jathiswaram, and Thillana.

Sonar Bangla: Celebrating Bengal's River Culture
This production delves into the rich culture of Bengal, centered around its life-giving rivers like the Ganga and Padma. Through 'Bhatiyali' or boatman songs and poetry, we explore themes of shared heritage that transcend political boundaries.
Pehchaan: An Exploration of Art & Identity
'Pehchaan' (Identity) is a solo work that grapples with the relationship between the dancer and the artist. It questions how much of my personal identity I carry onto the stage and how I reconcile the person I am with the timeless 'Nayika' or heroine I portray in dance.
Collaborations & Experimental Works
I love to push the boundaries of Bharatanatyam by collaborating with artists from different disciplines and exploring unconventional themes. This includes working with Western classical musicians, creating dance theatre based on European literature, and contributing to global music projects.
Artistic Portraits & Thematic Photoshoots
Beyond the stage, I use photoshoots to explore concepts and emotions, from the playfulness of Holi to the philosophical depths of Tagore's poetry. These images are a space for personal expression and a visual extension of the stories I tell through dance.
Behind the Scenes: Process & Pedagogy
A performance is the culmination of countless hours of practice, research, and collaboration. This is a glimpse into my process, from studio rehearsals and international tours to sharing the joy of dance through SPIC MACAY workshops.
