"I run workshops and lectures where I use dance, art, and stories to make Indian mythology and philosophy easy to understand for anyone, not just experts."

I’m always trying to bridge the gap between research and intuition—between thinking and doing. My workshops and lectures are my way of making Indian art, mythology, and philosophy feel close and alive for anyone who joins, not just academics or artists.
I love bringing Bharatanatyam and the history behind it to schools and colleges, especially in smaller towns. Kids learn basics like mudras (hand gestures) and get a taste of Indian mythology interactive sessions.
Based in Delhi, but I travel all over India for in-person events. Many workshops, like the TRIKONA series, are also online—so distance isn’t a barrier.
For me, teaching is nrityasewa—service through dance. It’s about sharing, not showing off.

My Story
My Work
What I Offer - Thematic Bharatanatyam productions (solo, duet, collaborations), painting exhibitions with art talks, and research-based workshops on Indian art and mythology.
My Approach - It’s never just about performing. I dig into shastras, epics—stories like Shikhandi and Ras-E-Raskhan—then shape them for today.
Art Meets Dance - My painting style—Chola-inspired lines, Ajanta colors—feeds my choreography. Both arts live together at @thenatyachitra.
Stories Close to Me - Solo acts like Shikhandi and UnEklavya aren’t just tales, but questions. I want audiences to feel, to think, to connect.
