interesting about me is my love for dance. Most people take a single glance at me and would never assume that I dance. I have been dancing for six years and my passion is tap.

Saguna and Nirguna Bhakti in Classical dance forms. Bhakti means devotion. Bhakti can be categorised into Saguna and Nirguna. Saguna Bhakti means form of God‚ with ’living’ attributes. Nirguna Bhakti means form of God‚ with "sleeping’ attributes. Bhakti is always Saguna... there can’t be a nirguna Bhakti !!!. For I think Meditation and Mantra can be Saguna or Nirguna.

With dance you are telling a story to your audience members and captivate them with freedom of one’s expression. Dance is moving rhythmically to music‚ typically following a set sequence of steps‚ or a person who is moving quick in a lively way. Dance is an art form in which
