Leaving everyone spell bound emerging dancing sensation Suhani Dhanki entices Mumbai with her graceful performs at Y. B. Chavan Centre as a part of the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR)
‘Dance is Life’… This holds true for upcoming dancing talent Suhani Dhanki,
a trained Bharatnatyam dancer who is fast emerging as a known face both
nationally and internationally. She recently performed at a dance
recital in Mumbai.
Holding
a masters degree in Bharatanatyam with a distinction and gold medal
from Bharata College of Fine Arts & Culture and a degree in LLB from
the Mumbai University, taking up this dance form was a deliberate
choice for Suhani.
Talking about Suhani love for dance she said with pride, “When
I watched my guru dance and her commitment to the art, I knew that this
was the dance form for me. I learnt Kathak but Bharatnatyam is the
closest to my heart and will always remain so.”
Dancing
for the last 15 years, she takes inspiration from her guru her interest
and dedication was inspired from her guru. In a typical guru - shishya
relationship, Suhani has not just imbibed dance lessons from her guru but also a form of tradition that she is extremely proud of.
Suhani performed
live at the Y. B. Chavan Centre as a part of the Indian Council for
Cultural Relations (ICCR) where she beautifully presented 'Shivaarchana',
composed and choreographed by her guru Dr Sanddhya V Pureccha in
traditional Bharatanatyam of the Tanjavur style. She also performed
Abhinaya Pada from the Marathi Nirupana of Raja Sarfoji II of Tanjore,
choreographed by the legendary late Acharya Parvatikumar. The highlight
of the show was her performance onstage to live music. Noted artists
like Dr Sanddhya V Pureccha on nattvangam, Sivaprasad on vocals, Satish
Krishnamurthy on mridangam and S R Balasubramaniam on violin, all made
her performance memorable.
Mumbai
being a city that eagerly adopts all forms of art has a wonderful
audience for this non native form of dance who appreciated and further
encouraged her performance. Currently pursuing her Masters in Fine Arts
from the Bharata College of Arts and Culture, Mumbai Suhani is also
looking forward to quite a few performances later this month. This
talented girl has also recently played the character of Madri in the
telly saga Mahabharata.
