Description: "Kanya” produced by “Niraj Chag” is a fusion composition to which this kathak piece has been choreographed. It presents the myriad of emotions that dance creates in one's life. The choreography is unique in its absence of deep details of the abhinaya aspect, as the story being told is of dance itself. The spins and postures of the choreography follow the ebbs and flows of the composition as well as nature and the universe to depict the contrasting energy created by dance. Sometimes very tender and other times full of fervor, dance is an outlet and an anchor which grounds the dancer through their life's journey. Performed by Priyanka Mehta, Reva Nair and Tara Nair.
