A humble attempt to choreograph the soothing song from 99 Songs movie by A.R.Rahman. The song is a beautiful expression of a child's love for amma (mother).  Choreographed and performed on the 3rd of August, 2021.  Music Credits: A.R. Rahman  Movie: 99 Songs

A dark room lit by a small oil lamp combines with the #lockdown mood. So what song would you choose to cry out your heart? I chose the divine song of Bharathiyar sung by the one and only Bombay Jeyashri.

Imagine being forced to be quiet and obedient for so long. Imagine when you finally muster up your courage to take a step forward to find your life's purpose and happiness, only to be bullied and looked down on. Imagine the inner strength you need to navigate your internal struggle and push back the external forces. This is an experimental piece. How can we use classical art forms to address social issues?
