Samudra Manthan!

Samudra Manthan tells the story of the Devas and Asuras churning the cosmic ocean in search of Amrut, the nectar of immortality. Mount Mandara was used as the churning rod and Vasuki as the rope. When the mountain began to sink, Lord Vishnu took the form of Kurma, the divine tortoise, and supported it on his back, ensuring the churning could continue. From the depths of the ocean emerged both poison and celestial treasures, culminating in the appearance of the sacred nectar of immortality. ✨

Every project becomes special because of the people behind it, and I am deeply grateful to every team member who poured their heart and soul into this one.

A heartfelt thank you to our producers Joshi Sir and Karjekar Sir, director Prabhune Sir the entire technical team and all my dear students for making this journey so memorable.

Creating, learning, and growing together is what makes the process truly meaningful. Looking forward to sharing this project with all of you very soon and hearing your thoughts once it’s released. 🤍

Ghungaroo !
In Kathak, ghungroos are not just ankle bells they are an instrument that gives voice to the dance. Their melodious sound transforms every movement into music and expression. When the ghungroos resonate, the soul of Kathak comes alive.

Balance!
