An update on my latest cultural activity:

I did the choreography for a marathi number (a fusion mix of dhagala lagi and aika dajiba songs) for a group of youngsters, and we went for the inter-corporate dance competition.

Here are a couple of pics:

What fun it was! We won the third prize, although unfortunately we missed the 2nd prize by 1/2 mark :( But getting the third prize among 13 teams is good enough, right! I've been revelling the whole of last week.

Two weeks of intermittent choreography and practice, and we really had good fun! I never knew Marathi songs were so peppy and comic. I had a blast doing the choreography and watching the team perform. Amateur dancers they were, but their commitment was impressive. A couple of fellas were really the highlight - cute and impish; adding the spice to the team. One of the judges came to us after the results were announced, and told us just how much he loved our dance, the energy, the choreography and the expressiveness of the girls. Thank you! That just was the icing on the cake :) As for the audience, I can proudly say, ours was the only song that really rocked them all!

Dhagala lagli kada paani themb themb kada... :)
