After weeks of vigorous practice, hard work of more than some 70 people and with huge amount of commitment from each and every participant... Yes, we did it!!! :) :) :)
The theatre was full, there were numerous people left behind as they got late in buying tickets, which got sold out days before the event... The audience were mesmerized by the talent of Ms Nirmala Madhava and her group, aging between 1 year to more than 38 yrs! Yes, it was all worth each and every minute spent by each and every one of us... We did a really good job, which was proved by the standing ovation Ma'm got from the wonderful audience :)
It was the very first time for me, being in such a large group of professionals and performing in such an environment... I must say I had a great time with all of them!
Lemme tell you all a little bit about my role... I was there in two dances, one was in a contemporary piece, in which I was part of the "hunter group". Yeah, a real hunter, catching and eating up the sweet cute peaceful peacocks, swans, deers and even the poor beautiful nature girls! There were 10 of us and we had an awesome time, doing what pleased us on stage! And yes, it was a big hit, as as far as I know, no one in the audience expected this and have never ever seen anything like this!
And now coming to the major part I had to play... I was Hiranyakashipu, the father of Prahlada and the one mean, egotist demon who gets killed finally by Lord Vishnu's Narasimha avatar. Narasimha was none other than our ma'm, and my role was pretty hot! I had a complete make over, with a long wig, and a kingly mustache! And the role was pretty interestign, as it involved being received by the "gopikas" and ordering to kill my own son and fighting with the gorgeous Narasimha and finally getting killed!!!
I am happy that I was able to do complete justice from my side to the role and yes, the response from the audience was also pretty good... Now, I am waiting for my Ma'm to give me a feedback... Hopefully she is impressed! :)
So, now my life has again the beautiful presence of dance... I hope I will be able to learn more and dance more and enjoy more... I must say here that I really dont know how I could handle all this without Vikas at my side, supporting me for anything and everything... Ya ya, he says he wants an SLR and he wants a house and he wants a Merc!!! ;)
