1) "Her Sparkle"
She stood in her pink lehenga, eyes wide, heart braver than ever.
Born delicate, but dancing strong — a miracle in tiny bangles.
That moment, captured in color and stars, wasn't just a painting.
It was her story — of courage, of love, of shining anyway.

2) Dance – My Eternal Companion
Dance, for me, has always been more than just movement — it is an emotion, a language, an escape. While many say dance is a medium to express, I truly believe it’s a mirror to the soul. No matter the emotion — be it joy, sorrow, anxiety, or peace — dance has always been there, holding my hand like an old friend.
From a young age, I have been trained in Kathak, a classical art form that breathes life into rhythm and expression. But beyond the stage, beyond the technicalities, dance has been Nitya — eternal. It is something that flows through me, grounding me and yet letting me fly.
I feel incredibly grateful that my body supports this passion. The grace, the poise, the strength — they don’t just shape my performance; they shape me. Dance has gifted me recognition, but more importantly, it has gifted me confidence. It has added stars to my personality and placed a smile on my face, even on the dullest days.
To me, dance is not just a skill — it's my identity. My safe space. My celebration. My story.
