I danced like no one watching - Part 2

In continuation to my last blog about my dance performance here is part 2 of I danced like no one watching.

After few mistakes in our first performance, some of us shouted at each other but no matter how bad your last performance was, the show must go on and you have to be prepared for your next performance.

We did the same.. we came down to our green room and dressed up for next performance.

Our next performance was Nagada sang dhole baaje of Ramleela.

We needed lots of energy to perform on this pure folk dance song.. This song itself is full of energy but audience expect you to dance with same level of energy and enthusiasm.


Hence we decided to eat and drink something before makeup.

After feeding ourselves with chips and fruit juices the glittering beauties were ready to rock the stage.


I know I am looking fat in chaniya choli still I danced like no one watching because this is what I supposed to do there..

As we were standing back stage and saw the dance of the group before us. I was nervous as they gave super awesome performance but we decided that we will give even better.. Again we hugged each other and decided to give the best performance till date.

So, The most loved performance of the day is here.. Drop your comments and blessings to keep me going with my dreams..

I danced like no one watching -Part 1

When I came to Mumbai in Aug 2013, mee, my sister and my bhabs decided to join dance classes. Dance which is stress buster for some while alternative of exercise for some. But for mee its my love. And within 15 days we were in first session with VKDC. Warm up started and in next 15 mins we were so exhausted that I felt that I can't continue. The enthusiasm was overtaken by tiredness but determination said we can do it. Days, Weeks and months passed by.

In November our choreographer announced the annual day function in January and we all were super excited to perform on stage.

Preparations started. Sometimes our friends and group members don't come up for practice and sometimes sir doesn't come to class. We were nervous but we didn't give up and continued our practices.

And finally the day arrived. We all gathered at "Navin Bhai Thakkar Auditorium, Vile Parle"


Excited!! as you can see in the pic :D 

We rehearsed our steps on both the songs, discussed not to be nervous and to give our best.. 
Then it was time to get into our costumes and do make-up for our performance.
Our first performance was on SAWAR LOON/ RAABTA, a contemporary dance style.


Everyone was looking so good in this costume that excitement increased exponentially.

Then it was time to hit the stage.. We wished all the best to everyone and took our positions..

I am posting a link to our performance here and will wait for your comments..

Enjoy!! Hope you will like it. 
As I danced like no one watching. :)

And wait for next blog post of next performance..

He is no more mine and I'll miss him..

So friends and followers here is my first post of the year and I never thought it would be so emotional and so heartbreaking. Life is a challenge, we all feel happy and sad. I never posted anything directly that is effecting my mental peace so badly. And yes you guessed its right its about love. My lost love.
Love which could not be mine..

On third day of this year I came across a news which broke my heart. I could not control my emotions. I cried hard.

One of my friend sent me a pic on WhatsApp and said:

Friend : Buddy, John ne shadi kar li is se :D
Mee : :'( Aisa nhi ho sakta buddy, keh do ke ye jhooth hai
Friend : Sorry par ye sach hai dost. John even tweeted this.
Mee: Sab shadi kar lenge buddy to mera kya hoga. Mai John ke siwa kisi ke baare mei soch bhi nhi paungi.
Friend: Don't worry. Everything will be all right.
Mee: He should've informed me. Uski khushi hi to meri khushi hai. Usne kabhi mujhe apna samjha hi nhi buddy.

Then our conversation went on and on. But his words were not giving me consolation. I was sad. I was frustrated. I was broken. I couldn't accept the fact that the person whom I love the most, is no more with me.

I knew we couldn't be together. But atleast he was mine. If he told me that he wants to marry and is happy with someone else. I would've made myself strong to hear this news.

Even after hearing this news, I didn't have courage to google if this news is true or just a rumor.

I was sad. I was depressed. I was not ready to accept it.

In the evening of same day another friend pinged and asked 'John ne shadi kar li, aap gaye the ya nhi'. 

And I was shattered. I have not replied to this message even today. :(

Next day my dad also said, John Abrahim ne shadi kar li.
I said: Haan, padha maine.
Mom: Kis se?
Mee: Koi Priya se.
Mom: Bipasha se to mana hi kar diya tha. Kar li, chalo ki toh kam se kam.

My senses stopped working, I dont know who said what after that.

All I know is that my heart is crying since then.

I will miss you John!! :'(
