I would LOVE to see a pure Indian contemporary dance too. Thought I don't think it's necessary to have a dancer like Kruti/Vrushali in order to do full justice to a good piece of choreography. Having said that, being classically trained is always hugely advantageous.

I'm sure if we have some students from TLDA or SDIPA then no doubt we'll get to see some brilliant contemporary dances! :)

I have always believed classical dancing is the root of all dance forms. A dancer should have classical training to enhance their dancing skills.

Classical and tradional Indian dancing always appeal to me. They are timeless. In my family, a couple of my nieces (aged 13 and 17) are professional dancers and can effortlessly dance to the tunes of kathak and bharatnatyam (the only names i know given my limited knowledge about indian art-my bad).

I have seen them in various functions at triveni theatre and they are also students of Smt. Saroja Vaidyanathan ji. Watching an Indian contemporary dance with a guru-shishya theme is always appealing to me. They are simple, evergreen and every move conveys a story. Gives perfect sukoon to the audience.

CPR, offcourse we will see some good contemporaries, even remo does some good stuff too, remember the krishna and mahadev story he tried with puneet and shashank or bhavna doing bawra man. I am sure there will be excellent contemporary dancers as well to do justice to them this season, whether they are trained in TLDA or SDIPA is immaterial as long as they bring life to it.

But i was trying to say that i want to see indian contemporary or lets say semi classical mix,. This needs some indian classical training for mudras and expression, kruti and vrushali have set a benchmark in it. I dont think, even some one as strong as shakti could have pulled off the albela sajan by kruti, also there was a albela sajan by dharmesh and vaishnavi and that was wonderful too. That is why i mentioned their names in this context.

Also i hope people will follow kruti and amrita's and nikkitasha's path and do some pure indian classical the way she did. I mostly will remember amrita for attempting classical though, coz manipuri isnt a very popular dance form and she gambled. She almost lost due to geeta maa's stupidity and we certainly wouldn't have seen her if dada hadn't kept her as standby

overall, some good dancing and meeting old friends and seeing the masters.

Just to clarify - only reason I mentioned TLDA and SDIPA is because Terence has already mentioned there are 3/4 dancers from his academy and both him and Shiamak specialise in both Indo Jazz and Indian Contemporary so it'd be interesting to see their performances. They shall forever be compared to the likes of Mayuresh and Shakti who were mindblowing in those dance forms.

Another nice thread, Rani!!!

Indo-Contemporary style has been shown on DID in both previous seasons, as far as I can remember...

Will add my ideas later.
