I'd say classical. Maybe I'm a tab bit biased because I've learnt it as a kid myself, but the bias aside, I'd still go for classical anyday. It's the most graceful, expressive, elegant, yet sensuous form of dance. My guru ji once told me that if you learn any form of classical dance, other dance styles come to you easily. And trust me he was right. What classical basically does is get all your body parts in sync with each other, which is required for any style.

DID is more contemporary/bollywood oriented, and these forms have been exploited in every way possible. They've not really covered classical that well, so when we say 'classical', the only way we can think of is it's purest form. Classical is a great form to try fusion in, it comes out beautifully. And not just Kathak-Bharatnatyam, Orissi-Kathak etc, western styles can be blended with Indian too. I once went to see this show in which they had infused Kathak and Flamenco together.

I think DID should try out more experiments with classical dance. I particularly expect Geeta to mix and match classical styles and come up with something different :)

Hard to say...though the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw the question was contemporary...then I likePop/Jazz, Latin Ballroom, Hip Hop...i like Classical too...provided all these dance have been performed properly =|

But my penultimate favourite is contemporary...and my favourite choreographers EVER in that style are Mia Michaels and Stacey Tookey =|

Semi-Classical

Pure classical (executed by a well trained dancer)

Indo-western fusion / something unique such as the 'bhojpuri salsa' or 'amitabh remix'

Contemporary is fine too as long as there is a balance.

We are culturally so lucky to have these varied dance forms and be able to assimilate other dance forms aesthetically into ours ⭐️
