A performance by Dishaa Creative Dance Group.
Doha: The Indian Embassy is organising a Contemporary Dance Performance by Dishaa Creative Dance Group led by Basu Sharma as part of the Qatar-India 2019 Year of Culture celebrations.
There will be two performances - tonight at the Ballroom of St. Regis Hotel for local dignitaries and diplomatic corps and tomorrow for the larger Indian Community at 6:30pm at the Auditorium of DPS MIS School. The entrance passes are available at ICC.
The event will be an amalgamation of several Indian dance styles and will be enacted by a troupe of 12 performers. The Dance Group has structured its performance around six themes, in six parts named “Aura”, “Elements”, “Two shades”, “Mohe Rang Do Laal”, “Jugalbandhi (fusion)” and “Holiya me ude gulaal”. The dance piece “Aura” highlights the significance of spirituality in our lives with performance fusing together yoga movements and Indian contemporary dance. “Elements” depicts fire and water elements . The “Two Shades” piece brings into picture the two sides of life. “Mohe Rang Do Laal” celebrates the festival of colour through Kathak dance.
“Jugalbandhi” is a fusion of dances highlighting the cultural diversity of India. The event ends with a Rajasthani folk dance in “Holiya me ude gulaal” performance. Given that the event provides a glimpse of India’s rich cultural heritage, it would be a fitting tribute to the immense diversity that India offers and also to the links between India and Qatar in the field of culture and music.
