The Embassy of India in Doha will organise a contemporary dance performance by Dishaa Creative Dance Group, led by Basu Sharma, as part of the ‘India-Qatar Year of Culture 2019’ celebrations.
The event will be held in the Ballroom of St Regis Hotel on February 21 for local dignitaries and diplomatic corps, and at the Auditorium of DPS MIS School on February 22 for the larger Indian community.
The performance, an amalgamation of several Indian dance styles, will be enacted by a troupe of 12 performers. The group has structured its performance around six themes in six parts, namely, ‘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 the 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 will end 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,” the embassy said in a press statement.
