Can I just say that I miss my sweetest so much! It’s been 10 days, and nowhere close to the end of the tour….. but I can’t wait to be around Kongys infectious joy again. Thank you for the lovely outfit! @toraniofficial @karantorani And the beautiful photos @vivianambrose #dogmom #indiandesigner #sillygames #gsd #germansheperd #lifewithkong
Found this photo of my mom and me while scrolling. (I end up scrolling through my photo album a lot when traveling – because I miss being home… 🙈 ) I know that’s it’s not Mother’s Day or anything, but my mom is special. She’s always been there behind the scenes with everything that I do. Helping, supporting, watching and cheering me on. Maybe that’s just normal for moms to do. But it certainly feels special to me. 1. After a performance in Madurai (too sunny to open our eyes) 2. Natyanjali shows with my students during Shivaratri … maybe 2018? 3. Shooting for my first film that had anything underwater … during covid. (Maldives… she sat waiting in the heat on the boat while we were trying to get shots underwater) 4. Being loving to our darling Zorro. She bathed, fed, cleaned and took care of our two puppies 5. After a corporate show in chennai 6. Tanjavur temple – forget which year 7. Outside the devagiri temple in bangalore (only picture where I showed up for one of her events… all the rest are her showing up for mine ♥️) #bestmom #misshome #dancerlife #bharatanatyamdancer

SUBSCRIBE ! for more on the art making process… and the rigorous of it Between performances, it’s important to plan my training properly. I’ve learned form @somyarout2806 that I have to load on the day after my performance on a Monday especially when the next show is on the following Friday. It gives me two days to recover, rehearse and do some core, functional and mobility work. I can’t train and work on strength every alternate day while on tour like I do at home normally.
