"The extremely rigid nature and rigour of Indian classical dances at times may be counterproductive, resulting in performance stress and anxiety rather than a channel for positive energy.

I explore movement as a source of joy, rather than a pursuit of a perfect choreography to be appreciated, applauded, and accepted by the norms of society. Rather I want to disrupt the norm and use dramaturgy to act out my lived experiences and ill treatment of patients within rehabilitation.

I yearn to tell relevant narratives to the present generation by challenging the practice of traditional storytelling that may indirectly conform to a society’s idea of ‘Sanism’ that 'targets individuals who have been diagnosed with or who are believed to have a diagnosis related to madness.'
