My journey in dance began in the vibrant cultural landscape of Bangladesh, where the rhythms of Bengali folk traditions first stirred my passion for movement and expression. From those early days, I was drawn to the classical art of Kathak — its mathematical precision, its spiritual depth, and its extraordinary capacity to tell stories that transcend language and borders.

Pursuing my calling, I moved to India as an ICCR scholar — first to Rabindra Bharati University in Kolkata, then to Banaras Hindu University in Varanasi, the city where Kathak finds its most sacred resonance. Under distinguished gurus, I have deepened my understanding of nritta, nritya, and natya, while simultaneously exploring contemporary, ballet, jazz, tap, and Bengali folk forms.

As a PhD researcher at BHU, my academic work examines Kathak through scholarly lenses — documenting its evolution, its pedagogical traditions, and its relevance in the modern world. I believe that a dancer must be both artist and thinker. My practice reflects this duality: precision rooted in tradition, expression shaped by inquiry.
