 Shubhangi Atre reunites with her Kathak roots after 18 Years!

Shubhangi Atre, widely adored for her portrayal of Angoori

Bhabhi in &TV’s Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai, recently embarked on a heartfelt journey

to her hometown, Indore. This visit was special as it allowed her to reconnect

with her Kathak roots, revisit cherished memories, and reunite with her guru

after 18 years. Known for her innocent and quirky charm as Angoori, Shubhangi

has a deep passion for dance. She attributes this to her Kathak teacher, who

first introduced her to the classical dance form during her teenage years.

Speaking about this emotional reunion, Shubhangi expressed immense

gratitude for her guru’s pivotal role in shaping her artistry. Sharing her

experience, Shubhangi Atre aka Angoori Bhabhi said, “Visiting Indore is always

a homecoming for me. It’s where my journey began, and it holds a very special place

in my heart. While I’ve visited the city many times, this trip was incredibly memorable

as I finally fulfilled a longstanding wish to return to my Kathak class and meet my

guru after 18 years. Madhuri Dixit sparked my love for dance, but it was my guru who

nurtured it and taught me the art form. When I surprised her, the renowned Dr.

Suchitra Harmalkar, she had tears in her eyes. We hugged tightly and cried—it was

such an emotional moment. I was among her first few students when she began

offering private classes, and reconnecting with her was a dream come true.”

Reflecting on the visit, Shubhangi added, “Sitting in the same practice hall where I

once trained, performing a few moves, and hearing her words of encouragement

brought back a flood of memories. The walls still display a picture of me from when

we performed together. Meeting her reminded me of how important dance is to me. It

has taught me resilience and how to adapt to life’s rhythm. Every movement has a

story, and every story carries a lesson. Revisiting those lessons reignited a spark

within me. Guruji’s blessings and guidance have shaped not just my craft but also my

personality. This reunion was a profound reminder to stay rooted and grateful for the

bonds that mould us.”
