 Actors celebrate their love for Dance on International Dance Day!

Dance is more than just movement. It is joy, passion, and a celebration of life. For

many, it is a way to stay fit or express emotions, but for some artists, it is a heartfelt

connection that fuels their spirit. This International Dance Day, TV actors share their

deep love for dance, the happiness it brings them, and how it continues to shape

their artistic journeys. These include Neeta Mohindra (Kailasha Bua, Bheema), Sapna

Sikarwar (Bimlesh, Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Shubhangi Atre (Angoori Bhabi,

Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai). Neeta Mohindra, who plays Kailasha Bua in Bheema, shares,

“Dance is pure joy to me and my soul’s favourite way to express itself. It has been a

constant companion throughout my life in theatre and television. From classical forms

like Bharatanatyam and Odissi to the high-spirited beats of Bhangra and Gidda, every

style has brought me closer to myself. Dance, for me, is emotion in motion. Whether I

am on stage or just dancing alone at home, it fills me with peace, energy, and a sense

of belonging. It is not just something I enjoy, it is something I need the most when I

feel happy and want to express that (laughs).”

Sapna Sikarwar, who plays Bimlesh in Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, adds, “Dance has

always been my happy place. Before becoming an actor, I used to choreograph college

events, cultural shows, and even weddings! Every form from Kathak to Bollywood has

taught me how to feel deeply and express with honesty. I still remember the thrill of

performing my first solo when my heartbeat synchronised with the music, the lights,

and the applause. Even now, I love choreographing my scenes and slipping in a few

moves between shoots. Dance lifts my spirit as it is fun, freeing, and fuels the

performer in me.” Shubhangi Atre, who brings Angoori Bhabi to life in Bhabiji Ghar

Par Hai, says, “Dance has always been close to my heart, it is where I feel most alive.

My Kathak training taught me grace and discipline, but more than that, it gave me a

way to express myself fully. I danced Lavni, Garba, and Bollywood, and I love them

all. I, at times, also Choreograph dance sequences in our show, and it makes me feel

more energetic. No matter how hectic the day is, just a few moments of dancing bring

me joy and peace. For me, dance is not just a skill, it is an emotion, a rhythm that

lives inside me.”
