Professional Garba Dance trainers all the way from Gujarat taught the dance form amidst the crowd, & this was followed by a performance put up by DJ Angel from Mumbai. The crowd danced to the foot tapping numbers of DJ Angel.
“I had a great time doing Dandiya as the music set the mood. The best part was that experts taught us steps of the elegant Garba dance of Gujarat. The event exposed us Punjabis to the very interesting dance forms of Dandiya & Garba.” said Manpreet Kaur, a Visitor from Chandigarh.
