Dear friends,
Sutra dancer Kirthana Sukumaran is presently the only ‘survivor’ of our Dance Outreach Program which we launched 7 years ago, in Kuala Selangor. She came as a tiny girl of 9+ on her first class. The class was conducted at the Subramaniam Temple on the main road to KS town. Kirthana has come a long way since with a string of overseas performances up her sleeves. These include the Kumbha Melas in Ujjain and Prayagraj (Allahabad), Konark Festival, Lucknow, Ayodhya, Chennai and others. Thanks to her dedicated father, come rain or shine, Kirthana had never missed a single class.
Let’s hope both Saraswati and Lakshmi bless her in her future dance endeavour.
Ramli
