Four dancers are doing their stretches and warming up, a day before their final rehearsal for an electric performance in Mumbai. We are at the Sumeet Nagdev Dance Academy (SNDA) studio, where the company’s latest production, Dhrut (means speed) will bring together Contemporary, Breaking, Ballet and Kathak, synchronised with live music. The 50-minute production has been selected for the Erasing Borders Dance Festival in New York scheduled for August.
