A Comeback

This time after a gap of 7 years i made a comeback to the stage................and the feeling was just simply amazing.When i had moved to this building 13 years back, i had started off as a participant in dance programs and plays during Durga puja.Then after a few years of tutelage from the then "Didis" of the complex i was ready to start choreographing on my own. The next couple of durga pujas i not only participated but also helped choreograph and direct skits but then what followed was 7 years of lull (because i had to drop all extra-curricular activities due to boards and other exams). In these few years i had completely lost the enthusiasm for such functions and was very reluctant when i was bullied into choreographing once again.I didnt even want to show up for the practise sessions but once i started dancing, everything just fell into place and i had a blast dancing to the rhythms. Everyone was surprised when i hosted the Antakshari on Navami night.This time i also did Dhunuchi Nach during immersion of Ma Durga.It felt great to able to do all these once again and was elated when everyone appreciated my efforts. But above all i finally came to realise that i really do enjoy being on stage.............. am just hoping to be able to put up more such shows in future.
