Episode 8- In Conversation with Mandeep Virk Randhawa (Dance with MVR)
Chai with Rai (Ep.8)- In Conversation with Mandeep Virk Randhawa where we sat and discussed all things Dance with MVR. How she created a platform out of pure love and missing out on the opportunity to share the love of Bhangra and Giddha.
I also wanted to dive in how often when describing Bhanrgra the community fails to mention that it originates both from India and Pakistan. Rather than just Punjab in India.
We dove into the how Bhangra, Giddha and Boliyan are often boxed as Bollywood and the misrepresentation of it. We talked of the new age way of learning and teaching. What the folk styles mean to her and her close relationship to it.
We also discussed her work with of course PBN, Gary Sandhu and more. Her work with Phulkaria Girls and Tohr PD. Also, you have to check out the freestyle Boliyan and Dancing at the end.
