Actress Sharvari, has recently started taking Kathak lessons, and she credits her on-screen idol and ‘twinkle toes’ Madhuri Dixit for inspiring her to learn the dance form.
Sharvari, who made her big screen debut with ‘Bunty Aur Babli 2’, says, “I’ve always been in awe of Madhuri Dixit ji, she’s been a huge inspiration for me always wanting to learn kathak. Unfortunately, I started just recently after so many years of wanting to learn kathak”.
“She added, ‘But every time I would see Ma’am’s songs or even snippets on Instagram or dance shows, I would google kathak teachers to start learning. She’s been my idol and I hope I get to dance next to her someday! It would be an honour.”
Madhuri and Sharvari are both Maharashtrians, and Sharvari has always admired the superstar who ruled the silver screen in the late 1980s and throughout the 1990s.
Sharvari says, “I think as an actor you keep playing so many different roles that at the end of the day you don’t know whats going to come to help. But, of course, learning a different dance form will never go out of hand. It will bring grace; it brings rhythm in your body.”
