Amazing Aditi… I watched another icon Aditi Mangaldas… as she twirled, lunged, crouched and navigated the vast Music Academy stage for her command performance in Chennai… In an ensemble work called UNWRAPPED, Aditi and her marvellously trained dancers and musicians delivered a stand out show to a rapt audience… Her intellectual curiosity shone through at many sections, pushing the socially elite Chennai audiences to sit up and lean into the work… The well knit, impeccably dressed and trained musician ensemble were totally at ease during the performance… ‘Ageless’ is a quality that is easily applied to her.

The honesty that Aditi Mangaldas brings to her works is very much a part of her persona too… One of the most influential proteges of Kathak legends Kumudini Lakhia and Pt Birju Maharaj, Aditi always had a sense of what she wanted to achieve as a dancer. Like her gurus, she believes in looking at the wider world, never allowing herself to be boxed in by conventions.
