It is necessary to preserve our classical dance forms, says Poorvi Bhave

Poorvi Bhave is best known as an anchor, as an actor and also as a dancer. She had always dreamt of becoming an actor since her childhood days. She belongs to an artistic family as her mother is a singer. Instead of singing, she chose to learn classical dance and took proper training in Bharatnatyam from Dr Sandhya Purecha, a very well-known Bharatanatyam mentor.She started her career with acting and anchoring.

She has done many plays and stage performances and got accolade for her work. Recently Poorvi Bhave performed Margam (one of the forms of Bharatanatyam) in an event. Margam is a dance which many people are not aware of and that is the reason why Poorvi and Dr Sandhya introduced this dance form to common people and tried to spread awareness about it.

Nowadays young generation is attracted towards western dance styles but Poorvi has a different view and according to her India has thousands of year old tradition of fine arts, classical/folk music and dances and it is necessary to preserve our classical dance forms.
