Mallika Sarabhai & Darpana Academy in Ahmedabad organized the third 7-day National Dance Festival which was held this year from April 5 to April 11. Murali Nair spent weeks on selecting the young dancers from across the country and remained on his toes all seven days to make them comfortable on and off the stage. Some of the dancers who performed at this event were Sinam Basu Singh (Manipuri), Vidya (Kuchipudi), Akhila Gopinath (Mohiniattam), Vijna and Renjith Babu (Bharatanatyam) and Mitali and Pankaj (Odissi).
