, might not be from the state, but she says she is fascinated by Rajasthani culture. She says, “The culture of Rajasthan has always been a part of my life, thanks to folk dances like Kalbeliya and Ghoomar. When I was in school in Nagpur, I would teach these dance forms to all foreign students who would visit us as a part of our cultural-exchange programmes. I was always fascinated by the traditional attire and jewellery that I would wear while performing these dances.”
