Recipient of many awards and accolades, Vaibhav has travelled the world performing and teaching. In Bharatanatyam, MARGAM is the physical as well as the spiritual journey that the dancer takes, from the first to the last dance, evolving with each, as it increases in intensity and complexity, showing both the artist’s mastery over technique and his complete involvement in the art form, till he becomes one with the dance. Vaibhav gives us an insight into his unique perspective on the traditional Bharatanatyam repertoire in his MARGAM.
