Come, Let's Dance

After nearly a decade, an unexpected phone call shakes Dia out of her dance rehearsal in New York. Mokarand, her teacher, her guru, is dying and she must return to Shamli town. The town where she grew up, the town were she learned to live and to dance. Also the town she left on an impulse, severing, ties with her parents and her people. It is a poignant and troubled return; not only has her guru passed away but the institution, that he so lovingly nurtured is in decay and threat of demolition. Ajanta theatre, the once vibrant hub of the community, the place where Dia's fondest memories are embedded must now be brought down because the local political authorities feel it is a waste of prime real estate.
