Leaders in India Business Forum 2008 is proud to host Daksha Seth Dance Company (DSDC) - the contemporary face of Indian dance - at its inaugural India event on 5th December at Oberoi & Trident Hotels, Mumbai.

You are invited to register for the forum and the Indo-International Business Achievement Awards (IIBAAs) ceremony. By registering before 21st November 2008, you will receive a complimentary entry to this unique DSDC performance (subject to availability).

Featuring India's most extraordinary contemporary dancer and Indian actor, Isha Sharvani, the DSDC combines Indian martial arts with contemporary dance.

Under the artistic co-direction of Daksha Sheth and Devissaro, DSDC has won international acclaim for its dance-theatre productions, that bring together performing artists from many disciplines. Drawing on the wealth of their distinct traditions, Daksha has developed a strongly physical and vibrant dance language, and has created dance works that have placed her at the cutting edge of contemporary Indian dance.

Bridging the contemporary and the traditional, the productions of Daksha and Devissaro have their roots in research and training undertaken in the diverse traditions of Indian performing arts practice. The influences that Daksha has imbibed into her work have a pan-Indian quality - Kathak from north India, Chhau from east India, Kalaripayattu from south India and Mallakhamb from west India.

Isha Sharvani has been a full time dancer with the Daksha Sheth Dance Company since the age of 13, and has a reputation as one of the most exciting dancers in India today. Isha has also become well known in recent years as a young Bollywood star, featuring in movies such as “Kisna”, “Darwaja Bandh Rakho”, “Good Boy, Bad Boy”, “Rocky” and “You, Me Aur Hum”.
