Sri Lankan Odissi Dancer Shares Her Story of Performing with Michael Jackson

​Yamuna Sangarasivam, a talented Odissi dancer, reveals how she landed a spot in Michael Jackson’s iconic "Black or White" music video.

Initially hesitant to audition, she was encouraged by her parents to take the leap and showcase the classical Indian dance form on a global stage.

​A week later, she received the life-changing call: Michael Jackson himself wanted to perform a duet with her. Sangarasivam describes the experience as "amazing" and "exciting," marking a historic moment where classical tradition met pop royalty.
