The book is an in-depth exploration of how caste, class, and gender shape India’s learning landscape and educational outcomes.

As someone constantly anxious about the rigour and validity of my work, this mention means so much to me as I finish up my PhD. Huge thanks to the jury for this. (2/2)

Just spent a few wonderful days at the 2024 @PSinternatl conference astounded at the breadth and depth of performance research underway.
And super delighted to have received an honourable mention for my paper from the Routledge Award.

A Boeing's flight was once compared to the liquid rhythms of Manipuri dance! The recent #AirIndia 'safety mudras' reminded me of a print ad from the back of a 1960s magazine from a relative's personal collection, and that many of the old timetables used to feature Indian dances.

Looking forward to this :)

Happy new year! Here's an adequately timed post then, because it describes reactions to Prince Albert time in Calcutta, where according to Wikipedia at least, he arrived in time for New Year in 1890.

Only a couple of years before the 'official' launch of the 'anti-nautch' campaign, one can see competing attitudes to nautch as a supposed " monstrosity of immorality".

Hello. I am writing a news piece on the Chennai dance season and how/whether it is attempting to be a more inclusive, less exclusionary space. Do reach out if you have something to say about this, you know someone who could be a good person to talk to about this.
