Parde Mein Rehne Do by Enette D'souza

In this evocative semi-classical dance production by Enette D’Souza, witness the journey of a young dancer torn between inherited tradition and the courage to discover her own artistic voice. 

Born into a world where tradition is revered and change is resisted, Saher grows up believing dance is an inheritance to preserve, never question. But as her artistry evolves, so does her desire to break free from the expectations surrounding her. 

Parde Mein Rehne Do follows Saher’s journey as she struggles with the tension between honoring her roots and discovering a movement language that reflects her individuality. In questioning tradition, belonging, and rebellion, she begins to redefine what artistic freedom truly means. 

Performed by Mumbai-based dancer and choreographer Enette D’Souza, the work explores identity, courage, and transformation with emotional honesty and striking physicality. Drawing from Kathak while blending classical and contemporary movement vocabularies, Enette brings technical finesse and expressive depth to this powerful story of self-discovery.
