actually trying to speed up the process just took a lot longer and had to call backup 😅 #gurwm #kuchipudi #reelsindia #skincare #newmusic #sundayreset #kuchipudicostume #makeup #dancemakeup #getunreadywithme #OSEAPartner

teaching abhinaya brings out the best in me hands down. and i have to admit it's sometimes more fun than performing the rehearsed version. living in your imagination and adding subplots and characters is a different kind of thrill. plus translating some of these old school nonverbal expressions into modern english gets pretty funny and it's always a good time 😅  i'm forever grateful to the beauitful dance community that continues to join in all these endeavors with me! I learn so much from you all 💜  thank you to @Origins Championship for having me host this workshop! #kuchipudi #danceworkshop #behindthescenes #workshop #abhinaya #expression #teacher #danceteacher #kuchipudidance #indianclassicaldance #pov #storytime #swini

I think we all saw this coming 😅 aaand...who knows the song I mixed this with? 👀 (find out the answer by listening to 'Aatma' the Origins 2024 Championship Mixtape hosted by @Sidd Kel @Origins Championship ! ) #familystar #kuchipudi #kuchipudidance #choreography #vijaydevarakonda #mrunalthakur #mixtape #newmix #telugu #telugumovie #telugusong #swini

90% of my camera roll is bad takes and mistakes. this is the one thing i don't love about creating videos and prefer an onstage performance. it's easier to immerse yourself in the character on stage knowing that it's an all or nothing experience. the flexibility of knowing you can retry multiple times during filming really gets to your head as you can see 🫠 #bloopers #mistakes #outtakes #expression #pov #storytime #abhinaya #dancelife #kuchipudi #kuchipudidance #swini

My dance performance/shoot days are easily always 10+ hours long. So I need my makeup to last through it all! Doing my skin prep 2 hours before gives the skincare to really set so many makeup goes on and stays on!

but real talk: are we actually creating a safe space for the students to want to come back? or have we scared them off with outdated teaching methods, leaving a negative impact? 🤔 #teacher #teacherlife #indianclassicaldance #danceclass #danceteacher #foodforthought #dance #dancelife #teachersbelike #swini

the show must go on? 🥴 #kuchipudi #indianclassicaldance #costume #swini #dancelife #dancer

you know that feeling when something so random works out so well you're just in a state of shock?  'Nijamena' - Brindavanam 'I'm Good (Blue)' - David Guetta ft Bebe Rexha #telugu #telugusong #jrntr #davidguetta #blue #beberexha #thaman #telugumashup #edm #valentines #valentinesday #nostalgia #tollywood #swini
