My personal equation with Maharaj ji had evolved over the years of learning from him, spending time with him and just observing him. When I joined Kalashram in 2002-2003, he used to say that my dance style was very robotic and military like. It was only after 6-7 years of training under him did he finally say, âab tumhare dance mein ras aa gaya hai.â And thereafter, whenever he would introduce me to anyone in a room, he would say, âye meri bohot khaas hai.â And of course, every time that happened, I swelled with joy and pride.â
