Our very own favourite Ashish Singha is back on stage — and this time, he has something truly special to share!

At Buoyant Performing Arts, we have always admired Ashish not just for his incredible movement and artistry, but for the passion, honesty and energy he brings to every performance.
Through his work, he reminds us that dance is more than movement — it is courage, expression, resilience and the power to tell your story.

❤️ We invite you to come and experience Ashish’s performance “Anek Lavya” at the Dance Bridges Festival 2026 ⏰ 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM 📍 Anuchintan Art Centre
