Episode 2 - Baharan: Friendship in the Arts

from Rhythm & Chai · host Pagrav Dance Company

Rhythm and Chai is a space for conversations that explore what lives beneath the work. This episode turns to friendship not as a concept, but as a practice that quietly shapes what we create. Urja Desai Thakore is joined by Akash and Hiren to reflect on Baharan (2005) and the relationships that held it. What began with generosity and curiosity grew into something deeper rooted in trust, listening, and shared experience. This is a conversation not about explaining the work, but about how friendship makes the work possible and how, in turn, the work reshapes friendship.
