Pallavi has been a
disciple of India’s legendary dancer and dance guru, Padma Vibhushan
Sonal Mansingh, since the last 14 years.
Pallavi started her professional career as a
solo dancer in July 2003.
Since then,
she has steadily built up a record of scintillating performances at prestigious
cultural institutions in India and the world.
Back in
2001, the internationally acclaimed Sitar maestro, Bharat Ratna Ravi
Shankar,
spoke of Pallavi
“..she
is a wonderful upcoming artist - she is beautiful, she has all the correct
guidance and possibility and we all feel she is going to be a wonderful
dancer…”
The eminent
dance critic Leela Venkataraman noted that Pallavi represents an excellent
tribute to her guru’s training, which brooks no compromise or short cut...
On India’s Rashtriya Ekta Divas, Aug 20, 2004, Pallavi received the Rajiv Gandhi National Award for her achievements in Dance.
