Mahesh's creativity has found expression in dance sequences for the silver
screen in Taal, Thakshak, Road, Boom... In commercials on air for Close
Up, Coca Cola...In spearheading the Kalaghoda Dance Festival 2005. In
using dance as a recreational tool, by creating entertainment with value,
through team work and workshops and running classes for professional
dancers. But why not more films? "I love Bollywood. But I want to work on
my own terms without compromising on my sense of self-worth, and I am
willing to wait. Remember, I am a Sindhi trained by a Jew!" Agreed, talent
and ound marketing go hand in hand. "I have learnt how to negotiate, after
observing the market, and am my best own agent because I understand my own
work and worth."
Life, with its trials and tribulations, has gifted him valuable lessons.
Today Mahesh he is a content man. With zero emotional baggage ("I have
learnt to forgive"). And believes that all matter has a function. "Death
is merely a transition from one plane to another, I understood that when I
lost my younger brother in a tragic accident. yet I feel his presence in
my life every moment." In the present, Mahesh continues to work with the
old. "For senior citizens and children, what's vital is the feeling of
being wanted. I also want to get involved in this respect with my Sindhi
community. I believe that theory is born out of practice. It gives me
great joy to know that I am making a difference. Doesn't life get a new
meaning when you feel useful?"
Here's a man for whom simply, dance is life.
