Talking about the same, Gautam said, “Theatre is for you if you truly want to act and test yourself. There is no room for error as you are performing in front of a live audience. I am not a dancer. In fact, I have no formal training in dance. I hesitated when the play came to me wondering if this will be my cup of tea or not. The last couple of months I have been training in and learning Kathak. What makes it all the more challenging is that I have a two-minute performance with Dhani Jhankal, who is playing the role of younger Aarohi and she has been training in Kathak since the age of two”
Meanwhile, the actor is learning Kathak from Anita Ordia, who was trained under the legendary Birju Maharaj.
