World Dance Day, celebrated on April 29th each year, is a vibrant tribute to the unspoken tales that dance conveys. This day transcends mere artistry, encapsulating the essence of emotion in motion—a profound representation of culture, spirit, and the connections we share with one another. Whether it’s the elegance of classical performances that takes our breath away or the joyous, carefree twirls that light up a room, dance possesses an extraordinary power to uplift our spirits, inspire creativity, and promote healing. On this special day, Akshay Dev Bindra, the popular star from Zee TV’s Kumkum Bhagya, pays homage to the breathtaking beauty of this universal language. He reflects on cherished memories, sharing personal stories of how dance has profoundly impacted his life, highlighting the emotional resonance and transformative power that this art form holds.
Akshay Dev Bindra, who essays the role of Raunak in Kumkum Bhagya, says, “I still remember the first time I danced on stage—it wasn’t for a show or a film, just a random talent round in school. I forgot half the steps, improvised the rest, and somehow ended up winning. That rush, that feeling of being completely in the moment, stayed with me.”
Talking about the significance of dance in his everyday life, Akshay states, “Over the years, dance became my way of connecting with people, with emotions, even with the characters I play. I have danced in shows, house weddings, at wrap parties, even quietly in my room after a long day, just to shake off the stress. There’s something magical about how music takes over, how movement becomes emotion. On World Dance Day, I celebrate that magic. Not perfection, not technique—just the love for moving freely, fully, and with heart.”
So folks, get on your best dancing feet and have fun!!
