Here's our video from Bhangra Fever 4. Big shout out to Daman for running a well organized competition, our liason Kieran for being extremely helpful the entire weekend, and Karthik for coming through tying our paghs. This was a big weekend for our team. I am extremely proud and thankful for every single person (on stage and off stage) who was involved in the process of bringing it all together in the short amount of time we had. A big shout out to all the new dancers at their first/second comps.

Feedback is always appreciated. We are a new team and are always looking for ways to grow as dancers. Thanks!

This performance was a good showing for you guys, a chance to establish yourselves. The routine was clean and folk. I loved that you didn't do some cutesy jhummar in an attempt to seem creative, you took a more traditional route and it was one if the highlights of the routine for me. You have a solid group of dancers, so now's the time to flesh out a more unique identity for yourselves, think outside the box in terms of formations and move combinations. I had a great weekend hanging out with you guys (not Gaurav, he snored too much), and I hope to see great things in the future.

I liked the way you guys transitioned from segment to segment; it was smooth and didn't break the flow of the set. Btw, anyone have the song at 3:41?

Karthik, we talked about this at Fever, and I agree. I'm personally not the biggest fan of all the overly cutesy stuff during jhumar, and took a different route out on purpose. And keeping with your feedback, we will definitely be adding some complexity to our routine. Thanks so far for the feedback and compliments guys, glad you enjoyed the routine!

I liked the routine. It was something your dancers hit and you guys executed. I talked to you guys about some execution mistakes at the end, but in general I think the biggest thing to go and do from here is to sync a lot of your newer dancers. Also, you guys have some cool ideas, but really giving time for them and letting them stand out is a big thing - the prep and the time doing something needs to be long enough for the audience to grasp. Congratulations on a great performance, and I hope to see you guys killing it in the future(With Ravi M :))

Great job! Refreshing to see a new(ish) team with a commendable level of dancing skill. It appears you actually took the time to train from the basics and build a good bhangra foundation. Keep working at that, adding "swag" or style, and follow Karthik's advice which I think was the best.

Couple of notes:
+ Strong intro
+ Sick vardi colors
+ 5:26 nice
+ Lot of good choreo
- Make 4:03 lower and longer (need at least 4 full counts)
- Some girls (particularly red) not picking their feet up in ending (8:49). you can try practicing in sneakers, that really builds strength and teaches you to pick your feet up

good luck!
