Dancers are said to be ‘The window to the society’, it is their moral responsibility to show what is happening, what is not happening, what can be spoken or what cannot be spoken. Kathak exponent Aditi Mangaldas is one such artist who from the start of her illustrious dance career has been speaking of the unspoken and this time she has hit the nail on its head with her show Forbidden, which speaks of female sexual desires, a topic which is always suppressed, hidden and often disgraced in the world at large.
