Ever since my best buddy left me, it looked like I had lost track of life and time. It was very bad and I needed someone or something to give me support, encouragement and strength. And help me to look at the situation from another point of view.
Then came the big day. I had an opportunity to perform on stage but was very nervous, scared and low on self belief. With no idea of how to overcome the fear.
Then followed a small exchange with my beloved Guruji, on the side wing, just before my scheduled performance.
'I am afraid Guruji' I said. 'No need to be. You are good and you can do it' offered she.
'No Guruji', me again. 'Ok, come along' said she and took me back to the green room. She asked me to close my eyes and reflect on something that I liked immensely and would inspire and give me confidence. It was a total blank at first and as I persevered, from deep within my mind, a beautiful memory floated to the fore. It was my favourite dance performed by Sangita Ghosh (SG) to 'Laaga chunari mein daag' on the show ZKND. For me that had been a 'Magical Moment'. It had struck a chord deep inside me. As I reflected on that performance, all my fear and nervousness evaporated and I went on to give a good performance on stage :)
Yes, even today I do watch her videos without fail before giving any stage shows or in any situation that makes me nervous.
She is definitely my 'Strength'. I call her, my "ANGEL".
