Ignite Bollywood did a fantastic job in getting Kmart team members to help celebrate Diwali. Everybody greatly enjoyed the day and learnt some new dance moves too!
We love working with sports teams including Melbourne Storms and Essendon Football Club.
On 27th July 2018, as part of Essendon Football Club’s “embracing India” initiative, our Bollywood dancers, sitar player and henna artist attended Etihad Stadium to create a magical Bollywood experience at the Chairman’s VIP dinner.
We began the evening by greeting guests as they entered in a traditional Indian style by placing red “tikka’s” or victory dots on their forehead. It must have worked because that night Bombers won!
Our sitar player was providing ambient classical Indian music as the guests mingled and had a few drinks. Our Bollywood dancers later showcased an unusual style of Bollywood performance. Instead of a graceful and dainty performance, we opted for a wild, raw and energetic performance in line with Aussie rules footy. It was intense with influences from Punjabi Bhangra, hip hop and also some wild Indian street dancing.
The audience loved the show!
