The Hindustan Times in India reviewed one of bis performances thus "Creation of a Male God. What a dance he performed for us! when he folded the leg across the thigh ever so neatly and subtly, in Mamaja pose or spun out different adavice with the beauty and grace of a temple sculpture come alive". This is a rare opportunity to witness a sublime fusion of music and dance.
