Old Dance finds New Home. (A video preview on Aditi and her students at MUDRA's performance on October 4th, 2009 )

-Columbia Missourian

 

Aditi's movements are very flexible and agile and her stances are very picturesque. The much performed items of Odissi were rendered with competence and ease  and charmed an audience consisting of both Indians and foreigners.

-The Statesman

 

Aditi depicted the difficult traits of pure dance set to a varied tempo while her acting was reinforced with harmonised movements and expressions.

-The Statesman

 

Aditi's forte is 'Abhinaya' or expression the most complex aspect in Indian classical dance forms. This Indian classical dancer not only has a deep understanding of 'Abhinaya' but also handles her expressions with remarkable maturity.

- The Asian Age

 

This Odissi danseuse took on a divine grace on appearing on the stage and portraying Lord Shiva.

-The Eastern Age

 

Aditi's moving depiction was proof of her ability to switch forms among the various possibilities that the dance form throws up for exponents.

-Times of India

 

The compositions of all three items in 'Teen Katha' had a distinct flavour while the dramatised sequences in Dashavataar offered a glimpse of her power as a choreographer.

-The Statesman

 

Aditi Bandyopadhyay's 'Teen Katha' enthralled the audience.
