Titled Swan Lake, the first act was brief and effective. The dance consisted of a scene from Swan Lake at the queen’s banquet held for the prince to choose his bride. <br /><br />The dancers performed the Napolitano dance with their tambourines.

Looking pretty in their golden tunic dresses, the girls garnered a lot of appreciation. <br /><br />The Twilight Saga brought out the spirit of fashion with a strong sense of individuality. Inspired from the shades of midnight black and red, the costumes included long capes, gowns and corsets designed by Anita Kholay. Up next was a jugalbandhi between Indian classical and power jazz called East Meets West. This pulsating combination of two popular genres produced a new form of dance to the music of Swamp Thing. <br /><br />One of the major attractions of the event was a fusion dance to the hit Shakira song Waka Waka with a captivating combination of various dance forms. On the whole, the event witnessed the coming together of dance, fusion and glamour under one roof and proved to be a thrilling experience for the audience.</p>
