Popular television actor Himmanshoo Malhotraa loves dancing. From dancing at wedding and reception parties in childhood to performing on dance reality shows like Nach Baliye, he has done it all. Recently, Himmanshoo performed with his wife Amruta Khanvilkar in Ekta Kapoor’s hit show Kumkum Bhagya. In this brief interview, the actor talks about his experience and his love for dance.
You recently appeared on the ZEE TV show Kumkum Bhagya, where you put up a special dance performance. On what song did you dance and from which film?
I danced with Amruta, my wife on the songs Humma Humma and TU Cheez Badi Hai Mast. I always enjoy dancing with her. The channel wanted someone who had great chemistry, and hence we were roped in for the performance.
What inspires you to dance?
I love dancing right from my childhood. I remember when I was very young, my dad used to encourage me to dance at weddings and receptions. I used to feel very shy then but slowly and steadily I started enjoying it. It actually opened me up from being an introvert to someone who started enjoying stage performances. Until today I love stage performances. It gives you a chance to be heroic on stage when everyone is only looking at you and adoring you. It’s the best feeling anyone can get in life. Those few seconds are always to be valued and treasured. Dance inspires everyone to be happy and shed their inhibitions. I would just expect and request people to not judge anyone while dancing. It’s the most beautiful part of emoting in life.
What was the most memorable experience you had there?
Just meeting the whole Balaji crew, who was a part of Nach Baliye 7, was fun. It’s always amazing to get together, enjoy and relish old beautiful memories with them. They were a part of the most beautiful journey of our lives.
What are your hobbies and do they help you with your dancing?
I read books, enjoy meeting people and listening to music. The rhythm keeps playing in my body all the time once the music starts. They all are connected.
Which is your favourite dance form?
I love contemporary dance.
