Accomplished Bharatanatyam dancer, Kalashree Janhavi Rajaraman is an inspiration to all dancers and all artists in general. Learning Bharatanatyam since she was 9 years old, she got the opportunity to perform her Arangetram in the year 2000 after years of hard work and dedication. After this, there was no looking back for her. She adopted dancing as her profession and in no time she was requested to become a Guru at Lok Kala Manch and a teacher at Ganesa Natyalaya, the place she learned her craft. She went on to perform, judge, and represent India on various platforms through her craft of Bharatanatyam because of which she was conferred with many awards and titles, Kalashree by Ganesa Natyalaya in 2004 being one of them.
