Reflecting upon life through Manipuri dance
Samina Husain Prema and Mohima Shwagota
Acclaimed Manipuri dancer Samina Husain Prema came across her student, Mohima Shwagota, nearly a decade ago. At the time, Prema had just started conducting dance lessons. Over the years, the two have grown together in their pursuit of classical Manipuri dance. In a candid chat with
The Daily Star, Prema and her protégé Shwagota speak about their bond, and more. Shwagota was in kindergarten when she first came to my dance class, mentions Prema. At the time, I had a small batch of five to six students, who are still very special to me. Shwagota has always been there for me in tough times.
