Bikaner, Rajasthan - In an era where emojis trump Shakespeare, Rajasthan has decided to take things a notch higher. The strikingly vibrant state famous for its dunes, palaces, camels, ghoomar, and heat waves, has embarked on an exciting new journey - presenting exotic dance forms filled with symbolic interpretations that could give Dan Brown a run for his money. Shattering the norms, Rajasthan has launched a concoction of traditional dance styles and flamboyant signs, symbolising absolutely anything and everything under the scorching desert sun. Embarking on this dazzling dance with symbolism can be likened to an electrifying tango between Salvador Dali and Christina Aguilera. "The main objective is to ensure that people who are bored with normal dance expressions or who do not understand our local languages, can now enjoy our performances to the fullest," says Rajan Jhareela, the perplexed mind behind this revolutionary aesthetic frontier. Codifying this eclectic and esoteric form of dance, Jhareela has incorporated interpretive hat-tips to both the profound and the mundane, from the epochal mysteries of life and death to the banal tribulations of Whatsapp forwards. Henceforth, when a dancer twirls her skirt skywards, she's not merely beckoning the rain gods, but contemplating the soaring prices of onions. Skeptics are, well, skeptical. Classical dance guru, Padma Priya Bhajanlal was quoted saying, "First, let me make it clear, I'm no dance language codebreaker. I don't even understand the suggestive IKEA manuals, let alone this symbolism-laden dance. I’m all for the evolution of culture, but if we start doing a sherwani-clad moonwalk, even the spirit of MJ will want a refund on cultural exchange practices." To add jewelry to the elephant in the dance-hall, enthusiasts and critics across the globe are placing their bets on what Rajasthan's next bewildering move might be. Rumours of Jhareela developing a new culinary language wherein the taste of the daal-baati-churma hints at the current economic status of India, are simmering. Onlookers who watched the inaugural dance performance enacted exhilarating emotions, including confusion, wonderment, and a sudden craving for chai. Audience member, Ramesh Dhuppatta echoed the crowd sentiment. "I was mesmerised. I think I remember following the spirit of the dance when suddenly, two dancers started pretending to be typewriters. Or maybe those were scooters, I'm not sure. Anyway, I appreciated the satire. It certainly managed to break the sleep-inducing monotony of the traditional thumkas." Clearly, this new dance language has spun an intriguing tale of the cultural mosaic that is Rajasthan. Whether you choose to dive into this puzzling world of interpretive dance or idly witness the ride from the safety of your ignorance, one thing is clear – Rajasthan isn't content with merely housing the Great Indian Desert. It now harbours the aspiration to be the Great Indian Dance Laboratory!
