India is a cultural integration of various religions, traditions and practices. Different regions have different dance forms which play a significant role. Red and white attire - is Oddisi dance; then couple dansing Bhangda which is famous in bollywood, bottom couple are performing "Kathak", and the Lady in blue is performing "BharatNatyam". This is a perfect gift for anyone wanting to represent the flavours of India.

Dance during Mughal Era:Traditional Dance continued in this period both in the north and in the south. Kathak was a new dance that had developed during this period. But the art was not pursued purely from an aesthetic point of view. Kathak is the only Indian dance form to have been directly and deeply impacted by the arrival and rule of northern and central India by the Mughal, an Islamic dynasty from Persia. Kathak is legitimately both Hindu and Islamic, and unique in having a historical link to a religion that pretty much ‘officially’forbids dance and music!
