Who am I?

Nalini Prakash and Vijay Palaparty discuss identity, tradition, and the evolving 20-year journey of Godavari.

Three dancers, including Nalini Prakash and Vijay Palaparty all face each other in a circle, dressed in vibrant greens, reds and yellows while Vijay wears mostly all white. They are in a dance studio with warm wooden floors. They are all smiling at each other, reaching arms around while balancing on one foot.
