She has choreographed the very famous ‘Varnam’ Navaratri shows (garba and dandiya festival), GGM (Garbi Galaxy Mandal) events in Rajkot, Gujarat and Rajasthani folk shows and events. She has also choreographed videos and film songs with Rajeshwari Sachdeo, Falguni Pathak, Shibani Kashyap, Lalit Sen, Raju Hirani and Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Recently, she was a co-choreographer and assistant to Sanjay Leela Bhansali for Padmavat. Light designed by Salim Akhtar, singer Heena Mehta.
