Hema Malini wowed the crowd with a ballet that was inspired by the Ganges. During her freestyle dance show at the NCPA ground, which also included a few aerial tricks, Hema transformed into Ganga. Esha Deol, her actress daughter, has since written a letter praising Hema for her original stage performance.

Esha tweeted, “Watched my mum @dreamgirlhema perform Ganga on stage. Absolutely remarkable performance, visually stunning with a very strong message on our environment and river restoration. Must watch her next show. Love you mamma…”

Before bringing the ballet to Mumbai, Hema had previously done it in Nagpur and Pune. She had previously said to ANI, when asked about the dance performance, “I have performed different types of ballet dances around the world, and they have been liked by the public. We represent our culture by enacting characters from our mythology like Durga, and Radha Krishna in pure classical form. But, in this ballet on River Ganga, we can’t put a very classical dance. So, you get to see a very free style of beautiful dances.”

Hema posted a video from one of her earlier performances before the event to give a glimpse of Ganga. Hema had said, “Basically, it’s a dance ballet on River Ganga by me to spread awareness regarding the cleanliness of River Ganga. It was the initiative of Sushma Swaraj, and she wanted it to happen in Banaras.”

“Ganga is ‘Dev Nadi’. She (Goddess Ganga) is coming from heaven for the benefit of humanity, and wherever the river flows, it is beautiful. It is very important to keep such a river clean. Not just Ganga, I would say, every river in the country should be kept clean. That’s what the concept of this ballet is,” Hema said.
