Ms. Abirami Biography

I am a cancer survivor and I am passionate about making a difference in the world through dance. Bharatnatyam began for me as a means to overcome all my problems, and now I enjoy using this dance form to motivate other children just like me, to show them that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. I perform at various places, including a performance at a cancer awareness program at Egmore Hospital, to create awareness about childhood cancer and encourage children who are in treatment and show them that they too can live a better life. Apart from this, I have also performed at around 50 programs in various temples and stages. I love to choreograph routines, and I choreographed one for Bharatnatyam against COVID 19 for Puthiya Thalaimurai news channel. I am a strong supporter of the movement against girl child abuse, and to this end I have participated in a 6km marathon for the cause. One day, I would like to achieve a Guinness World Record. At the end of the day, I aspire to be of service to other people who are affected by cancer and also be a good example to other survivors.
