EXCLUSIVE: International Dance Day! Sagar Parekh Recalls His FIRST Connection With Dance On Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Sets; Shares, “It’s Much More Than Just Movements For Me”

Sagar Parekh is someone who has tried different kinds of roles on screen, and people have noticed that about him. But away from acting, there’s one thing that’s very close to him – dance. On International Dance Day, the actor opened up about his connection with dance and how it has a different meaning in his life.

Sagar Parekh On His Love & Connection With Dance

For Sagar, dance isn’t just something he does; it’s something he feels inside. He explained, “Dance means much more than just movements to me. I mean it’s expression, emotion, discipline and a way to connect with people without saying a word. It gives me a little sense of freedom and brings out the purest version of myself, I feel.”

Looking back, Sagar still remembers the exact moment when this bond began – it wasn’t planned or forced, it just happened naturally. He shared, “I still remember the first time I connected with dance. It was on the sets of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa after my first performance. It was the feeling of joy and energy that just moved me differently.”

Sagar: If I Had To Collaborate, My Dream Pick Would Definitely be Ganesh Acharya

That early experience stayed with him, and slowly, what started as a strong feeling turned into something much bigger. He confessed, “Over time, that feeling turned into passion and has only grown stronger. Today, dance is not something that I do; it has become a part of me.”

When asked about a dream collaboration, Sagar shared his admiration for a name he has looked up to for years. “If I had to collaborate with any choreographer in the industry, I think my dream pick would definitely be Ganesh Acharya, sir. Because of his energy, creativity and larger-than-life choreography, I think that style is truly inspiring for me, and I would love to do that. It’s not about perfection or pressure for him; it’s about feeling present in the moment and letting that emotion flow.”
