Stanford Dil Se was founded by Stanford graduates Sai Patil and Shalin Mantri in 2003 with the goal of fusing modern dance styles, such as hip hop, salsa, and jazz, with the music, acting, and dancing style of Bollywood films in order to recreate and showcase the essence of Bollywood and Indian culture. What started off as a medley of 7 male and 7 female Stanford students creating expressive dances to Bollywood music has blossomed into a team of 18 students who create elaborate, competitive 8-minute productions that incorporate background sets, props, costumes, acting, and dancing.
Dil Se performs both on campus as well as in national and state-wide competitions throughout the country. At Stanford, we perform annually at campus events such as Rhythms, Admit Weekend, We Are Family, Art Affair, and Parents Weekend. Outside of Stanford, our major yearly competitions include Bollywood Berkeley in San Francisco and Jhoomti Shaam in Los Angeles.
