Sangeeta Phogat: Dance Needs to Be Felt, Expressed Through Heart

Sangeeta Phogat, the wrestler who is currently captivating audiences on the dance reality show "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa," shared her thoughts on what makes a truly compelling performance.

Phogat, who is paired with choreographer Bharat Ghare on the show, believes that dance is an art form that requires more than just technical skill.
