Rithvik Dhanjani is one of the most popular actors on television. Apart from acting, the `Pavitra Rishta` star also has a keen interest in the field of dancing. Whether it is a dance reality show or a reel, Rithvik is known to put his best foot forward when it comes to acing the toughest of dance moves. "I think every time someone watches me dance they say my eyes light up and they see my heart dancing which is actually true because every time I am dancing, I think I am in some sort of rhythmic synchronicity with my body and with the space around me," says Rithvik talking to mid-day.com on International Dance Day.
While Rithvik is a fine dancer who has honed his skills over the years, the actor never received formal training. Recalling his first brush with the art of dancing, he shared, "I was in the seventh grade and remember being fascinated by dancing on stage. I had a friend whose name is Sidharth Jawa. He was with me in the seventh standard when I was in Dubai and he was a fantastic dancer. One day in class, he came and swiftly did the handwave. I was so mesmerised and asked him to teach me. That was the day he not only started teaching me dance, but I saw him, got inspired, joined the crew and I started dancing on stage in school."
