🪔 About
Guru Bimbadhar Das is a respected figure in the field of Odissi classical dance, primarily based in Bhubaneswar, India. He is widely recognized as a dedicated teacher and guru, having trained numerous students, including the renowned one-legged Odissi dancer Nityananda Das. Bimbadhar Das played a pivotal role in Nityananda Das's journey, encouraging him to continue dancing despite a severe accident that resulted in the loss of a leg. He coaches students at Kalashram, an Odissi institution in Bhubaneswar, where he also performs alongside his disciples. Guru Bimbadhar Das has also contributed to the creative aspect of Odissi, having scripted a dance-drama based on the real-life story of his student Nityananda Das, which was performed at events like the Guru Dakshina Utsav.
