Bollywood
Topaz Event Entertainment provides professional Bollywood dancers who are able to put on an energetic performance of exciting, up-tempo dances to Bollywood hits, ranging from “evergreen” songs from Bollywood’s Golden Age to today’s blockbusters!
Rajasthani
One of Topaz Event Entertainment’s unique offerings is Rajasthani music and dance! The arts of the Rajput regions of Rajasthan, the land of kings, come alive with Topaz’s artists who have studied with the masters in the region. The only performing arts group in the Toronto area to have studied intensively in Rajasthan, India, Topaz features dancers who can perform the Kalbeliya style of dance from the once-nomadic tribes of the Thar desert. We also offer the Chari and Bhavai dance styles in which our dancers perform while balancing pots on their heads!
Additionally, we feature musicians who perform some rare Rajasthani folk instruments including the Poongi (the snake charmer instrument, also known as “Been”) and the Alghoza, a double flute common to the Thar desert region of western India and eastern Pakistan!
