About podcasters:
Since childhood, Richa had been fond
of learning and enjoying performing arts, especially music and dance. She got
basic training in classical vocal and Bharatnatyam, but couldnot pursue it
while she studied to become a foreign language expert. But even while working
as a Japanese teacher and translator, she attended as many performances and
concerts as her hectic schedule permitted.
Rajashree’s tryst with performing
arts also began in childhood, when she performed in some plays and tele-films.
She learned Bharatnatyam in an early age and performed her Arangetram when she
was 12. She gave up training in dance and music to become a software
professional. Working in an early stage start-up, she experienced the pains and
joys of growing a company from close.
