“Theatre is for you if you truly want to act and test yourself. There is no room for error as you are performing in front of a live audience,” Gautam said in a statement. Gatuam Rode Slaying with his hotness in all his roles on the small screen, the actor has never tried hands at dancing and definitely not classical dance form and he's clearly excited to now play a kathak dancer. “I am not a dancer. In fact, I have no formal training in dance. I hesitated when the play came to me wondering if this will be my cup of tea or not" -added Gautam. “The last couple of months I have been training in and learning Kathak. What makes it all the more challenging is that I have a two-minute performance with Dhani Jhankal, who is playing the role of younger Aarohi and she has been training in Kathak since the age of two" -Gautam The play is centred around four actors which includes Gautam, Dhani, Ravi Jhankal and Mita Vasisht.
