livelihood
Akash Singh was fond of dancing since childhood. While practicing dance during her school days, she developed a keen interest in a particular form of dance known as Acro dance, which is a dance that combines classical dance techniques with precise acrobatic elements. . Belonging to a village, the dancer was not able to get the necessary facilities to practice the dance style, hence, he started practicing on the trees in his village. Talking about his early days he said,
I started my aerial acting from my village. For aerial acts you need height and this is not possible everywhere. So, I used to practice by hanging a piece of cloth on a tree in my village.”
In 2018, Akash Singh moved from Bihar to Mumbai to pursue a career in aerial dancing. He had gone there with only two thousand five hundred rupees. To further his dance practice he started practicing on a tree near a beach in Mumbai. Later, she started participating in dancing shows and award ceremonies as a back dancer. In 2022, Akash auditioned for Colors TV’s Hindi-language reality television show ‘Hunarbaaz: Desh Ki Shaan’, which was judged by Mithun Chakraborty, Parineeti Chopra and Karan Johar, and was selected based on his talent. During his introduction round, he told about his struggles in front of the judges, hearing which actress Parineeti Chopra became very emotional and promised to help him in every possible way. Using a voting panel, the live studio audience determined whether a contestant advanced to the next round during each performance. At first he was nervous about performing in front of so many famous names, but the judges helped him feel comfortable and he gave his best performance. While talking about this he narrated this.
The experience on Hunarbaaz was really good. When I came to the show I was very scared, did not know anyone, but now all the judges and contestants in the show have become like a family. I’m going to miss it all.
