Trained under some of the doyens of the art form, she went onto winning the State Academy & then the National Scholarship Awards from Govt. of India and thus began her journey or as she prefers to call it her “sadhana” – a pursuit of the richness of this dance form.

With the encouragement of her husband & mother, she started her own Institution, “Prabaha Kalabhoomi” to train young aspirants the nuances of our heritage & culture with enriched discipline, creativity & vision in the traditional custom of Guru-Shishya Parampara.

She has been awarded with the Natyashri & Kala Kanmani awards among several others, for her commendable contributions in the field of Bharatnatyam through her solo & group productions as well as for the remarkable achievements of her disciples all across the country. Debjani considers her art form as a reflection of the melody of the soul & body and artistes as healers who can help the World rid of many ills, soothe minds & bring smiles.
