Story 💖:
Paawanee Shrivastava was born and reared in Jabalpur and is a doer as well as a dreamer. At the age of three, dance became her first love, and ever since, each step, rhythm, and stage has given her a new dimension of self. She has developed into a strong combination of grace and grit over the years, whether she is walking the ramp, strumming her guitar, planting a tree, or holding a microphone.
Her passion is for social causes, even outside of the spotlight. She spent her weekends as a child going to Sunday schools, visiting elderly homes, or giving necessities to the less fortunate. She still carries on that tradition today through the projects of her own club.
