Rourkela: Driven by his passion for dancing, Odia boy Sumon Rudra is now in the race for the title of ‘Greece Got Talent’ in Athens.
A sincere and brilliant student, Sumon completed BTech from NIT, Rourkela in 2012. But he was confident of his brilliance in dancing. So, instead of taking up a professional job in his field as desired by his parents, he pursued his passion and joined as a dance lecturer in NIT, Rourkela.
After one year in the job, he went for PG Diploma in dancing from National School of Dance (KSOT), Greece, funded by the Ministry of Culture, Greece. Earlier, he had completed a dancing course from an institute in Bengaluru.
While he was doing the diploma, he came in contact with the Dance Academy in Athens. He showcased his talent there and has become a famous dance choreographer.
Now he has started his journey of popularising Indian dance in foreign countries through 1st Bollywood Dance Academy.
His father Dillip Rudra is a retired employee of Rourkela Steel Plant and mother Krishna, a homemaker.
