New Delhi, Aug 9 (IANS) Professional international dancer Lauren Gottlieb has dedicated her new performance on Indian dance reality TV show “Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 6” to Mahatma Gandhi.
Keeping the theme of Independence Day Aug 15 in mind, Lauren will dedicate her performance to the nation’s Mahatma. She will dance to the tunes of “Raghupati raghav raja ram”.

To prepare herself for the act, the trained dancer also did extensive research work, which included reading books, surfing the Internet and watching short films on Mahatma Gandhi.
