Mujra is a form of dance originated by tawaif (courtesans) during the Mughal era and traditionally were performed at mehfils and kothas. The dances incorporated elements of the native classical Kathak dance onto music such as thumris and ghazals or poems.
P.S: I know someone might have done this theme, my intention wasn’t of copying I got a request yesterday when I made the i’m idealess post.

Okay so, hi you guys!
This semester was crazy but good. I don’t want to talk much about school now because I’m in no mood for it. Stayed away from both my sisters for three-four months (excluding their one-day visits)- and I didn’t like it very well.
I need new perspectives in life. Newer friends, less judgemental people, people who don’t want to date me, people who don’t think I’m “too cool” because I’m okay with dirty jokes, people who don’t keep asking me about my personal life because let’s face sit- do you really care?, people who … are simply not like the people I know presently (with a few exceptions).
I want to be liberal. I want to be free of the worries I have of the future and just be happy with what I have. I want to learn to be patient and less angry. I want to accept adversities and loses because they, too, are blessings. I want to be as less bothered by people as possible. I wish people could understand that I need to be in my little cave for a while until I can load up the confidence that I drained while making new friends and starting conversations. I want to be inspired by myself and be stronger. I want to feel more and more close to God.
There’s so much personality development that I need to conquer and right now I feel powerless (in a sense that I’m running low on confidence and self-esteem- thanks to all the assholes in my life). I just hope that one day I will be able to achieve, at least, most of what I want to isA.
Hope you guys are doing well.
Hope you guys are well and alive.

Over the one month course of the Arnhem Mode Biennale 2011, the candle burnt down day by day, melting and transforming throughout the duration of the exhibition.(Via)
For some reason this made me sad.
