....have kept changing over the years.
His first love was an English Number from "Dirty Dancing", called "Time of my life". He loved the song as well as the video. We used to lie him down on the bean bag with the video & he used to watch motionless with extreme concentration. He used to love dancing to this song too with me carrying him & holding his hand just like in the video & he expected me to lift him up just like Patrick Swayze used to lift Jennifer Grey at the end of the song.
Before Ansh turned 1, he fell in love with "Bheege Hooth Tere". It used to feel funny hearing that song coming from the lips of a 1 year old little baby. That remained an anthem for many months. He used to sleep listening to that very song. I remember that on one of our first vacations to my mom's house in Bhutan, Ansh fell sick & this song used to be played in the middle of the night to help him fall asleep. It was downloaded in every one's phones. Even on a plane ride, this helped calm him down.
The next was the "Kajrare" phase. He danced to this song in his Mama' s wedding in April 2006 & made everyone so happy. He knew a lot of that song by heart & used to start from the beginning, "Aisi Nazar Se Dekha.........".
After this phase was the "Chak de" phase. He was completely in love with the song, the movie & with Shah Rukh Khan. He wanted to become Shah Rukh Khan when he grew up & used to watch the movie several times.
& now his all time favourite song is from Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic.It's called "Beete Kal Se". The joy on his face when we put on this song for him is inexplicable. Yesterday he surprised me by dancing to this song. After the Kajrare phase, he did not seem fond of dancing anymore.But, yesterday,he was enjoying dancing & his moves looked rehearsed & I think he has learnt it in school. He even taught me to wiggle my belly & jump while swaying side to side. When his Papa came home last night, Ansh did a full performance with a big smile on his face, soliciting his papa's approval. I had tears in my eyes.
Last year we had put Ansh into a dance class but he did not seem to enjoy it & we discontinued. Yesterday I asked him again if he would like to join a Dance Class & he said Yes. So I guess,I would try to put him into a dance class again.
