Portraying the role of an expert waacker and the team’s choreographer, Mekhola Bose in a press note shared, “Waacking is an amazing medium for self-expression through movement and emotion. For me, it has been an important tool for self-exploration. Collaborating with Sooni was a dream come true; she truly understands the art of storytelling through dance. Waack Girls embodies resilience, passion, and the raw beauty of self-expression, and I’m incredibly proud to bring this story to life with such talented actors. It’s an honor to showcase why waacking deserves a prominent place on the global stage.”
Rytasha Rathore, who plays the manager of the dance group ‘Waack Girls’, said, “From the moment I went in for that very first audition at Tess Joseph’s and met Sooni. I knew I must be a part of this show. I had never had the privilege of auditioning with the director in the room; the whole energy of the show was special from the get go. Sooni is a living legend. Working with a team as fantastic as this one is testament that manifestation does work! I’ve spent days journaling about the kind of work I want to do and the kind of people I want to do it with. Waack Girls is an extension of that, a gift from the universe, a true collaboration made with the purest souls.”
Waack Girls is set to premiere on Prime Video on November 22. (ANI)
