Sindhu Kiran is a versatile talent in the realm of Indian classical arts. She is not only an adept exponent of the Mohiniyattam dance form but also a accomplished Veena player, a skilled painter, and a dedicated practitioner of Yoga and Kalaripayattu. Sindhu has particularly honed her expertise in "Abhinaya," the essence of performance, under the guidance of Guru Smt. Kalanidhi Narayan.
Sindhu's unquenchable passion for dance led her to seek guidance from one of the foremost authorities in Mohiniyattam, Guru Smt. Kalamandalam Kalyanakutti Amma, often regarded as the Mother of this graceful dance form from Kerala. She further enriched her skills under the tutelage of Guru Smitha Rajan and Guru Smt. Bharthi Shivaji, solidifying her profound understanding and mastery of Mohiniyattam.
