Bhangra Meets Irish Dance | Gurdeep Pandher & Melanie Hackett | Co-Singer: Sarah MacDougall
Half in English and half in Punjabi language, along with Punjabi Bhangra and Irish dance fusion, we made this video to promote “unity in diversity” in Canada and the world. When we hear divisive news in the media that separate people on the basis of religion, skin colours, backgrounds, and physical appearances, we decided to make this video to spread cultural harmony and bring positivity in our society. Instead of walls, let’s create bridges! We may look different, but we all are one human race. Thank you, Sechelt in the Sunshine Coast (British Columbia, Canada) for providing us your beautiful natural scenery to make our video look awesome! Thank you for watching our video! Love and Peace!

Gurdeep-Isabella Bhangra at Yukon Farm on Lake Laberge (Whitehorse)
Lake Laberge, near Whitehorse (Yukon, Canada), is “nature’s gold”! This beautiful Yukon lake definitely inspired many resonant words in celebrated Yukon poet Robert Service’s poem, “The Cremation of Sam McGee”. There is a lovely farm on the lake’s banks, where my friend Sarah grows her organic vegetables. While filming subtle elements of farming life, with the beautiful lake waters so close to us, Isabella and I were inspired to do a heart-warming dance to a melodic Punjabi song. Luckily, Bhangra dance from Punjab has many branches, which allow for the expression of every kind of feeling. One of its branches is called Jhoomar. So, we danced Bhangra in the Jhoomar style in order to express the intensity of emotions which would be experienced during the reunion of two lovers. This reunion takes place in the beginning of the song. Later on, the dance evolves to reflect pure joy. We worked very hard to create this video and we hope that you love it!

I do believe that while maintaining our cultures and colours alive, we can connect cross the walls and learn about each other’s worlds. While our culture keeps us rooted, other cultures keep us connected as citizens of the universe.
