About the response to these videos Nakul says, “The dance videos I get sent to me from parents of their child dancing to the moves – the feeling is so rewarding. As an educator, it fills my heart knowing that my work is making people dance and lifting their spirits, especially in the times we are living in today.”

Nakul also spoke about the show, “I have been getting a lot of wonderful and positive feedback about the show in general. I love when the message includes a picture of a child wearing a Mira costume or holding a toy of a character from the show.”

The choreographer shared his Diwali message for all, “Diwali is a time when we remind ourselves of our many blessings and what we should be grateful for. For me, that is family, friendship, and love. It is also a time for forgiveness. Most of all, it is a time to celebrate and the best way I know how to do that is to DANCE! The Mira, Royal Detective Diwali episode embodies all this and much more.”
