Revanti Gala, a manager of a hotel, said after watching the show that the dancers had elegance and dignity. Their hand gestures and movement were beautiful and were similar to Indian dance. "I understand that the dances tell people principles: what is good, what is bad and how to do good things; the root of peace is kindness and righteousness."
