Despite hearing phrases like 'Ghumar is not for men' for many years, one young man started dancing at the age of twelve and has never stopped.
For twelve years, he faced harassment regarding his identity, masculinity, and family. However, with each performance, the criticism gradually transformed into recognition and approval.
His mother supported his costumes and content, while his father simply told him: 'If you enjoy doing this, do it.' This support gave him the confidence to continue his path.
Today, Ghumar is not just a dance for him; it is an integral part of his personality and a reminder that dance has no gender restrictions, belonging to anyone who loves it.
