India's Got Talent Khoj 2, Punjabi Gatka martial art
July 31 2010 - Part 6/8 Reminds of Meher Mallik's graceful belly dancing from India's Got Talent Season 1; selected. Gypsy, tribal, folk, tribal American fusion, hip-hop. Trained by Meher Mallik. Kawaljit Singh, Delhi, of the Punjabi Beer Khalsa dal tal tarang perform Ghatka dance. This is the perfect stage for postmodern art where popular cultutre and its media, the cultural logic of late capitalism, comes to be subversively appropriated. The forces of mass power, aspiration, third world, global, globalisation, glocalisation come to hunt for hope and passion for undercutting and alterity of the revolution to come. The unity in diversity of India comes to find a voice in the talents of small towns villages from the farthest corners of the country.
