Muskan Kumari, a 15 year-old Shakti is a 10th-grade student from Sikanderpur Ghosi. She was named Muskan by her mother ,who wanted her to stay happy always, but life had other plans. Her father, an autorikshaw driver and mother, a homemaker are her pillars of support. In a village where girls are often expected to do household chores rather than go to school, Muskan considers herself fortunate to have parents who are determined to see her become a successful, independent woman. Muskan is a brave shakti who chooses to rise above her family and background struggles.
Muskan joined Sarvam Shakti in 2018, determined to overcome her challenges and seize every opportunity for self-development. It was at Sarvam where she discovered her passion for dance. When she first saw senior shaktis doing Bharatnatyam she got interested in it and started learning Bharatnatyam gradually.
Her dedication towards Bharatnatyam dance is unparalleled. Muskan says, “Classical Dance is like a spiritual practice", it makes her soul feel really good. She elaborates about her first dance performance in Malviya Nagar, at that time she was very nervous, but as she kept on performing dances at different avenues her confidence level started increasing. Muskan’s resilience is strongly reflected in her classical dance moves and expressions. Her graceful mudras, like poetry in motion, complement her beautiful smile.
In the beginning when Muskan was hesitant to drink the Shakti Vegetable Juice but then Hemangi Bhatnagar, Chief Empowerment Officer explained its nutritional value which is made from 18 different ingredients like Amla, Aloe vera, Bottleguard, Spinach, Beetroot and different healthy fruits and vegetables, Muskaan embraced it wholeheadtedly and started drinking it regularly, now she falls sick less often and feels more energetic throughout the day.
Muskan says, “I am blessed with the love and care of the Sarvam family and I wish to make this family proud.”
Muskan Kumari’s story is one of resilience and growth. From overcoming societal expectations to finding strength in dance and improving her health, she embodies the spirit of a true Shakti. With her determination and the support she receives from her parents and the Sarvam Shakti family, Muskan is on a path to achieving her dreams. She stands as a role model for other young girls, showing them that with the right support and mindset, they too can rise above any challenge.
