The exclusive "Meet the Icon" event brought together residents of Gera's ChildCentric®Homes and guests for an evening of dance, inspiration, and community celebration. Families enjoyed an interactive dance session where children and parents took to the floor alongside Shiamak Davar.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Kumar Gera, Chairman, Gera Developments said, "Our goal is to create opportunities for children to explore diverse disciplines and discover their true calling. We believe a home should not only offer comfort and security but also act as a platform for growth--where young minds can learn, experiment, and shine. With ChildCentric® Homes, our vision has always been to partner with India's most inspiring icons, bringing world-class training and guidance right into the community and our teams have actively engaged with families to deliver this over the last 10 years. By bringing experts like Shiamak Davar into our fold, we are creating platforms that allow children to explore, experiment, and ultimately find their true calling."
Shiamak Davar added, "What excites me about this partnership with Gera's ChildCentric® Homes is the accessibility it creates. For families, world-class training in dance and the performing arts is being brought right to their doorstep. My advice to parents is simple, encourage your children to pursue what they love, whether it is performing arts or sports. With quality guidance and a nurturing environment, every child can shine."
A key highlight of the evening was an engaging fireside chat between Mr. Kumar Gera and Shiamak Davar, where the two spoke about the power of partnerships in nurturing talent and creating meaningful opportunities for children. Shiamak reflected on his own struggles in breaking stereotypes around dance and emphasised how supportive ecosystems, like those created at ChildCentric® Homes can give children the courage to follow their passions. He also praised Gera's consistency in delivering quality, drawing parallels with the discipline and high standards that have sustained his global academies for decades.
