We Are One began as a spark of courage and a refusal to be defined by disability. Some of us move on wheels, some cannot hear or speak—but our hearts have always danced freely. What seemed like limitations became our greatest strengths, and what others saw as weakness became our art.
Our journey has been one of resilience, hope, and transformation. There were moments of doubt, of unfairness, of hopelessness—but instead of yielding, we chose to rise. Crutches became wands, wheelchairs became wings, and every performance turned into a story of empowerment, inspiring audiences across India and beyond.
Through relentless practice, creativity, and determination, we enthralled audiences, broke records, and earned national recognition, including features on India’s Got Talent and accolades from leaders and dignitaries. Yet, the true triumph lies in the change we inspire—challenging perceptions, celebrating ability, and proving that inclusion is possible, powerful, and beautiful.
From these beginnings, We Are One Trust was born—a platform where differently-abled and abled artists come together to create, perform, and inspire. Our story is just unfolding, and every new performance, workshop, and outreach is a chapter in the journey to make the world a more inclusive, compassionate place.
The founder of WE ARE ONE, many doubted my ability of an independent livelihood. My disability was a challenge more for others than me. Performing on wheelchair for the past 20 years has made me realize that the view of the world is beautiful even from a wheelchair. Appreciation and recognition came in from none other than the President of India & Singapore among other celebrities. Today, I inspire and motivate those who lack it in their lives. My art has reached across borders performing on various themes and ideas. My only wish is that differently able person never feel shame on their self because this is not a curse for us, this is boom for us. Only special persons has special things.
Dance is an art and this art is my soul – pure, divine and serene. Dance relaxes me. Today I am Asst choreographer of We Are One, Dance energises me. How do I dance? Well, on the rhythm of the heartbeats which is the best rhythmic music. My moment of high was when I received recognition from the President of India. My ambition is simple – live and let live. I cannot hear or speak, but I would like to ‘say’ this loud that never give up because life is beautiful.
The Choreographer of the Group, People say I was born to dance on wheelchair and crutches. I use them like the Conductor of an orchestra. I make my wheelchair dance as I wish. Some call me magician of the wheels! In the last 20 years, I have globe-trotted with my wheelchair and clutches by my side enthralling audiences all over. I whirled on my wheelchair and broke the Guinness World Record. The President and Prime Minister of India have recognized my performances. I never give up. Challenges excite me. I want be a role model to differently-able people. I want to tell them that with hard work, passion and commitment, nothing is impossible!
When I dance on wheelchair, I love life even more because it reinforces my belief that I am no less than anyone. I can create magic on my wheelchair. My family has been my strength. I am an inspiration to not just my son, but to the world. My moments of pride of being recognised by the President of India will always be held close to my heart. I believe that nothing is impossible and all that is important is to pursue one’s dreams with a pure heart and complete dedication.
Fifteen years of performing on the wheelchair and crutches have given me the confidence to say that there is nothing called disability. We may not have able feet like most others, but we have additional feet in the form of the wheels of our chair. Performances across the world have taught me many valuable lessons in life. I in turn want to inspire those differently-abled and able-bodied individuals who give up without a fight.
I believe every person is talented. Some discover it and some don’t. 13 years of performing with the group has led me across borders expanding my vision of life. My values are my strength and dancing is my core. My disability of not able to hear or speak has never come in the way of my dreams. Today I am an inspiration to others. I can proudly ‘say’ that I am worth it all.
Whenever any problem arises, I get excited because I believe that every problem has a solution in it. My disability was one such problem which became my strength. Having performed for over fifteen years on the wheelchair, I firmly believe that all are equal – abled or differently-abled. Performing in different venues across the world has boosted my confidence and today I am all set to become a role model for others.
Performing on a wheelchair over the years has taught me that nothing in life is permanent. While my disability may be permanent, I chose to transform it into my strength and ability. Working and performing with WAO has given me dignity, confidence, and respect in society. Today, I have performed on many national and international platforms, spreading the message that a wheelchair should not be seen as a symbol of disability, but as a symbol of ability, courage, and determination.
