Rahil Calcuttawala, Principal Photographer, rakimagery, covered the 2008 Boston Bhangra Competition(http://www.bostonbhangra.com/bbc/) at the Orpheum Theater.
Boston Bhangra is a non-profit organization dedicated to cultural understanding and mentorship for youths through a common thread: Bhangra. Bhangra has taken on many definitions in the past decade, and has a strong part in many individual’s lives for many different reasons. Their goal is to harness this positive energy, to give back to the community and grow as individuals and as a larger group. They have been committed to this ideal since 2000 when they were formed. Through the years they have grown with many different individuals being part of their Boston Bhangra family, including community members, and students of all ages from all over New England.
