The description "While helping a Dalit community build houses as part of a volunteer trip April 29 - May 6 2011, we found time for some of the equally important things in life: having fun, and DANCING! The kids in Chevuru LOVE to dance. Our volunteer group also loved this song, so Emily Bucherati, one of the volunteers, compiled footage of us dancing with the kids and created into a dance video to go along with it."
After seeing this, I wondered what happened tp 'praja natya mandali; the Andhra wing of IPTA. They seem to be operating still and have a few videos on YouTube. in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlLSmwvr1PY they seem to be cooperating with a non-communist group. Sumangala Damodaran on IPTA songs
