Cultural club celebrates India's 54th year of independence
Dancing; singing spotlight Indian heritage
By Amanda Beglin Kansan features editor
Valentino Almeida grabbed a microphone as the audience grew silent in respect for the evening's first order of business.
In front of about 250 audience members, Almeida sang a traditional hymn in hopes that things would go well at Saturday's celebration of India's independence.
Tradition surrounded the KU Cultural India Club festivities in Woodruff Auditorium at the Kansas Union.

The attendants, KU students and their families, were dressed in lengha and saris the traditional, elaborate dresses worn by Indian teenagers and women.
The eight performances mixed traditional hymns and flirty, spirited dances. Almeida, the KUCIC president, sang four hymns, including three which were Hindi hymns found in Hindi movies, he explained.
"In India, there are many songs in movies," Almeida said. "Hollywood doesn't do that. I chose to sing these songs because our people recognize them from popular Hindi movies. One of the hymns was from a movie made in 2000, so that's why most people cheered so loud: most everybody recognized it."
Nikita Negandhi, Shawnee sophomore, entertains a crowd at the Cultural India Club's celebration of India's Independence Day on August 15
The audience listened in silence to a reading of the events that lead up to India gaining its independence from the British 54 years ago.
Spotlights in the colors of India's flag — green, white and orange — shone on several performers as they danced to upbeat, lively Indian music.
Nikki Dulku, the evening's co-host and KUCIC cultural chair, danced in flirty conversation with a male dancer.
Thirteen KUCIC members came onstage in a final prayer for India before some audience members left to attend a new student orientation. Prospective club members then learned about the area grocery stores, retailers, apartment complexes
and KU organizations that could help acclimate them with Lawrence.
Almeida said KUCIC met once a month and Student Senate often sponsored its events.
