    Dear Alva Virasat,

    Hi, thank you for such a wonderful festival. I am writing because I was one of the Odissi dancers in 2012 at Alva Virasat under Ramli Ibrahim, Sutra Dance Theatre. There was a video of Spellbound performed at your festival. However, the video has been removed from Youtube. It was called Spell bound Odissi Part 1 something like that. I would really love to have a copy of the first dance 'Saraswati Mangalam Caranam' that was filmed. Please with much hope and your help, I really hope I can have a copy of that video in mpeg emailed to me or by post?

    Am looking forward to your reply.
    Please would appreciate it very much.

    Warm Wishes,
    Michelle Chang
