    Romani's were actually captured artisans as slaves from india by Invaders and taken to the west of asia then to europe. They were abandoned and thrown out of country(invader's country) by invaders after some centuries later. But due different complexion of physical features and loss of ethnicity they were not accepted in european countries. They were never acceped thereafter. then the term "Gypsis" was came into mainstream. but now they are coming to know of their indian ethnicity.

      I don't think that is completely accurate. Don't believe everything you read on the internet. They did migrate out of North-western India and were likely already nomads (banjaras) in India.

      Bro Kathak is not from Lucknow but it have one of the form (Gharana) which was developed in Lucknow. The Kathak have two gharanas, one is Jaipur Gharana and other is Lucknow Gharana. Kathak it self is very old form of dance and it came to Lucknow with Islamic rulers who took it from easter India while coming for Middle East or central Europe.

      And saying Kathak is not from Lucknow is like saying Kathakali is not from Kerala.
      Obviously it has gharanahs elsewhere but Kathak is very much a part of the identity of Lucknow.

    You guys really made me get into music and appreciate it more. As an Indian it has always been a part of my life, but more subcociously in the bg. I havent paid any special interest to it or even general interset till lockdown. I never had a favorite playlist or genre or anything back then.
    Lockdown i got bored and slowly started getting a bit more into music, but it was still less than a common person. Japanese music is what got me really into music and art in general. Before that, i didn't bother to remember bands or artists and wasn't fond of concerts, but now i have artists i admire and would love to see them perform.
    After i started watching you guys, i really started getting into it further, i always loved analysing any form of art, and now im consciously aware of the music form and enjoy it more.
    Indian music, as much as i loved it, i took it for granted. You guys made me see the beauty of it again.
    Im quite pessimistic and nihilistic, but art is something when i experience i think "i love humans"
    Hearing that phrase made me realize that, and i want to thank you guys for it.

    Romani people or "gypsies" are an Indo-Aryan ethnic group because their ethnic and linguistic roots are from India. Today, they are genetically like half Euro half Indian. The influence of Indian culture on Andalucian culture is not just the dance, but the instrumentation, vocalization, colorful costumes, etc. Of course, other influences also exists such as Arabic/North African.

    This was a pleasant surprise! Didn't expect this given the kind of unadventurous followers you have garnered in India.
    I had the pleasure of watching Aditi and Bettina (the first pair) live. I have taken workshops with Bettina and she is a hard task-master. I first discovered her through a Flamenco-Kathakali (not Kathak) fusion performance called the Killing of Dussasana where she played Draupadi. She visits India often and collaborates with different artists here.
    I have also had the pleasure of dancing Sevillanas (one of the Palos of Flamenco) to music by Indialucia (the last group in the video).
    As an Indian (with some training in Bharatnatyam, another classical form) learning Flamenco has been familiar and strange in equal measure. I warmed up to the guitar melodies and some of the basic dance movements easily. But, the cante took some getting used to. I would compare it more to Rajasthani folk or even Qawwali more than Indian classical singing. It can be raw, passionate and high-pitched and not always easy on the ears.
    And yes, contra-tiempo is super tricky and something I struggle with; but it is something I suspect Indian classical musicians would take to like ducks to water.

    Your next combination should be Kathak Fusion. Kathak fusion is a dance, it's still Kathak, but you dance to Bollywood songs. Like the song Slow motion, the one with Shreya in it. It's more of an Item song dance thing. You should listen to Kumar Sharma, he choriographs Kathak fusion dances like that. Sorry, I'm not good at explaining this.

    Romani or Roma are Indians from mainky Rajasthan and bit of Punjab region who migrated to Europe, America, South America etc and settled there as locals. They escaped via Hindukush mountains ( hindukush literally meant " killing of Hindus" by Mughals) Many assimilated as Europeans Americans and were slightly darker skinned and hid their identity and acted European American .
    They escaped to Persia in 11th century and reached Europe in 14th century

    Famous
    Charlie Chaplin
    Michael Cain actor
    Elvis Pressley ( was quite dark compared to Whites and hid his gypsy identity )
    Led Zep lead singer Robert Plant of famous songs Stairway to heaven , Kashmir etc you can see him.identify with Moroccan gypsy bands etc due to that reason
