International Dance Day, also referred to as World Dance Day, is celebrated globally on April 29 to recognize the beauty, diversity, and expressive power of dance. Established in 1982 by the Dance Committee of the International Theatre Institute (ITI) in partnership with UNESCO, the day aims to raise awareness and foster a deeper appreciation for dance as an essential element of cultural heritage.

Speaking of Saba Pataudi, she is the daughter of cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi and veteran actress Sharmila Tagore. Saba is the sister of actors Saif Ali Khan and Soha Ali Khan. She has gained attention for frequently sharing rare and nostalgic childhood photos of her family, often digging out old pictures to offer her followers a glimpse into the past.

Whether it's a throwback of her mother, Sharmila Tagore, or moments with her siblings, Saba’s posts capture the warmth and legacy of the Pataudi family.
