Hema has performed the ballet in other cities

Hema had earlier performed the ballet in Pune and Nagpur before taking it to Mumbai. Talking about the dance act, she had earlier told ANI, "I have performed different types of ballet dances around the world, and they have been liked by the public. We represent our culture by enacting characters from our mythology like Durga, and Radha Krishna in pure classical form. But, in this ballet on River Ganga, we can't put a very classical dance. So, you get to see a very free style of beautiful dances."

Ahead of the event, Hema shared a video from her earlier performances to show a glimpse of Ganga. Calling it an idea of late politician Sushma Swaraj, Hema had said, "Basically, it's a dance ballet on River Ganga by me to spread awareness regarding the cleanliness of River Ganga. It was the initiative of Sushma Swaraj, and she wanted it to happen in Banaras.
