Biography
Chitranjan Tendulkar is an inspiring dancer from Sarangarh Bilaigarh in Chhattisgarh, India. Raised in the village of Devarbod, Chitranjan comes from a humble background; his father works as a laborer and driver in grocery shops, while his mother is a homemaker.

In his childhood, Chitranjan faced significant health challenges. In the 4th grade, he suffered a fall from a tamarind tree, resulting in serious internal shoulder injuries. Over several years, he underwent treatment at hospitals in Raipur, Bilaspur, and Mumbai, including Hinduja Hospital, but the condition worsened, leading to nerve damage in his hands and legs and resulting in a disability.

Despite these hardships, Chitranjan’s spirit remained unbroken. In the 7th grade, he participated in a handicapped dance competition organized by Asthit Badhi Taarth Baal Grih Mana Camp in Raipur, where he won first place in the entire state of Chhattisgarh. During the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in 2019, unable to go outside, he learned to dance by watching television dance shows. Encouraged by his family’s support, Chitranjan began to teach himself dance and continued to develop his talent.

His story is a powerful example of determination and passion overcoming physical adversity, inspiring many in the dance community and beyond.
