ITF Dancer Manu Sharma Ramgarh
Manu Sharma is an emerging Indian dancer from Ramgarh district (Gola Korambey), Jharkhand. Known for his dedication and self-taught journey in dance, he rose from humble beginnings to earn recognition by being selected for India Talent Fight – Season 6.
Early Life and Background
Manu Sharma was born and brought up in Gola Korambey, Ramgarh district, Jharkhand. He comes from a modest farming family. His father, a farmer, is currently paralyzed, and his mother is a homemaker. Manu is the youngest child among seven family members, and he shares a deep bond with his siblings, especially his two sisters and brother, who have consistently supported him emotionally and financially in his artistic journey.
Dance Journey
Manu’s passion for dance began in 2012, despite not having access to a smartphone or television. He would practice by humming songs and imagining dance moves. A turning point came in 8th standard when a new TV arrived at home. His admiration for Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan inspired him to imitate and learn dance by watching TV shows and music videos.
His first performance was on the song “Tu Meri” from the movie Bang Bang, which he performed during a school function in 2014. Though initially unsure of his performance, the positive response from classmates and teachers gave him a sense of validation and motivation.
By 2016, while balancing studies and board exams in 10th standard, Manu became serious about his dance career. Though unaware of how and where to audition, he continued practicing diligently for years.
Breakthrough
In 2025, after nine years of preparation, Manu saw an advertisement for India Talent Fight – Season 6 on Instagram. He filled out the online form, appeared for the audition, and was selected—marking a major breakthrough in his dance career.
Personal Life
Manu credits his progress to the constant support of his family, especially his sisters and brother, and remains grateful to the ITF Team for recognizing his talent. His story reflects resilience, self-motivation, and the power of perseverance despite limited resources.
