║Guidelines @ every JAI HO!║
Creating a safe & celebratory space is our number one priority at every event we host.
And we would love for you to be an accomplice of mine by greeting & treating everyone like you would like to be treated. With equality, mutual respect, and a big smile.
We know this does not apply to you because you are awesome but for the other people to whom it may be relevant, we have zero tolerance for bigotry, racist remarks, and generally reckless behavior including but not limited to fighting, inappropriate touch, etc.
Anyone found engaging in such behavior will be thrown out at once & may never be able to attend our dance parties again.
If you see something, say something by bringing it to the attention of the venue staff or me directly.

║Jai Ho! in the Bay Area║
Prashant moved to the US from India in 2003 for graduate school at Cornell University, and started DJing, teaching dance + hosting events after quitting a full-time job at Intel back in 2009.
Since then, he has traveled regularly across the west coast, Denver, and New Orleans putting on MAD AWESOME dance parties creating and fostering communities centered around celebrating world music & dance with a focus on South Asian culture.
While Prashant has been performing here since 2010, we started hosting Bollywood nights in the Bay Area at AURA back in 2016. Before COVID hit, we were hosting monthly parties at Slide nightclub under Ruby Sky in SF.

║Land Acknowledgement ║
We at Bollywood Dreams seek to practice deep regard and respect for the Indigenous Peoples on whose lands we have the opportunity to live, work, and play.
We acknowledge that Jai Ho! Dance Party in Oakland and San Francisco takes place on the unceded territories of Chochenyo and Ramaytush Ohlone peoples, who have continuously lived upon this land since time immemorial.
