Accolade:
“Brilliant, uncluttered and sophisticated performance winning standing ovation…Sreyashi is lovely dancer with a svelte figure and thorough command over the Odissi technique.”

- Dr. Sunil Kothari, noted dance critic in Nartanam

“Working in the Odissi style, Dey displayed a definitive grace, but was still a study in contrasts. There was a light play of emotions across the face, a sweeping arc in the arms and a deliberate weight of the feet, all collected in a symphony of movement.”

- Jane Vranish, Pittsburgh Post Gazette
