Due to the pandemic, many people were forced to work from home with no sources for entertainment. The theatres, parks, gyms, schools, colleges, malls, and other entertainment sources were completely closed to prevent the spread of the virus. Since the theatres were completely closed, the people were forced to look for alternative sources of entertainment. These sources included spending more time on social media or surfing on youtube, and buying subscriptions to many streaming platforms. The year 2020 saw a significant rise in the number of people buying subscriptions for various streaming platforms. Another streaming platform that gained a lot of attention worldwide was the Telugu streaming platform aha. This streaming platform has a lot of movies released in the Telugu language and movies dubbed in Telugu. Not just movies but also several web series and talks shows were launched and became an instant hit among movie lovers.

One such movie that turned many heads for its amazing dancing and direction was the 2018 musical dance movie Lakshmi. This movie is about the struggles faced by a ten-year-old girl who is very interested and talented in dancing but is restricted by her single mother from dancing. The movie is an example of why you should never quit on your dreams, no matter what anyone ever says to you. Lakshmi is facing restrictions from her mother when she tries to pursue dancing which breaks her heart several times. Vijay Krishna, aka VK, spots Lakshmi dancing and is very much impressed by her dancing skills. VK is also interested in dancing and helps Lakshmi join a reputed dance academy to prove her worth. Lakshmi’s dream is to perform and win the Indian Little Champs title, and when she gets selected for the competition, due to stage fear, she is unable to perform well. VK gets to know about this and asks the committee to give her another chance to perform well. It is then revealed that VK was also a contestant in the competition in 2005 and could not perform due to an injury. The story of two people who are great at dancing try to make their way onto the show is an inspiring story. A.L. Vijay directed the movie, and the actors of the movie are Prabhudeva, DityaBhande, Aishwarya Rajesh and Salman Yusuff Khan. Sam C.S. composed the music, and Nirav Shah is the cinematographer of Lakshmi. The movie was released on 24 August 2018 and was greatly loved by the audience.

The best thing that separates Lakhsmi from another dance film is the emotion and the struggle that all the participants go through.
