He had practiced dancing before, but not in a formal way, and the school attached great importance to the show because government officials were coming to watch it and demanded that there should be no mistakes.

Sura and female students Kaya run-in for a long time, still in the school's audit meeting did not pass, he is very distressed, after discussing with Kaya, decided to quit the program, invite professional dancers instead. But at this time, and the time of the public performance is only half a month, school leaders are angry about this matter: their own school organized the program, why do you want to ask professional actors to intervene on behalf of New Delhi No. 1 Middle School does not have this ability?
