Derived from the word &lsquo;toro&rsquo; for bull and &lsquo;vaca&rsquo; for cow, the dance is about a hunter, lost in the countryside, imitating the gait of the animal he has come to hunt. While Khan plays the warrior, Galvan plays the hunted. Speaking to Sunday mid-day, the two share what the audience should watch out for in the 70-minute performance.
When: October 8, 7 PM Where: Jamshed Bhabha Theatre, NCPA Marg, Nariman Point Entry: Rs 500, Rs 1000, Rs 1500 Call: 22824567
