==Work==
Desi Hoppers was founded in 2015 by Palki Malhotra along with [[Shantanu Maheshwari]], Macedon D'Mello and Nimit Kotian through India-wide auditions, for the finite dance series [[Bindass|Bindass Naach]]. The show aimed to showcase the journey and struggles of forming a dance crew and performing at an international level. The show had appearances by the likes of Jaja Vaňková of [[So You Think You Can Dance]] and [[Step Up: All In]] fame, along with Indian choreographer and dance guru [[Terence Lewis (choreographer)]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mid-day.com/articles/bindaas-naach-is-a-little-bit-of-everything-jaja-vankova/16252158|title='Bindaas Naach' is a little bit of everything: Jaja Vankova – Mid-Day|publisher=|accessdate=31 May 2015}}</ref>

In an interview, Palki Malhotra revealed that the idea for the crew evolved during the days of [[Channel V]]'s fiction dance show [[Dil Dosti Dance]], where the four founding members had worked together.
