Revanta Sarabhai (born 2 September 1984) is a dancer, choreographer, actor and multimedia artist from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. He is the son of dancer turned activist Mallika Sarabhai and publisher Bipin Shah, and grandson of the Indian physicist Dr Vikram Sarabhai and dancer Mrinalini Sarabhai.

Sarabhai got his basic dance training from his grandmother Mrinalini Sarabhai and had his solo classical dance début at age eight.[1] He has toured with Darpana Performing Group since 1999 and also got training in a variety of folk, contemporary and martial arts forms from India and abroad.

Sarabhai got his masters in Performance & Creative Research from the University of Roehampton, London in 2011 and worked as an independent dancer and choreographer in Europe before moving to India in 2014.
