==Biography==
Yamunabai was born in a family with meagre financial resources in Wai, in Satara district in the Western Indian state of Maharashtra. Her father was reported to be a drunkard and her mother resorted to begging for a living and Yamnunabai, being the eldest of the five children, assisted her mother to get alms by performing street dances.〔 At the age of 10, she joined a folk art group from where she had her first lessons of Lavani. Later, when her father joined them, the family formed a ''Tamasha'' troupe with her father playing the Dholki while Bai and her cousin danced.〔
Looking for better earnings, the family moved to Mumbai and Yamunabai started performing Lavani and film songs on the streets of Mumbai. Encouraged by the success of her street shows, she did a stage show, which launched her stage career lasting till 1975, when the popularity of cinema and diminishing audience affected the returns.〔 Though Yamunabai tried to revive her career once again forming a new troupe, gathering her nieces, the attempt was not successful. During this period, she is reported to have a completed a low cost housing project for the members of the Kolhati tribe, the tribe where she came from.〔
Yamunabai has shared the stage with the renowned Kathak guru, Birju Maharaj, who is reported to have appreciated her performance in 1975, staged in Delhi.〔 The performance helped to revive her career once again and she had opportunity to perform in other parts of the country such as Kolkata, Bhopal, Raipur.〔
