Bollywood choreography simpler than that of dance show
Mumbai Nov 1 (IANS) Renowned dancer Mudassar Khan one of the judges of the dance reality show "Dance India Dance" says Bollywood choreography is much simpler than of a dance reality show.
The dancer was present at the launch of the new season of "Dance India Dance" along with acclaimed dancer-choreographer Mini Pradhan and Deepak Rajadhyaksha Deputy Business head of Zee TV.
Asked if anyone can match the high level of dancing like those participants Khan told the media: "There is a huge difference between Bollywood dance choreography and an act in our show DID. When we choreograph a dance in Bollywood we have to keep it simple so that from an old man to a little kid everyone can easily dance; it is a commercial style. But on a show like DID the standard is high because it is a dance competition."
He also added: "The good thing is when Bollywood superstars come on our show they asked us to choreograph such dance... they also want to try. So in a way they get inspired by our show to try new and different dance style."
In the response to the same Mini said: "I agree with Mudassar. We have some movie stars like Tiger Shroff who is great with B-boying and different stunts we have Shahid Kapoor who is fablous with break dance and body movements as he is also a trained dancer. So yes we have actors who are also great dancers."
Though Grand Master Mithun Chakraborty and Master Marzi were not present they shared their best wishes on a video message with a mention of how excited they are to coming back on the show.
"DID" is coming back with its sixth season where iconic dancer-choreographers like Saroj Khan Farah Khan Shiamak Davar Pandit Birju Maharaj among others will come for a special episode to encourage new talents on the stage of dance.
While the entry of Mini is a new change of the show another new addition to the show is two popular hosts Sahil Khattar and multi-faced Marathi actress Amruta Khanvilkar.
The dance show will be starting from November 4 on Zee TV.
