Choreography is all about synchronization and flow. The choreography we see on screen was all conceived from the imaginations of those people known as choreographers. Their influence is great and for many of us it touches emotions. from Urmila dancing on the beach in Tanha Tanha [Rangeela] to Zeenat Aman dancing drunk in Dum Maro Dum [HRHK]. Here I salute these best choreographed songs. enjoy!
Koi Kahe Kehta Rahe [Dil Chahta Hai]. I am a huge fan of Farah Khan and in this video she even makes akshaye khana(one of the worst dancers) shine. The song is upbeat and lively and farah wastes no time in getting down with it! KUDOOS!
Ek Pal Ka Jeena [Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai]. what happens when u put the best choreographer and the best male dancer in bollywood together? u get nothing but jaw-dropping dancing! thats exactly what happened when farah khan teamed up with hrithik roshan. I remember first seeing this video and thinking to myself'is farah the goddess of dance?' SUPERB!
Chaiyya Chaiyya [Dil Se]. did somebody say farah khan? yes it is! the mere fact that she can make people dance on a train says something. she made me want to go jump on a train and start dancing. this is perhaps shah rukh's best dancing yet and malaika became a over night success. just think of how many careers farah has launched.
Rangeela Re [Rangeela]. this was not farah khan but another khan. ahmed khan. I heard he had 6 months to work on the songs from rangeela and I must say those were the best 6 months ever spent! every single move in this video is sheer ELEGANCE! original and not to mention bedazzling! urmila shines like a new penny in this video. even down to the clown was break dancing. choreography will never be the same because of this video.
Rang De [Thakshak]. farah khan proves her versatility by doing this classical number. tabu has never looked so graceful on screen. her moves are smooth and precise. I can't get over that gold sari! A MASTERPIECE!
Badi Mushkil [Lajja]. sure we can all agree that madhuri is the best dancer in bollywood. this video is no exception. from the opening solo dance to the backup dancers and later joined by manisha, madhuri blows u away! the steps are hard and I can't tell u how many times I fell down on the floor just trying to immitate them. choreographed by ganesh acharya. whats so impressive is that he did all the songs from lajja. aa hi jaiyye deserves an honourable mention. MADHURI RULES!
Maar Dala/Dola Re Dola [Devdas]. madhuriji again, this time in two classical numbers choreographed by saroj khan. I love these videos! saroj khan is perhaps the best when it comes to classical numbers. the way she made madhuri move across the floor in maar dala and the way she made ash move her waist in dola re. WOW! aishwarya graces the screen in dola re with madhuriji. who dances better? madhuriji ofcourse! cheers to ash for keeping up with mrs. nene.
Dilbar Dilbar [Sirf Tum]. mudhuri maybe the best but sushmita is a close second. whenever I see this song on tv I jump to my feet and dance along. whats so great about this video is that the moves are very easy and original, but u can always trust farah khan to put her magical touch on it. REPLAY!
Aankh Milaoongi [Fiza]. farah and karishma make a deadly combination. the way karishma looked in that tight black leather suit. wow! and to top it off the slick moves of farahji. karishma moves like britney spears and I had to keep reminding myself that it wasn't britney but karishma. HATS OFF TO FARAH KHAN!
Kay Sera Sera [Pukar]. I must be honest-i've never heard of prabhu deva before but after seeing this video I have the utmost respect for this guy! do I need to say anything more?!
