Bollywood's Best Choreographers

Bollywood's best choreographers

A Bollywood movie can barely run without dance sequences in it. Except for some classic movies like Black, Bollywood flicks cannot do without dance numbers. Let's take a look at some of the best choreographers of the industry.


Shiamak Davar:

Nobody thought that this back bencher would be such a big man today. Shiamak believes that dance has immense healing powers. He runs a very large number of dance schools across the country and has people of all ages attending his classes. He also runs a not for profit dance institute and trains underprivileged and handicapped children. A very amicable person, Shiamak has choreographed dance numbers in movies like Taal, Kisna, Bunty aur Bubli, Dil to Pagal Hai, Dhoom 2 and Taare Zameen Par. All of these movies are known more for their brilliant dance sequences than anything else.


Farah Khan:

Farah Khan, sister of famous TV comedian Sajid Khan has seen immense success in her career as a choreographer. She has hit movies like Kaho na pyar hai, Dil chahta hai, Kaal, Kabhi khushi kabhi gum, Monsoon wedding, Krrish, Dilwale dulhaniya le jayenge and Main hoon na to her credit. Farah turned director when she directed the movies Main Hoon Na and Om Shanti Om. Now a mother of triplets, Farah has decided to take a break to look after her babies. Let's see what this talented lady bounces back with!


Saroj Khan:

Saroj Khan shot to fame when she choreographed actresses like Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit. With more than 200 films and many awards to her credit, Saroj has shown her remarkable talent in songs like Beta, Chandni, Bazigar, Darr, Khamoshi, Pardes, Soldier, Devdas, Sathiya, Veer Zara, and more recently, Fanaa and Guru. Age doesn't stop this super strong woman; she may be a grandma now, but she is going to continue dancing till she can move!


Raju Khan:

Son of acclaimed choreographer Saorj Khan, Raju Khan has choreographed more than 1500 songs. The most popular of them of course are numbers from the super hit movie Lagaan, and Krrish.


Vaibhavi Merchant:

Ahmed Khan:

Rangeela, Rakshak, Pardes,Taal, Gulam, Bus itna sa khas hai, Mere yaar ki shaadi hai, Salaam Namaste Jab we met and a whole lot more; Ahmed Khan is truly a rare gem to Bollywood. Of all his work, Rangeels won himmaximum credit and he took off at full speed after that.
