As an avid dancer, I’ve grown up to the jhalaks and lachuks of Shreedevi, Madhuri Dixit, and other well-known Bollywood actresses; there’s no doubt in my mind that they are as graceful as they look on the silver screen – and we all knnow this is because of the amazing help of their splendid choreographers!

In today’s day-in-age, one of highly acclaimed and internationally known dancers is none other than the Master of Movement himself, Shiamak Davar – an Indian dancer and choreographer whose forte is in jazz. He has choreographed many Bollywood movies like Dil to Pagal Hai, Taal, Kisna, Bunty Aur Babli, I See You, Dhoom 2, and the acclaimed film, Taare Zameen Par. Gossip-talkers are even saying that Davar will be showcasing his finest moves in Subhash Ghai’s upcoming release, Main Yuvraj.

Recently I had the chance to sit down with this amazing dancer but it didn’t last too long because he had me dancing on my toes right away!

Tirusha: Shiamak, this is absolutely a dream come true. I admire your choreography and dedication to the art of dancing and to finally interview you is awesome. If you could describe yourself in five words, what would they be?
Shiamak: Dance is music made visible.

You’ve choreographed for Bollywood films such as Dil to Pagal Hai, Taal, Kisna, Bunty Aur Babli, and Dhoom 2. What has been one of your most memorable dances?
Each film had some really special moments. It was great working with Madhuri in Dil to Pagal Hai, because she is my favourite Bollywood star. It was interesting to shoot a song…
