Chandigarh will have a Saroj Khan Dance Academy!
The acting block is full. Music too has found its stage. Now what was left was another national obsession – dance. Taking this dance pe chance is B Towns Masterji,Saroj Khan,who along with Leo Productions,the people behind Dance India Dance,is planning to bring a dance institute in the city. Saroj Khan Dance Academy,and it will be set up in Sector 34 by December end, announced Masterji. While speculations are that it might get pushed into the New Year,entry to the school will be purely on the basis of talent. Saroj would screen each applicant for different dance courses,and based on it,well recommend the course – primary,advanced et al, she added. As for other details like number of seats,course length and fee structure,its yet to be disclosed. But one things for sure – you will have the best teachers and best dance forms taught here, assured Khan,who feels that inexperienced candidates on dance reality shows end up as a laughing stock. Our academy would not let that happen, she added that aspirants would not only be taught dancing but will be trained to the level of reality shows.
Away from the politics and unprofessionalism of reality shows,Saroj has found herself a far better challenge – composing a mega broadway show to be featured abroad on the legendary danseuse,Amrapali. You know,I taught Vyjanthimala dance when I was 12 years old! She and I are huge fans of each other, Masterji is already in talks with Javed Akhtar for a script,AR Rahman for music,Feroze Khan for direction and her favourite,Madhuri Dixit Nene for enacting Amrapali. Its a 500-year-old story,a classic with classical dance…its going to be a grand dance ballet. For sure!
