Vaibhavi Merchant answers if it is challenging to make Salman Khan dance: ‘If you give him steps out of his comfort zone…’

Meanwhile, choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant, who composed the steps for “Leke Prabhu Ka Naam“, recently shared insights into her experience working with the two actors and opened up about whether it was a challenge to make Salman Khan dance.

“It is a challenge for anyone to make him dance if you give him steps out of his comfort zone in terms of his body language, body structure and his physicality,” she said during a chat with DNA.

“You must understand the psyche of the actor and if he is comfortable doing those steps. You need to bring in something that will excite both, Salman and his audiences. Our cinema is about envisioning our superstars to come and do something which is beyond larger than life, and that’s what I always attempt to achieve,” Vaibhavi added.

The National Award-winning choreographer also hailed Katrina Kaif and said, “I have known Katrina even before she joined films. She had briefly come in through someone to train. She has made an immense growth since then and with the amount of hard work she puts in, she has always been at the forefront through her dancing skills.”

Referring to the controversy surrounding the “Besharam Rang” track in Siddharth Anand’s Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone-starrer Pathaan, she said: “Whatever happened with Besharam Rang, eventually in hindsight, it did what it needed to do, which is it generated not just a conversation but created a havoc.”

“The good part is that the people who believed in it were answering on all our behalf, people realised that it was completely baseless and unnecessary. I was amused by the radicality of it because there are far more things happening in the world which need immediate attention and an actress’ costume colour was the least of it,” she observed.
