Today, whenever the best, energetic and graceful dancers of Bollywood are mentioned, the name of actress Katrina Kaif comes on top. She has enthralled the audience with her intricate dance steps and amazing flexibility in chartbuster songs like ‘Sheela Ki Jawaani’, ‘Chikni Chameli’, ‘Kamli’, and ‘Kala Chashma’. However, Katrina, who surprised everyone with her ease on screen, was not always such a skilled dancer.
Famous choreographer Bosco Martis has recently shared a surprising anecdote related to Katrina’s early career. Bosco revealed that when she was starting out in the industry, Katrina Kaif was bluntly told by a senior choreographer that she was ‘zero at dancing’ and that she should quit dancing.
During a podcast interview, Bosco Martis recalled the early struggles of Katrina Kaif’s dancing journey, saying:
-
Bitter experience of early days: According to Bosco, initially when Katrina was in the rehearsal of a song, a choreographer, seeing her shortcomings, said in a very rude manner, “You are absolutely zero at dancing, it is not your cup of tea and you should quit dancing.”
-
Criticism did not break, but created strength: For any new artiste, such a comment could have completely broken her confidence, but Katrina took it as an open challenge instead of accepting defeat. He kept that bitter thing in his heart and decided to prove himself.
Bosco Martis told that the biggest quality of Katrina is her never getting tired. ‘Work Ethic’ (dedication towards work) Is. Bosco has worked with Katrina in many iconic songs like ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ (Senorita) and ‘Baar Baar Dekho’ (Kaala Chashma):
-
Hours of practice for perfection: Bosco said, “Katrina was not a natural dancer, but she brought herself to that level through her hard work. When other actors would finish rehearsals in 2 hours and go home, Katrina would sweat in the studio for 6 to 8 hours.”
-
Master each beat: She never left a step until it was perfect for the movements of her fingers and eyes. According to the choreographer, it is her discipline and perfection that makes her different and ahead of other actresses.
The result of this stubbornness and dedication of Katrina Kaif was that later on she gave such dance numbers which are not easy for anyone to copy even today:
-
Songs of the movie ‘Dhoom 3’ ‘Kamli’ For this, he had undergone rigorous aerial and acrobatic training for months, seeing which the big names of the industry were stunned.
-
Song from the movie ‘Baar Baar Dekho’ ‘black glasses’ Today it has become a global anthem, whose hook step was choreographed by the Bosco-Caesar duo and Katrina’s abs and dance moves made headlines across the world.
This revelation of Bosco Martis proves that whether the skill is innate or not, but if a person has unwavering dedication, strict discipline and the passion to hone himself, then he can make even his biggest weakness his biggest strength.
