The one element differentiating Bollywood dance, aka the Hindi film industry, from every other movie industry globally is that dance and songs are integrated into every mainstream movie. Even within the pantheon of Indian cinema, the way Bollywood does song and dance is unbeatable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every growing-up kid has one or the other moment when they’ve had the fantasy of being in a Bollywood dance<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>sequence, having hundreds of dancers behind them, dancing with a male or female lead behind the beautiful snow cover alps or the valleys of Kashmir. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve all had these dreams, but just because it isn’t real doesn’t mean that we should not indulge in them, and by taking ballet classes geebung<\/a> <\/strong>dance, we can make it a reality for us, even for a fleeting moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are all the aspects you need to know before dancing, like your favorite actor or actress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving with grace and energy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bollywood performances tend to be highly graceful, with one dance step being done by hundreds of people, giving it a sense of synchronicity that feels exceptionally pleasurable to the eyes on the big screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s a sense of buddying energy that gives it a high octane aspect that makes you want to jump out of your seat and dance with everyone else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An excellent example of mixing graceful choreography with energy is done in the song Dilli-wali girlfriend in Yeh Jawani hai Diwani movie. Every performer’s movement is highly fluid but at a faster, energetic tempo that also brings a sense of energy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another song that mixes grace and energy is the song Nashe si chadh gayi, where the dance steps are graceful but far more energetic than the song, which is more of a slow club jazz tempo (with some parts being more high tempo). It brings an odd sense of pleasurable sensation that one often associated with Bollywood music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Body Movements <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Bollywood dancing, body movement is the key to it being enjoyable; the trick most choreographers use is to bring a sense of repetition to the dance steps to make it stick in your mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Much more than any other form of western style of dancing that has much more variability and less focus on repetition. Let’s look at the famous Singing in the Rain dance done by the brilliant Gene Kelly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In that case, there’s a sense of forwarding momentum that keeps building and building until it ends on a high note, or the Lovely night dance sequence from La La Land is one take with minimal repetition of the movements.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Classical Dance Styles <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bollywood <\/strong>dance has always been seeing as contemporary Indian\/ Western fusion dance. Moreover, the dancers have not been shy about delving. Into the world of Indian classical dance forms in historical epic movies. Some of the songs and movies that have delved into different forms are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Mar dala song from the movie Devdas has the epitome of beauty Madhuri Dixit performing Kathak.  <\/li>
  • In the song, Pinga from Bajirao Mastani, Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone perform a Maharashtrian classical dance from Lavani.<\/li>
  • Deepika performed Kathak in the song Mohe Rang Do Laal from Bajirao Mastani. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Costume<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Bollywood is probably the most costume-obsessed film industry. If any, with a typical mainstream Bollywood movie’s costume budget reaching an astronomical cost of 2-5 crore rupees. The look and costume design are interlinking with the song that the leads will be dancing in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If the song is more tapori in nature. You will see the leads wear clothes found in the streets of Bombay and lots of net-based clothing. If it is a historical epic about kings and queens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The clothing and jewelry are handcrafts using the exact style and weaving they used in the 15th -16th-century era kingdoms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Bollywood reflects Indian culture, and people love dressing upon any occasion possible, whether it’s Diwali, Dushera, or it’s a wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Conclusion<\/strong>:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Bollywood dance<\/strong> is nothing but a phenomenal fusion of vibrancy, rhythm, and energy blending into one another. Like India, Bollywood dance<\/strong> is a melting pot of global culture, and there is not a single genre of dance. That exists out there that hasn’t been played around and fused into our Indian colors. You can take Bollywood dance <\/strong>classes that will teach you. All the famous moves of your favorite Indian actress and actor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Bollywood dance<\/strong> is all about escapism from the reality we’re living in, and there’s nothing more beautiful or pure. About the desire to transform yourself into a Bollywood character dancing on the snow-glazed mountains of the Himalayas. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
