It seems we are entering a dance season. While Hrithik Roshan gets into his dancing shoes for ‘Kites’, on the other hand, there is newbie Gayatri Patel, a US-born-and-bred girl who makes her debut in ‘Let’s Dance’ playing a dance teacher.
Releasing on June 19, ‘Let’s Dance’ is directed by popular film editor Aarif Sheikh. Aarif, who makes his directorial debut with this one, has been a National Award-winner for ‘Samay – When Time Strikes’. He has also been the man behind the edits of acclaimed movies like ‘Makdee’, ‘Maqbool’, ‘Taxi No. 9211’, ‘Parzania’ and ‘The Blue Umbrella’.
Terming Gayatri a ‘dancing tornado’, Aarif is all praise for the girl. “She’s sparkling, ” he says and stresses that when it comes to dance, she can beat all the current Bollywood heroines hands down.
Having music by Vipin Mishra and another National Award winner Tarali Sharma, the movie’s songs have been choreographed by none other than Longinus Fernandes (of “Jai Ho”-‘Slumdog Millionaire’ and “Pappu Can’t Dance Saala”-‘Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na’ fame), Rajiv Goswami (of ‘Veer-Zaara’ and ‘Dhoom’ fame), Pappu-Malu (of ‘Saawariya’ fame) and the evergreen Saroj Khan.
“I've done jazz, hip-hop, filmy, Kathak and Natwari dancing in the film and I’m pretty excited about it all, ” informs Gayatri. “I’m discussing other movies now and I’m here to stay, ” she quips with a smile.
Now let’s see if the twists and turns and whirls get Gayatri near her goals. We wish her the best.
