Director- choreographer Prabhu Deva celebrates his birthday today. Prabhu Deva is one of the most respected and loved choreographers in our country. Shilpa Shetty, in an exclusive chat with Bollywood Bubble, opened up on how it was challenging to please Prabhu Deva. The duo worked together in the movie Mr. Romeo. Opening up on it, Shilpa Shetty told us, “The one choreographer I feel who is very difficult to please in terms of dancing is Prabhu Deva. To dance with him is so stressful. I remember I did a movie with him and he and I became very good friends after the movie.”
Shilpa Shetty told us how she would find it stressful to dance with Prabhu Deva as he is a blessed dancer. “Because during the movie, he would choreograph and then he would not be happy with it. I would rehearse entirely and he would change it completely. But Prabhu was like that and I think I have never danced like the way he made me dance in that movie. I think one of the biggest compliments I have received is when Prabhu told me that his friend told him it is the first time I watched Shilpa dance when you were in the frame. That was me was a huge compliment especially when it came from him because I worked very hard,” Shilpa added.
She also mentioned that she feels “they are blessed dancers. I sometimes feel that thank god, I did not come to the industry now with the kind of dance forms we have now. Now the influx of heroines are those who are trained in dance forms and there is so much to compete with.”
