August 25, 2015 by BollywoodPresents Team

Aamir Khan Learns Tap Dancing for Dhoom 3 Most Bollywood celebrities know how to dance (at least some what), but at times, even they need to enhance their dancing skills, considering that Music & Dance are integral to Indian films. So even Bollywood actors / actresses have to enroll for dance courses to learn the nuances of the art, in order to do justice to their roles. Here are the Bollywood celebrities who took dance classes to prepare for their roles.

Richa Chadda Learns Cha Cha Cha

Richa Chada loves to dance and her next movie ‘Cabaret’ is all about dance. So, the talented actress took the opportunity to join a short 3 day cha-cha-cha dance course in LA, when she was vacationing there.

‘Cha Cha Cha’ is a ballroom dance with small steps and swaying hip movements, performed to a Latin American rhythm.

The actress, whose movies are usually critically acclaimed, enjoys learning something new. Richa Chada found the dance class online and is happy to be a part of it. Hope her classes help her with some hip twisting moves for the movie. There are speculations that her next movie, Cabaret is based on famous yesteryear actor and dancer Helen’s life. However, these rumors have not been confirmed yet.

When Aamir Khan Mastered Tap Dancing

Aamir Khan Learns Tap Dancing for Dhoom 3
Not among the ones to take his audience and fans for granted, Aamir Khan learnt to tap dance for his movie ‘Dhoom 3’, to make the scenes look natural. He may not be known for his dancing skills, but looking at the video, the ‘3 Idiots’ star seems to have delivered a perfect performance.

What is Tap Dance?
Its a form of dance where you hit the floor using your tap shoes and create a sound similar to a percussive instrument. For that reason, many also consider it to be a form of music.

Two major variations on tap dance exist:

  1. Broadway tap: This form focuses more on the dance and is widely performed as a part of musical theater
  2. Rhythm (Jazz) tap: It focuses more on musicality, and dancers are usually jazz lovers and consider themselves to be a part of the Jazz tradition.
