Background dancers! - Page 2

the quality of background dancers have really taken a nose dive. and i blame these producers/directors/choreogrpahers running after western dancers.

The background dancers may have improved now. But the ones in the 90s and pre-90s sucked!

i find no reason why the presence of background dancers should make u embarrassed ...

OK, guys. What PuffinHyperpercity said wasn't "completely" wrong. You've got to admit that the whole dance-in-sync with the the background dancers is a completely odd concept. I do agree that Bollywood is an epitome of masala and what not, but you guys also need to understand that they [the ugly ones, that is] distract the audience from the main dancer and create a sense of turn off.

Now, on the other hand, yes, I do agree that today's b/g dancers have improved. For example, in the following videos, certain b/g dancers have actually performed better than the lead dancer. Please take a look. It's left to viewer discretion.

Pathetic b/g dancers. The directors could have used a replacement.

The female dancers in Chammak Challo genuinely grossed me out. 🤢 Not due to their dancing, but their clothing. If you can indeed call it clothing.

Having said that, most backing dancers are there to distract us from the lead actor or actress's awful coordination.

Yeah! A lot of background dancers are really good!

In this video, the girl to Kareena's left is so pretty! And she's a great dancer too!

And who can forget Shaimak's dancers? I love his dancers! Remember Shahid in Kahin Aag Lage? He's obviously very talented.

What I hate is when they have random white dancers that are purely there because they're white girls and they make them wear skimpy clothes. That's gross. But apart from that, I think background dancers are rather talented people who haven't gotten a chance because they're not star kids.

background dancers add grandeur and volume to the song...sometimes, the dance looks soo much better when therz a million people doing it in a synchronised fashion...
