First of all, dancing is much less a "gift" and much more something you work on and enjoy and that's what makes you good at it. Secondly AB is a brilliant dancer. She just hasn't done so much of the BIG music-video type of dance songs that peaked in the 2000s.
"Item Songs" where it's a solo heroine performance (Chikni Chameli, Munni Badnaam) and we usually see how good someone can dance is much much less of an occurrence these days anyway, and Allu has not attempted anything as such.
As a dancer myself, one can always recognise another dancer, no matter what form or style, and in my biased/unbiased opinion, AB has absolutely got the "dancing gene".
(disclaimer: not claiming she's anywhere near as good as Madhuri Dixit or Katrina Kaif, or ever will be...)
But she can dance: DHOLIDA!!!!!
And wait a minute... SINCE WHEN WAS ANUSHKA SHARMA known as a "gifted dancer"????? 🤪
The thing that Alia doesn't quite have that Katrina and Deepika had is the fanfare, the beauty, the charm. They are seen as goddesses, they look like goddesses. Alia just looks like a regular office employee.
