Is Dance Missing In Today's Bollywood?

I honestly feel like it is. Now, I am not necessarily talking about Item Numbers, but I feel like Mainstream actors, especially the females are lagging behind. I know most of them cant dance, but if you tried hard enough you can improve (ex: Katrina)
For the girls, there was what...2 successful main dance songs? Chittiyan Kalliyan and Sun Saathiya? Really cant remember anything else.

I know its a different day and age but I miss the days of Madhuri-Sri-Karishma- Ash where in almost every movie there would be a proper dance song. Nowadays I feel like actors are too lazy and want to "get by"

Even the Dance Performances at Awards Shows have deteriorated and become boring and stale.

Like this one??😆





On topic.
There have been some dance songs...like Kamli,nagada sang,pinga,deewani mastani

We just need more graceful dancers..
I so wish we had Madhuri dancing to mohe rang do lal from BM or a tango on Janam janma

Ok BW need better choreographers too😆

And bring traditional dance forms like chhau,bharatnatyam...kalaripayuttu(though martial arts)
These are my fav😳

Now dance than song Indian directors start copying HW and Korean movies which are music less no dance no song may be gradually Indian film will become like that though music is the soul of Indian film but I am worried about it.
