I have to say that I feel let down. The concept is a sure copy and a few steps as well. Just to give it some semblance of originality, Terrence has introduced different steps.I feel cheated when I thought that it was his original choreography, yesterday

Hi,

Thanks for replying...

I still think it is a copy...though the concept of raat is new but the trio tango is definately copied.

The steps are copied and the girl flirting with both is also the same...

I have watched this movie and specifially this dance many times, and from the very begining of the perfomance i could say its copied, do watch the video and the perfomance again, its very much the same

I think you didnt watch it carefully! Neither the concept nor the beginning to end nor the steps are the same!! I hope you know about dance when you are saying it is the same!! Terence's concept is kind of horror based, whereas this video has two pairs competing first, and then a guy watching them make an entry to dance with the leading pair!! How is the concept being the same here?? Could you please explain?? Even all the lifts and moves done by Terence are not in this video, and I didnt see any similarity. If this is a copy, then all the dances on DID are copies, including all of 15th Friday's performances - end of story!

Well no one actually copies the whole perfomance a-z ofcourse, they r clever enough for that.

The concept always has to be a story from start to end... in the movie its the the guys wanting to be her partners and then the compitition and in the perfomance it's two guy lost in the dark. Most of the steps are the same, the three tango, the girl kicking the guys, them crawling after her, her flirting with both etc....now no one is that fool to copy a perfomace from start to end as the they have to take into account the contestants ability and copyrights too....

The concept is the same and even few steps look similar but I don't think I would call it a COPY...

I missed first of the show, so I thought you were comparing this dance with Shakti dance. But I came to know you are comparing Kunwar-Kruti-Pervez performance. I agree it was completely copied and unfortunaltey no credit was given. Lekin we should also understand, Terrence is also human, everybody copy. Over all Terrence's was the bad copy.

After viewing the clip from Take the lead, I don't think it is a copy. A dance is copied when you lift the choreography, the props, the movements, the ambiance, everything. Terence at the most is just inspired by the three person tango and chose to do his own version of the three person tango.

One cannot be too stringent in calling a copy in dancing. Dance styles have very limited moves, postures and steps. It is how the choreographer assembles the whole package

- Terence's choreography was completely different.
- The performance style chosen by Terence was more wild and passionate
- He incorporated complex advanced lifts not in the original
- The stage movement is completely different, as in Terence does not just stay on the flat stage, he utilizes steps, bar props everything to create a while stage dance movement

So in every relevant aspect Terence has shown originality. It would have been a copy if Terence had barely changed anything and done everything like Take the Lead. At this rate every Salsa is a copy of the other salsa.

The theme of Terence's dance as well as the flow of steps, along with the stage coverage, lifts and jumps, etc have no similarity with this video what so ever!! I still dont see any similarity, even in the concept or steps. If that's the case, Remo's three angel dance steps were copied from the rock/pop dancers in Hollywood, especially of Madonna, Beyonce and the like. Then his three boys' one was copied from many African American hiphop performers.

The real copy, I would say, are the two dance numbers done by Remo in season one - Prince-Sunita's robot dance, and Salman-Khushboo's handicap dance - from the concept to the costume to the entry/start to the flow of step by step!!

Well if this is copy then we shud change the definition of Copy...Yes the idea of three people doing tango was there and since it is tango, certain steps will look the same...but I don't see the dance as a rip off of the video provided...and I agree with RTH and Akku, rip off is when the concept, the clothes, the positioning, the entire feel of the performance is the same...best example was Remo's dance last season with Salman and Khushboo, the one legged...thats called a rip off...only diff was the girl was handicapped instead of the boy, yeah we wouldn't have noticed the change...
