correction!

Karan did not damage his hand, his elbow was shattered in accident. and he can do lifts just not all lifts 😆

sorry! i just dont like it when people say that he cant do lifts!


I think he cannot do full lifts and has to take care. This he mentioned at the auditions.
Given time I think his condition should improve further.

Dancers are mere instruments, who give out the wonderful music (dance), but the ones playing these insturments are choreographers. i didn't say this. some famous choreograoher said this. forgot his name!😆

so yea. I think the choreo is highly important. i feel that if u have a good choreo, then half of the battle is already won. a good choreo can makes any average dancer look exceptional and can make any exceptional dancer look average! a good choreographer places a choreography according to the weakness and the strength of the dancer. hence, the dancer will appear to do so amazingly well. in contrast, a bad choreography (which can highlight weaknesses) will undermine the dancing efforts of the dancer.

Dance skills are necessary to execute a good choreography. and a good choreography is necessary to have a good performance. so i say both of the factors affect the performance. but choreography as more of a direct effect!

Yes that is very well said. If Choreographers are the Masters and dancers instruments it means they can bring out the best in a dancer. These days when there are many good dancers every edge counts, including song selections too.
