Popular choreographer duo Bosco-Caeser began their career back in 2000 with the songs of Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s action thriller Mission Kashmir, starring Hrithik Roshan and Preity Zinta. Bosco Martis, one half of the duo, feels they haven’t gotten enough credit for some of the popular songs since then. However, he expressed gratitude to actors who make it a point to celebrate them.
“Just give credit to the choreographer. Even during promotions, if an actor talks about us. Vicky Kaushal was so graceful. He celebrated me. That’s how the world got to know I’m the choreographer,” said Bosco, referring to Vicky’s shoutout to Bosco-Caesar for the choreography of his popular dance number “Tauba Tauba” from Anand Tiwari’s romantic comedy Bad Newz last year.
In the interview with BBC Asian Network, Bosco continued, “When they talk about it, there’s a voice. The choreographers feel happy. Like when Hrithik Roshan spoke about one step we tried in Mission Kashmir in a lot of interviews, I feel happy I’m a part of his journey. We’ve done it together. How do you celebrate somebody who’s given it their all.”
When asked about Janhvi Kapoor’s viral moves in Chuttamalle from Koratala Siva’s Telugu action epic Devara: Part 1 last year, Bosco Martis said, “I wish Janhvi had spoken about it (Bosco-Caesar’s involvement) in the promotions, but it’s fine.” He hailed social media as a “big game-changer” for choreographers as they can share the behind-the-scenes videos of their songs.
“If they don’t realise it, then they don’t realise it. You just do your work. The correction has to be made, but there’s a scientific way of doing it instead of forcing your way in, making that call and asking somebody why they haven’t taken your name. There’s a protocol that needs to be set. People should get to know who’s the choreographer, instead of having someone endorse it,” added Bosco.
Bosco Martis also mentioned the songs he feels they don’t get enough credit for. One of them was “Gallan Goodiyan” from Zoya Akhtar’s 2015 hit family drama Dil Dhadakne Do. “The only dancing actors were Farhan Akhtar, Priyanka Chopra, and Ranveer Singh, and that’s about it. The seasoned actor would be Anil Kapoor. Even Vikrant Massey is in there. Rest of the actors were all raw. To choreograph them with their positions, in a very small area, and in one shot, we had to make sure it was entertaining and that people wanted to be a part of it,” recalled Bosco.

He also listed the songs from Abbas-Mustan’s 2008 hit action thriller Race — the title track “Race Saanson Ki”, “Khwab Dekhe” and “Zara Zara Touch Me” — along with “Uncha Lamba Kad” from Anees Bazmee’s 2007 comedy Welcome and “I Hate You (Like I Love You)” from Abhinay Deo’s 2011 black comedy Delhi Belly, as some of the tracks they didn’t get enough credit for choreographing.
