Janhvi Kapoor should've given me credit for her viral moves in Devara; we don't get enough credit for choreographing songs of Race: Bosco Martis
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.

Why Bosco Martis Was Disappointed When Janhvi Kapoor Did Not Acknowledge Him For Chuttamalle From Devara: Part 1
New Delhi: Janhvi Kapoor played the character of Thangam in Devara: Part 1. The film had Jr NTR and Saif Ali Khan in key roles. Janhvi Kapoor's short role in the film left a lasting impression, especially with the song Chuttamalle with Jr NTR. However, recently choreographer Bosco Martis expressed his disappointment on how choreographers are not given due credit for their work in films. The case in this point is Janhvi Kapoor, who Bosco felt should have acknowledged his work in Chuttamalle. He told BBC Asian Network, "I wish Janhvi would have spoken about it in the promotions, but that's fine, it's okay. If they don't realise it, then they don't realise it. It's a switch. I don't know, I think the correction has to be made, but there's a scientific way of doing this instead of forcing yourself and making the call and asking someone, 'Why haven't you taken my name?' or 'Why are you not talking about me?'" Elaborating his concern on how choreographers and their hard work go unnoticed, Bosco added, "The amount of hard work that has gone in and the amount of planning and expertise it took to make the song look the way it does, when the song is released and becomes a superhit, the choreographer is forgotten." He continued, "A choreographer is not celebrated when the song is showcased for the first time. A star is celebrated because they are the face of the song, and the choreographer is given the backseat and sometimes becomes invisible. I have been vocal about this because I think it's time we speak about it. It's a little disheartening sometimes to not even see your name in the list of credits." However, Bosco did appreciate Vicky Kaushal who was very vocal about Bosco's contributions for his hit song Tauba Tauba from Bad Newz. Bosco also mentioned Hrithik Roshan who had given him due credit for a step that Bosco had given for Mission Kashmir.

In a recent interview with BBC Asian Network, Bosco spoke about choreographers not getting their due credit and expressed disappointment over Janhvi Kapoor not acknowledging him for the hit song Chuttamalle. (Also Read: Chuttamalle from Devara Part 1: Jr NTR, Janhvi Kapoor remind fans of NTR, Sridevi in romantic song) Bosco discussed how choreographers often go unrecognised and said, "The amount of hard work that has gone in and the amount of planning and expertise it took to make the song look the way it does—when the song is released and becomes a superhit, the choreographer is forgotten. A choreographer is not celebrated when the song is showcased for the first time. A star is celebrated because they are the face of the song, and the choreographer is given the backseat and sometimes becomes invisible. I have been vocal about this because I think it's time we speak about it. It's a little disheartening sometimes to not even see your name in the list of credits." Bosco went on to praise Vicky Kaushal for acknowledging him during the promotions of Tauba Tauba and celebrating him, letting the world know about his contribution. He also appreciated Hrithik Roshan for crediting him and talking about a step Bosco gave him in Mission Kashmir. However, when asked about not receiving credit for the Devara Part 1 song Chuttamalle, which went viral due to Janhvi's moves, Bosco said, "I wish Janhvi would have spoken about it in the promotions, but that's fine, it's okay. If they don't realise it, then they don't realise it. It's a switch. I don't know, I think the correction has to be made, but there's a scientific way of doing this instead of forcing yourself and making the call and asking someone, 'Why haven't you taken my name?' or 'Why are you not talking about me?'" Anirudh Ravichander composed the song, which is titled Chuttamalle in Telugu, Dheere Dheere in Hindi, Paththavaikkum in Tamil, Swaathimutthe Sikkangaithe in Kannada, and Kanninathan Kamanottam in Malayalam. Bosco Martis choreographed the number, with vocals by Shilpa Rao. The song from Devara Part 1 features Janhvi Kapoor and Jr NTR romancing on a beach. The song became a chartbuster, with many fans being reminded of 'senior NTR and Sridevi's romance'.

Bosco Upset Over Not Being 'Credited' For Chuttamalle Choreography: ‘Wish Janhvi Kapoor Spoke'
Last Updated: Bosco expressed his disappointment over not being acknowledged for choreographing Chuttamalle from Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor film Devara. Renowned choreographer Bosco Martis, known for viral Bollywood tracks like Jhoome Jo Pathaan, Kala Chashma and Tauba Tauba, is speaking out about the lack of credit given to choreographers despite their pivotal role in shaping a song's popularity. In a candid interview with BBC Asian Network, Bosco expressed his disappointment over not being acknowledged for choreographing Chuttamalle from Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor film Devara. The track has gained significant traction online, but Bosco revealed he hasn't been credited for it during the promotional run. 'I wish Janhvi would have spoken about it in her promotions, but fine, it's okay," Bosco said with a smile. He pointed out the contrast between how Vicky Kaushal handled a similar situation, sharing that the Tauba Tauba actor gracefully gave him credit in interviews and public appearances. Bosco further explained that the issue goes beyond just one song. 'If they don't realise it, I think, then they don't realise it. So, you do your work, and maybe it's a switch I don't know," he said while adding that many in the industry overlook the contribution of choreographers even when discussing iconic dance moves. The choreographer said that the industry needs to find a more structured and respectful approach to acknowledging behind-the-scenes talent. 'The correction has to be made. I think there's a scientific way of doing this instead of forcing yourself and making that call and talking to somebody, saying, 'You know, why have you not taken my name on the radio station or somebody talks about the dance move, why are you not talking about me?'" He suggested that a protocol should be put in place so that audiences automatically learn who choreographed a song, rather than relying on actors or directors to name-drop. 'It needs to be scientifically done, I guess. There has to be a protocol that needs to be set where people get to know about who is the choreographer instead of somebody having to endorse it," Bosco said. First Published:
