New Delhi. It has been 4 years since famous choreographer Saroj Khan left the world, but whenever there is talk about dance, she is definitely mentioned. In his career spanning over 40 years, he made a contribution to Indian cinema that can never be forgotten. Given his reputation and his contribution to Bollywood, many people from the industry often shared stories about his ‘harsh’ or strict behavior. Recently, choreographer Terence Lewis talked about her and told why she was of a harsh nature.
Saroj Khan was the most famous choreographer of Bollywood. From Madhuri Dixit, Kareena Kapoor to Shahrukh Khan, he has made many stars dance to his tunes. But it is said that Saroj Khan was very serious about her work. She used to groom the actress equally. Speaking on Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa’s podcast ‘Bharti TV Clips’, Terence said, ‘People who used to ask, ‘Why did she abuse or behave so rudely’, they should know that in this industry. It is very difficult for women to work.
‘The industry kills the woman inside them’
Terence further said that this industry is still male dominated. It is very difficult for women to work in this industry. They have to become rough and strong, the cruelty of the industry kills the woman inside them. They have to become like men to survive in this industry.
‘Women choreographers use more abuses because…’
He said, ‘I don’t know if you have noticed or not, but male choreographers are calmer than female choreographers. Women choreographers abuse more than men… and I will tell you why, because they have to prove again and again that ‘Hey, don’t take me lightly, otherwise I will teach you a lesson.’ Terence said, ‘We men don’t have to do all this. But as a woman, you have to do that in this male-dominated industry. This is sad. People killed the women inside them. That is why they behave, walk and talk like men.
Choreographed more than 2000 songs
Let us tell you that Saroj Khan has choreographed more than 2000 songs in Bollywood, most of which were hits. Like Hawa-Hawai, one-two-three and what is behind the blouse. He was born on 22 November 1948 in a Hindu family in Bombay State. Her real name was Nirmala Nagpal. Her parents changed her name from Nirmala to Saroj before she started working in the film industry, because they did not want their conservative family to know that their daughter worked in films.
Became a mother at the age of 14
At the age of 13, Saroj Khan married dance guru B Sohanlal, who was 43 years old at that time. At the age of 14 she gave birth to her first child. After the birth of her first child, Saroj came to know that Sohanlal was already married and had four children. Later, she settled down and married a businessman, Sardar Roshan Khan. He also converted to Islam for marriage.
