MUMBAI: Remo D’Souza’s ready to get back to direction after health crisis
MUMBAI: The director-choreographer says
that he has been taking it rather slow after he suffered a heart attack last
year; he also opens up about his new dance academy
On December 11, 2020, Remo
D’Souza suffered a heart attack and ever since, he tells us that he has been
taking it “really slow”. However, he is all set to get back to the grind and
don the hat of a director yet again. “Much to my surprise, my doctor has told
me that I need to do cardio and other activities to help keep my heart beat
normal and healthy. I am ready to invest in a film. I am going to start a film
in a week’s time. My team will take over and I need to supervise the whole
thing. I am already working on another film. Filmmaking is my first love and
that will always be my priority,” he says.
The
director-choreographer witnessed a mixed response for his last two directorial
outings, Race 3 (2018) and Time To Dance. However, that has not deterred his
spirit from exploring his passion for filmmaking. D’Souza elaborates, “Every
film makes one better. You keep learning from every film. Yes, I was slightly
disappointed. But I guess that happens to every filmmaker when they don’t get
the response that they had desired. Race 3 is my film and I am okay with it. I
am still very proud of it. My confidence hasn’t shaken at all.”
D’Souza,
who is known for his choreography in The Disco Song (Student Of The Year; 2012)
and Badtameez Dil (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani; 2013), has recently launched a
dance academy. Apart from his love for dance, it has also stemmed from his
health crisis.
“It’s
been many years that I wanted to open a dance academy. I thought this is the
right time to do it. We are going to mix dance and fitness together. It is open
to dance enthusiasts all across the country via virtual sessions too,” he ends.
