Choreographer Ganesh Acharya bellows an instruction on the mic while director Sabbir Khan and producer Viki Rajani watch keenly as a dance sequence plays out in front of them.&nbsp;
At Imperial Palace in a corner of Goregaon&rsquo;s Aarey Colony, the 'Munna Michael' unit is shooting for a dance song called Swag. It features an unusual pair attempting to match steps &mdash; actors Tiger Shroff and Nawazuddin Siddiqui. The latter, who we&rsquo;ve rarely seen dance, is a stellar performer, but dance is something he has rarely attempted on screen. The two are prepping for, no less, a dance-off.
In a large hall is an ornate, rotating mirror, which shows off Tiger&rsquo;s buttery moonwalking and Nawaz&rsquo;s tripping. &ldquo;We have been shooting for the last two days and Nawaz&rsquo;s sincerity has blown us away. Of course, we can&rsquo;t help but have our share of laughs when he gets a step wrong,&rdquo; says Sabbir.
A &ldquo;no cameras, please&rdquo; policy on set means there will be no evidence of the drama.
Nawaz calls for a break, and walks towards us. We notice his chiselled face. He says it&rsquo;s the result of hours of running. &ldquo;I am having so much fun shooting for this [film]. I play a hotel owner who befriends Tiger&rsquo;s character, who is a Michael Jackson devotee. For this song, I had to prep for a week. But by the end of the film, I am supposed to look like a professional dancer. There&rsquo;s a big dance sequence for which I have to be perfect, just like Tiger. We will shoot for it in March.&rdquo;
Four months is what Nawaz has on his hands, and he will continue to train even while working on his next project, Manto [a biopic on Pakistani literary giant Saadat Hasan Manto directed by Nandita Das], which kicks off in January.
The natural dancer, Tiger, is helping the arthouse hero get the steps right. &ldquo;Just watching him dance is big enough a lesson,&rdquo; Nawaz graciously admits.
An embarrassed Tiger says, &ldquo;The whole idea was to feed off each other&rsquo;s styles. Honestly, I was bummed after the failure of A Flying Jatt. At such a time, being around an actor like Nawaz is invigorating. I can&rsquo;t wait to film the final dance sequence with him. He is hard working and I know he will give me a tough fight with his energy.&rdquo;
