AIDS Midget Dance

[Aman Shah]

Hey,

        It's due mid-december and only about a month more for AIDS to come. It's about time that we start doing the choreography. For that, the choreographers need to have a clear vision - a basic plot - in their mind so that you can start with the choreos pretty soon.

So, prepare the first draft of the plot (the screenplay in case of non-thematic performance) of your performance by 20th DECEMBER. Remember this is the FIRST draft. You may modify it later as per our discussions.

Please sincerely follow the deadline. 

Here is a sample (you need not make such fine details - just plot/screenplay and sequences are enough for now):

Freshers' Performance Plot

Father: Ketan Phagat (KP)

Son 1: Hani Singh (HS)

Son 2: Money Ratnam (MR)

Girl 1: Karina Kaif (KK)

Girl 2: Banni Liyo (BL)
Lady 1: Ananya
Lady 2: Dimple

Plot: Ketan’s intro about his Tharkiyap in his college days and his resemblance with Chetan Bhagat. He could not marry his girlfriend (Ananya) but had two sons (twins) with her. Sons’ introduction. (Hani and Money) Hani likes a girl (Karina) but she doesn’t like him. Whereas Money has a girlfriend Banni. One day Ketan brings a lady (Dimple) to their house and introduces to his sons as his fiancé. After Dimple’s departure, Hani feels bad about not having a girlfriend and asks his father and brother for fundae. Hani follows those holy sayings while flirting and finally he proposes Karina and she accepts it. Parallely Money too proposes Banni for marriage and she too accepts. Two of them happily goes to their home along with their respective girlfriends. Dimple (after marrying Ketan), in their house reveals the truth about Banni, that she is her daughter. Meanwhile their father comes and reveals that Karina is Ananya’s daughter.

Probable Performance:
 

Video: Inka naam hai “Ketan Phagat”. Sirf Naam nahi inka kaam bhi Chetan Bhagat se milta hai. Haa, yeh bhi apna college days mei KHOOB machaaya. Dho bachche (2 children: twins) bhi ho gaye. Lekin yeh apni jaan se shaadi toh nahi kar paaya tha.  

        Yeh hai inke dho bachche. Ek hai money, (dikhta hai baap jaisa aur saala iska harkathe bhi baap ki tarah, ek number ka Gunda).

Sequence: Probably Mukkala Mukkabula (for introduction)(<1:15)

Video: Doosra hai Hani (dikhta hai maa jaisa aur hai bhi shareef. Partying senti janta. Kuch develop karke video badhaa saktha hai up to 15 sec). 

Sequence: Fully Faltu (<1:00)

Video: Ye hai Karina kaif. (Iske peecha padtha hai apna Hani. Banda shareef hai, toh bandi yuhi nahi patjaayeegi. Peecha kartha hai lekin Karina ko pasand nahi hai. So, bandi ke peeche padthe hue ek choreo and bandi intro)

Sequence: (Probably) Touch Me, Race (choreo from road to bolly flex mei 2:33 se http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlZl_kXnLjQ) & (probably) tu mera agal bagal (Rahul Chowdary choreography) (<1:15)

Video: Ye hai Banni Liyo. Ye hai apna Money ki girlfriend. (Banni ke uupar thoda story (fatte) develop karke, video 15 sec tak kar sakthe hai)
 
Sequence: (agar hoga toh ek aur, bandi ka intro song) and a love song, Probably Ishq waala love: Very light choreo (<1:15)

Video: Ketan ek bandi (apna gf) ko leke aata hai ghar aur introduce kartha hai dono bachche ko. (Boltha hai ki iske saath shaadi karne waala hoon mai and all). Bandi nikal jaathi hai and Hani rotha hai ki gf nahi hai. (boltha hai ki peecha pad raha hoon lekin nahi pati… Money bhi thode din mei apni gf ko propose karne waala hai, aap bhi shaadi karne waale hai, mere paas atleast gf bhi nahi hai…) Ketan and Money giving fundae to Hani. (Ki aaj kal bandi shareef log ko nahi pategi, thoda naatak karna padtha hai and all such fundae).(dekh beta bahut kuch karna padtha hai. Starting mei despo nahi hona chaahiye. Thoda patience chaahiye…). Last mei (Papa bolenge ki “aur ye bhi hai beta ki agar bandi patgayi aur tere pyaar mei poora doob gayi na, tab toh sirf naughty cheez hi chaltha hai”) (Dono khushi se dreams mei chale jaayenge)
(Achaanak se voiceover: is poore scenario ko, is poore story ko kaunse Bollywood ke formula lagaathe hai. Bachche ke voice: Sal, Sal nahi patha sal. Sir voice: Ok mai bathaatha hoon)
 
Sequence: (ABCD padhli bahut. Ache cheez Karli bahut. Ab karoonga gandi baat) Gandi Baat (<1:30)

Video: (Money, Banni ko shaadi ke liye propose kartha hai and she accepts it)

Sequence : Money and Banni ka Duet (Complete Duet) (<1:00)

Video: (Hani texting karte hue dikhaayenge aur dikhaayenge ki bandi pat gayi. He too proposes Karina for marriage and she accepts it. Ye baat Hani, Money ko boltha hai and Money bhi apni shaadi ke bhare mei Hani ko bolta hai.)

Sequence: Top Lesipoddi (Telugu Song, Choreo shuru kiye the, ho jaayega) (<1:30)

Video: Dono apne apne bandi ko leke baap ke paas jaathe hai. Baap apni bandi (shaadi ho gaya) ke saath ghar mei honge. (Reveal karenge ki Banni Dimple ki beti hai aur Karina hai Ananya ki beti hai.)

Sequence: Bhudda hoga tera baap. (Last mei aisa kuch voiceover aayega ki “Ye Bhudda nahi, Tharki hai”… and Lights off. poster on screens “Bhudda hoga tera baap” likha hua, aayega and Bhudda ghoom ke “Tharki” ho jaayega.) Lights on and bow. THE END 

P.S: The first duet between Money and Banni is temporary and can be removed. Whereas the second one is important to have a time gap (for me) between two energy sequences. Names of Girls and Lady 2 are temporary. Some videos are not important (no dram part only narration) can be replaced with other things like only voice over and a photo slide show. Both the sequences for the introduction of girl characters are placed assuming a good lead dancer. I propose Sunmukh Sangode for father's role.

Hello Everyone,

 

The plot depends on where this performance is kept i.e before comedy or separately and what is the time it is devoted. I personally feel that this being a new style introduced to our audience this performance can bag the show for approx 4-5 mins. I have heard a lot from my friends that it becomes very monotonous for them during the show. So, this can serve as a good change.

 

Now, coming to the performance part . If this is kept separately we can have 5 midgets=10 people (more than that would seem clumsy) . Requirements:

1. Live feed

2. 3-4 tables

3. Black Cloth

4. Movable Wooden frames

5. Small Clothes, shoes

6. Other props that depend on songs

 

A probable intro to the performance maybe -

We all have dreams as we grow up. And now as we are grown ups,we want to again live our childhood memories and be a child again. So, what would happen if that dream comes true. What would we be like if we get to be children again? lets find out.. :P

 

Probable Performance( approx 3min 40 sec)

Starting - Pause and random expressions. Starting tune as in video below. around - 5 secs

 

Bhangra- Choreo will be funny and time taken around 20 sec

Dialogue that follows - "Dhai kilo ka haath jb utha ......nhi uth jata hai" 

 

people just on this dialogue`s end rise in ballet style

 

Ballet Dancing- Around 25 secs...very fun elements.

Dialogue- "Basanti in kutto.... " - " nhi mai toh naachungi"

 

Item song- Sheela ki jawani - 25 secs approx

 

Dialogue- Atta maji satakli...

 

I like to move it move it.. - approx 20 secs

 

Dialogue : not yet finalized.

 

Hiphop- A very common and good track . A little bit good dancing and spoof of Michael Jackson moves :P and some stunts spoof.  approx - 30 secs

 

I`m sexy and i know it- another gud track for fun. approx - 20 secs

 

Gangam Style - approx 20 secs and end .

 

This performance as proposed will have a track of 3min 40 sec including dialogues and entry. Some dialogues are yet to be given a thought, but , I think these are better thought in a group while having fun.

 

I`ll keep the choreos of some of them ready. I`ll need 10 people. Number of boys and girls are adjustable but obviously in pairs.

 

Regards,

 

Shrey
