Tiger Shroff to train with Michael Jackson�۪s choreographer

Tiger Shroff 2 - Baaghi 340x

Tiger Shroff has announced he will be working closely with the crew behind, ‘This Is It’ (2009), the behind-the-scenes film taken from Michael Jackson’s final concert.

Shroff has always been big on dance, and the actor is all set to play a Jackson fan in his next project, ‘Munna Michael’. In order to get his moves right, the actor is moving to Los Angeles to train with the King of Pop�۪s choreographers. Shroff was cited in The Asian Age saying, ���You can call it a smart move. Yes, I�۪m going to be trained by choreographers, who worked with Michael Jackson in the This Is It documentary. I�۪ll be training in some of MJ�۪s dance forms which I�۪m not familiar with.�۝

The 111-minute documentary, ‘This Is It’, was pieced together from behind-the-scenes footage of the King of Pop rehearsing, jamming and preparing for the world concert that never happened. The legendary singer-songwriter died in 2009. This author had tickets to his show and was left very much heartbroken.

Now, Shroff will be revisiting the golden moments captured in the documentary, alongside the crew that worked closely with Jackson.

The young actor has famously been a die-hard Jackson fan. Last year, on the singer�۪s birthday, Shroff danced in a music video, dedicating his act to Jackson. ���I consider him to be the God of dancing. In the video I expressed my debt to MJ by mixing his track Billy Jean with my own track, Whistle Baja. It was my way of showing the love and respect I have for MJ�۪s art. Now, it�۪s time for me to take my love and respect for the God of dancing even further,�۝ he said, before spinning around and ending on his tip toes (one assumes).
