At the age of 19, Remo D’Souza opened up to his family that he wanted to follow his passion for dancing and wanted to try his hands in Bollywood.

Remo D’Souza faced multiple rejections and slipped into depression but, refused to give up.
He further went on and spoke about his first break in the industry, he said he went for an audition to choreographer Ahmed Khan and before he gave his audition, he requested the choreographer to select him on the basis of his dance performance and not his looks. He recalled those days and said that dark dancers like him were not allowed to face the camera but because of his talent, he performed in the second row, behind actor Salman Khan.
