It's controversial/ Hrithik Roshan calls choreographer Bosco Martis 'OG Sher' amid Fighter credit controversy
Hrithik Roshan appears to cryptically express support for Fighter choreographer Bosco Martis post the latter calling out filmmakers for not giving due credit.
Very recently, industry veteran Bosco Martis - a famed choreographer himself, took to his social media handles to put across an elaborate statement, demanding that choreographers be given the credit and recognition for the songs they have choreographed. Hrithik Roshan appears to have shown his support for Martis, albeit in a cryptic manner.
Hrithik Roshan shows support for Bosco Martis?
Hrithik Roshan took to his Instagram stories to share a reel of Bosco Martis and a few of his dancers, dancing to Roshan's film, Fighter's first single - Sher Khul Gaye. For the unversed, the peppy track has been choreographed by Bosco Martis. Hrithik's caption under the reel read, "The OG Shers! Take a bow you guys"
While this can be seen as Hrithik openly supporting Bosco Martis in his recently shared stance, what makes the alleged support cryptic, is the actor flooding his Instagram stories with more glimpses of the Sher Khul Gaye choreography being replicated by other choreographers, big and small. Hrithik has also not directly made a statement in support of Martis, yet.
Bosco Martis stands up for all choreographers
Bosco Martis took to his Instagram stories to share an elaborate note on the lack of recognition plaguing the choreographer community, irrespective of how the concerned songs are received by the audience. Bosco's note details that despite being 22 years old in the industry, it has still been a struggle to have his name on any promotional material for the movies and songs concerned - an issue plaguing choreographers big and small.
He further elaborated how it is extremely "heartbreaking" to see almost everybody involved in the songs - right from the music director to the lyricist being credited, but not the choreographer.
