MUMBAI: Latino pop singer Shakira is interested in dancing for a Bollywood film that her Indian choreographer-filmmaker friend will begin shooting this year.
Shakira was so impressed while working with top Bollywood choreographer Farah Khan during rehearsals for last week's MTV awards that she expressed a desire to dance in the planned film.
“Right now, it is just that we have agreed to work with each other,” Khan was quoted as saying.
The choreographer is to direct Om Shanti Om later this year.
Bollywood's Hindi movies are known for their elaborate song-and-dance numbers.
Khan said Shakira would visit India for a concert in March next year and the movie dance sequence could be shot at that time.
The sultry singer and her troupe performed a hip-shaking Bollywood-inspired rendition of Hips Don't Lie at the MTV ceremony in New York last Friday.
“She is definitely clued in to Bollywood dance and wants me to incorporate it in her next music video which she wants me to direct for her,” Khan said.
