Abhimanyu Mathur (BOMBAY TIMES; November 24, 2016)

Yuvraj Singh and Hazel Keech's upcoming nuptials have made a lot of people curious. Now, we have learnt that Farah Khan is choreographing the couple's sangeet ceremony, which will be held in Delhi next month.

Earlier this month, Yuvraj had made a guest appearance on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, where Farah is one of the judges. During the episode, Yuvi danced to Mahi Ve, a song that she had choreographed in Kal Ho Naa Ho. An impressed Farah had announced, “Main kasam khaati hoon ki Yuvraj ka sangeet main choreograph karungi.“ But while many thought it was a remark made in jest, the director says she was dead serious. Farah says, “I am meeting Yuvraj to discuss the sangeet ceremony's choreography.“

“Yuvraj is an old and dear friend, so it's not a professional engagement for me. He calls me his sister, so it's more like a gift,“ says Farah. Without divulging too many details about what she has planned, she says, “Whatever I plan will be in accordance with the wedding's theme.“

Sources say that the choreography will borrow elements from the lives of the couple, combining Bollywood and cricket.Even though Farah will choreograph the routines, she will not personally supervise the rehearsals. She tells us, “The functions are in Delhi, so it won't be possible for me to be there. But I will send my assistants who will stay with them in Chandigarh and Delhi. Of course, no one is as tough as me, so I'm sure they will go a little easy on the couple. I'm sure Yuvi and Hazel will like that!“

Hazel is a trained dancer who is well-versed in both Indian classical and western contemporary forms. So will Yuvraj be able to match steps with her? Farah says she has no doubts about the cricketer's dancing abilities. “Oh, Yuvi is a wonderful dancer! He is all natural. It will be fun,“ she tells us.

Farah recently also choreographed the sangeet of Sania Mirza's sister Anam, which had Salman Khan dancing to his hit Baby Ko Bass Pasand Hai.
