Boogie Woogie India

My side where I live it’s pretty cold today and also there is some mischief in air and that puts me to my mischievous self. I actually wanted to write an article about Bhangra and gaining some knowledge but since the atmosphere is such so I am going to skip the knowledge part and take a break from serious writing. Let’s do some mischief today – what do you all say? Well, I will just take your silence as “Yes”

Since the time this website started, the one common message or email that we came across from many was dance aspirants inquiring or searching for Boogie Woogie Auditions. “I want to participate” are the most common words that I heard in my life. Well its natural as Boogie Woogie is the best dance show ever and so it is natural for one to dream to participate on its highly respectable platform. Nothing wrong in it! And so I have been truthfully and honestly replying to everyone’s message with some tips or for what they need to do. But today a thought came across to my mind what if we don’t do what we are supposed to and do something that what we are not suppose to then what?? What other ways can be there to reach Boogie Woogie sets or the Boogie Woogie guys? Hmm.. interesting haa?? Let’s see what wildest ideas we can come across. If you get any wild ideas, do send them across. But here is a warning – this article is only for fun. DO NOT TAKE IT SERIOUSLY - I don’t want to get killed please - at least not before few of my own dreams are met of course

Ahem Ahem!!

Well let’s assume a participant has prepared himself or herself for a 2 minute dance audition and has 2-3 songs ready. He or She has followed all the rules and regulations and are abiding them. But the problem the person facing is that no one picks the phones for auditions and time is running out. A video CD has also been sent long time ago and again no response. Well it’s bound to happen as there is 1 billion plus population in India and not counting the other Indians who reside abroad and who want to participate too so there surely will be floods of video CD’s or inquiries for auditions. So what can one do to bypass this long queue?

By the way for this article let me disclose my name – I am Albert Pinto and I live in Mumbai. Any questions or concerns, please feel free to comment. Ok back to crazy tips!

• Everyone has Videocon Boogie Woogie physical address – put a camp right in front of their building and start living there. “ek ghar banaoga tere ghar ke saamne”
• See what time Ravi and Naved arrives to the studios – just make an observation first.
• Get some good loud speakers and keep your audio ready to be played for the next time they arrive.
• Next day, as soon as the judges arrive, jump right in front of their vehicle, play your music and start dancing. You only will be wasting 2 of their minutes so it shouldn’t be a big deal. Give your audition to the best. Mesmerize them with your performance.
• Find out the results right then and there and see if you get a chance to perform in the show.
• If results are positive well and good or else prepare for plan ‘B’
• Plan ‘B’ – Next day perform another number and if still a ‘No’ then hand over to them a list of things that you can do – for example: Wash their dishes, sweep the floor, do the laundry, cook food for them especially Rajma Chawal.
• If still a ‘No’ then keep showing up at the studio gate till the answer turns out to be ‘Yes’.
• If cops are called, don’t worry – take it positively.
• If you land up in jail, make sure to carry an Ipod with you so that you can practice your dance in jail. One mustn’t stop practicing no matter what.
• If the policemen beats you up, take it positively again. This way you will learn new steps of how to dance with a soar backside. For all you may know, you might come out a master and teach the new skills learned and earn a fortune.
• Once you are out of Jail, you must visit studios to repeat steps from one to end – Don’t give up!
• If it’s life imprisonment – again take it positively. Think of how many more skills you can learn by just being in jail – there is always a sunny side to everything.
• If God forbid, it turns out to be the last day of life – think of it as all worth it!! A life well lived!

Hope my mind blowing ideas will help you reach your dream auditions.

Adios Amigos!! Take good care of yourself and stay cheerful!
