Ongole, ANDHRA PRADESH / Hyderabad, TELANGANA :
Haleem Khan stars in a short film based on dance
Actor-Kuchipudi dancer Haleem Khan will appear in a 30-minute short film titled Dressed to dance that is based on Kuchipudi.
The film relates to Haleem Khan’s issues related to dance, including the female impersonation aspect and what he learned over a period of time through art forms and his tips to younger generation dancers.
Directed by Sravan Jadala, the film has been produced by Srini Reddy and Deccan Kuchipudi Art Academy.
“Kuchipudi is not often associated with mainstream films and short films since a very long time.
We (director Sravan Jadala and I) felt there is a need to expose dance related content through short films. Dressed to dance is a small attempt to create content around our culture,” states Haleem Khan.
Praveen Bangari and Sameer Khan have done the cinematography for the same.
