Remo D’souza to launch his protégées Shakti Mohan and Vartika Jha

Choreographer-turned-filmmaker Remo D’souza, who is currently seen judging the popular Star Plus show Dance+ 4, will soon start work on his next film ABCD 3. As the title suggests itself, the dance drama movie is the next instalment of his highly successful film franchise ABCD (2013). It will be headlined by Varun Dhawan and Katrina Kaif, who are coming together for the very first time.

The latest we hear that the dance flick will also mark the big screen debut of D’souza’s protégées Shakti Mohan and Vartika Jha. Besides them, an international dancer will also join the ensemble cast to begin his or her journey in showbiz.


“Remo has been in talks with popular international dancers to feature opposite Varun. The chosen dancer, who is expected to be finalised soon, will have a significant role in the film,” divulges a source close to the development.

Varun and Katrina will start preparing for ABCD 3 by November-end and the film hits the shooting floor early next year. After canning the first schedule in Punjab, the team will reach London for the next schedule.

“I am launching Shakti and Vartika, whose performances I have loved. I had promised to launch Shakti long ago but it didn’t happen, so this was the perfect opportunity. It’s too early to reveal other details, but we start in Punjab and have a major shoot in London next year. Varun and Katrina are fantastic performers and so are the rest of the team,” Remo said.
