Choreographer Bosco Martis to make directorial debut with India’s first dance-horror flick

Bosco Martis of choreographer duo Bosco–Caesar is set to turn director. Speculations about him going behind the camera have been around for a long time. However, now Bosco has himself confirmed his directorial debut.

Bosco Martis is gearing up to helm a dance-horror flick, which will be the first Indian film in the said genre.


“As a choreographer, I wanted to explore my skills in the dancing world without trying to attempt a film on the lines of Step Up. So I came up with the concept of a dance-based horror-comedy. It sets the platform to create something magical,” said Bosco.

The choreographer-turned-filmmaker added that the attempt is to create something unique for the audience. “The only thing anybody can recollect is Michael Jackson’s music video, Thriller. We are still working on the film and will have something interesting to offer as the attempt is to create a unique experience for the audience,” he added.

Set to begin production in the second half of the year, the yet-to-be-titled film is being bankrolled by Zee Studios.
