So my brief was to make a fusion of all the styles from these 3 countries. The choreography has 3 parts. Commercial hip-hop depicting Canada, I’ve used a lot of Indian traditional styles to make the Indian sequence & Moroccan style. Specially in the hookstep I’ve used garba because the sound made me move like that.” In last few years the duo has given hits like ‘Zaalim’, ‘Pachtaoge’, ‘Chhod Denge’, ‘Dirty Little Secret’, the ‘FIFA World Cup anthem’, ‘Pepeta’.

I also want to mention here the respect Nora and I have towards our dancers. We both care for the dancing community so everytime we do a song we both know that we want people to start dancing. Nora has influenced a lot of dancers and through her I get to share my artistic skills. she always does 100 percent justice to the movements. She makes the moves special.
