RIP Jay Borade. Loved his choreography in Sooraj ji's films - made the songs lively. Especially how lovely the Hum Saath Saath Hain title track was arranged.

I saw an interview a while back of Salman's where he spoke fondly of Jay Borade teaching him some weird moves but he said that the audience came to like it. It's good he remembers the people that assisted him back then.
