The Dharmesh Yelande & Salman Yusuff Khan partnership

From ABCD Any Body Can Dance (2013) to Street Dancer 3D (2020). It started with ABCD Any Body Can Dance (2013).

The shape of the work

The 2010s belonged to ABCD 2; the 2020s to Street Dancer 3D. Dharmesh Yelande acted in every film; Salman Yusuff Khan acted in all of them.

Partnership facts

  • Remo D'Souza cast them together in ABCD because he needed dancers who could also act — but the real spark was that both had trained under the same choreographer, so they already moved like they'd been dancing together for years.
  • In ABCD 2, Dharmesh set the pace for the group numbers while Salman handled the solo power moves — they never stepped on each other's beats. Remo said they 'completed each other's counts without looking.'
  • Their face-off in Street Dancer 3D's 'Mile Sur' sequence directly inspired the dance battle format that became a staple on India's reality show 'Dance Plus' — Remo used their rivalry as the template for the show's audition rounds.
  • On the sets of ABCD, they had a running bet: whoever messed up a take first had to buy chai for the entire crew. Dharmesh lost the first day, Salman lost the last — they still joke about it over WhatsApp.
  • Salman once said in an interview: 'Dharmesh is the only guy who can make me laugh mid-dance. We'd be doing a serious routine and he'd throw a goofy face — I'd break, but Remo never cut because the energy was real.'
