Remo D’Souza claims that this ABCD is Bollywood's answer to Hollywood's 'Step up' series. After watching the film you will agree with him as the film has more than 15 different dance sequences which are not only entertaining but also energizing . 

The film shows the difference in opinion between two founder members of a dance academy where one thinks that dance should be done to impress people and make money and other thinks that dance is a way to express your inner feelings.

Prabhudeva as Vishnu Sir is the life and soul of the film . He is one of the best dancer of India but in the film he doesn't tries to impress us  with his dancing skills . He  is an inspiring teacher who thinks that D of the word dance stands for discipline . There is so much truth in his words when he tells a student that he can not perform a stunt with another student until he has faith in him .He constantly encourages his students and makes them start believing in themselves .   

The young boys and girls  who play Prabhu Deva’s students are winners of several dance reality shows  and though they won't be winning any awards for their acting skills they did a great work of bringing Remo D'souza 's vision to life .

In a line it's a simple film with some great dance sequences mixed with doses of emotions and drama .  Must watch for dance lovers .Can be seen in theaters .

Rank-  6  (Out of 11 Films I have seen in 2013 )
