Bosco–Caesar is an Indian choreographer duo who work in Indian films. They are Bosco Martis and Caesar Gonsalves, who have together worked on 200 songs and about 75 films.

They won the 2011 (59th) National Film Award for Best Choreography for the "Señorita" in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, for which they also won the Filmfare Award for Best Choreography.

Early life and education

Bosco Martis (born 23 November 1974) and Caesar Gonsalves (born 23 February 1973) grew up in Mumbai where they both went to St. Josephs in Juhu and played football together. Bosco was inspired by Caesar's dancing performances and practiced on his own to catch up with his future partner's abilities. The two attended Mithibai College and graduated in 1990.

Bosco–Caesar started as backup dancer for choreographers LOLLYPOP and Farah Khan. Thereafter, they started their independent career as choreographers in 1994, when they choreographed a stage show for singers duo Shaan and Sagarika for an awards function. Next they choreographed a music video for singer Raageshwari's number "Oye Shava". During the filming of the video, ad film director Prahlad Kakkar happened to walk in and, in turn, asked them to choreograph a few TV commercials he was shooting with cricketer Sachin Tendulkar. Eventually this led to their feature film debut with Vidhu Vinod Chopra's Mission Kashmir in 2000.

Bosco–Caesar announced that they would be officially parting ways while keeping the brand intact in 2016, with Bosco making his directorial debut and Caesar organizing dance workshops. The duo reunited in 2019 to choreograph a song for Sajid Nadiadwala's Chhichhore.

Television

They appeared as mentors in TV reality series, Fame Gurukul (2005) and Chak Dhoom Dhoom (2010) & Bosco appeared as a judge So You Think You Can Dance India (2017) and Dance India Dance Season 7 (2019).
