Disney UTV has signed choreographer-turned-director Remo D’Souza for two films deal. One of the films is likely to be the sequel of ABCD - Any Body Can Dance, which is directed by Remo and has released worldwide.

“ABCD showcases his (Remo's) ability to thrill and entertain his audience while at the same time to handle emotion and drama with sensitivity and depth. To shoot a gruelling dance film at this massive scale in 3D is not an easy job, but Remo coupled his talent and ability with patience and perseverance to make a superb film. We're thrilled to be continuing our association with him, and here's to making many more great movies together,” Siddharth Roy Kapur, Managing Director - Studios, Disney UTV said.
