Over the span of 11 years, the dancing icon Saroj Khan choreographed song and dance routines for Sridevi in 25 films - the verified listicle below. 

A fruitful, golden, symbiotic relationship between choreographer and dancer/actress, Sridevi categorically credited Saroj Khan for all her magical dances in several interviews. Saroj Khan in turn credited Sridevi as a fine artiste and student who keenly observed, learned and practiced to perfection, be it for dances on screen or stage.
