Choreographer-turned-filmmaker Remo D'Souza has roped in a Hollywood actress for his 3D dance film titled "ABCD". However, he refuses to reveal her name.

"The actress is from Hollywood, we have kept her identity under wraps, " Remo told reporters. The choreographer was here with his "Dance India Dance" (DID) co-judges Terence Lewis and Geeta Kapoor to announce the top 18 contestants who will take part in the third season of the show and its collaboration with Reebok for DID apparels.

"I needed a dancer who is extraordinary. When people see her, they wouldn't believe a girl can dance so well, " he added.

Asked why didn't he take anyone from India, he said: "In India, I could not find anyone who could match up to that level."

While Prabhudeva plays the lead in the film, Remo has signed on previous "Dance India Dance" contestants Salman Khan, Dharmesh, Prince, Mayuresh and Vrushali in prominent roles.
