--till date I've seen 2 life-risky stunts performed in the show: on March 28th..
1. by Salman (fire stunt)
2. by Mayurish (hanging from hoop stunt)
--few points I'd like to highlight is:
--the Choreographers attitude of their contestants taking this risk---where Remoji seemed to be concerned more with the performance and Terenceji clenched his heart saying he had 50 heart attacks and was downright worried there's no accident even if the performance lacks.🤗
--Although both were stunts, it's a show of entertainment & DANCE...THIS IS A DANCE SHOW--
⭐️👍🏼Mayurish's Stunt Performance was ALL ABOUT DANCE (a proper dance infact which can be used to evaluate a dancer in a Dance Competition)!! --I'm glad that both 27th & 28th the correctly well deserved DANCE was recognized & awarded in the end to Mayurish--Format, details, movements...all excellent & outstanding...
😕 But Salman's performed Stunt (besides the cartwheel flips) had like NO DANCE in it!! IT'S MORE OF BEAUTIFUL ART & CULTURE THAT WAS DISPLAYED ALONG WITH A STUNT(NOT PROPER DANCE FOR A COMPETITION). Is this the same choreographer who stated Mandakani's Peacock Dance as having very little dance in it and advised that Props should enhance dance not block, and so pure DANCE is what we want to see here to pick who's the best. I mean even Mandakani's Peacock Performance had ALOT MORE DANCE IN IT THAN SALMAN"S FIRE STUNT PERFORMANCE. Hats off to Salman for his courage of the stunt. I don't second guess that even Paulson or Mangesh would've hesitated to do it either. As for Salman's choreographer i'd just say that, "One should stay true to their words or criticisms said on any evaluation of a dancer---not just going along with it when it benefits you and using it another time to bash another."
--Salman also states at the end of his "Fire Act" i'd call it---that, "People are going into International Dance Forms, but i wanna show we have alot more in India"--->something along lines which Indirectly points out to "Terence's Versatile" forms which he's shown us. Firstly, Remoji did not try anything new which hasn't been seen. Remoji's a very good choreographer for sure, but his versatility lack in International Dance forms---hence, I was VERY surprised to see one of his students make a remark on it!! Fact is that All of these 3 choreographers have displayed Indian dances well, and Terence has further shown the International forms which deserve praise, not indirect remarks out of hidden Jealousy.
--Respect is not given, it's earned---and for some reason the more respect which i've gained for Terenceji, the more i'm losing for Remoji's by seeing his attitude come across (even now through his students). I still Love All the Choreographers as I think they're all very very good. 👏

As I said before, I love your posts :) I agree with EVERYTHING you said!

I am really glad someone else noticed Salman's little swipe at Terrence. I admire him for doing something so dangerous but it's not fair to criticize a judge and a teacher, even if he isn't your teacher.

Yes Mayuresh was WONDERFUL! One of the most flawless performances I have seen in a long time!
For Salman, I felt his movements in the dance were not as smooth as they could have been. I understand the weight and stress of the entire act, but Salman showed through. Meaning the way he carries himself in his dances showed through. There's certain stiffness to it, a lack of fluidiity.

Terence sir is my favorite judge and coreographer!!!😃

I have to agree it was you, I did not find anything spectacular in the dance. It was an ACT not a dance. DID is supposed to show a contestants dancing prowess, and I don't think the dance showed Salman's dancing capabilities. For me it was a daring act, but I did not see dance. I think the idea is great, but something that would be great in a movie not in a dance competition. And yes I have to add that I loved the act performed by Remo in the movie - that was spectacular. Salman seemed a lot more stuff and that is understood considering you have fire on you and can see with only one eye. I hope that in the coming weeks, Remo keeps away from the acts and comes up with more rare Indian dances like the Kerala martial art one performed by Salman - that was a dance.

I hate that about Remo. He puts other contestants down, but praises only his. Mandakinis prop I thought enhanced the dance... she really came off as a dancing peacock. Her movements even with the prop were very graceful and fine.

I hope some other judge brought this up... but as usual the other judges just said the usual u did very well, its the best thing ive ever seen, nobody could have done it better... they should really use their air time smartly..... especially Geeta

I agree and while Geeta makes that point Terence and Mithun should support the point.....

Very well said Simran777..Agree wth u completely on this..Remo has contradicted himself so many times..He criticises other teams' contestants on some aspect and when it comes to his contestant, he praises it.. n I don't understand why Geeta is not using her brain at all..Even she is not very good when it comes to judging.. Her comments are very vague sometimes..like u r beautiful..u r charming..tum jab stage pe aati ho, main bas tumhe dekhti rahti hoon..
I mean these mentors are here to comment on dance or their personality?? I also felt bad when Geeta passed all negative comments on Mandakini last saturday. In fact I felt she got annoyed on Mandakini as she wanted to go to Terrence's team and to cover up that she was telling again and again that Mandakini is her favourite..and may be because of the negative comments the audience got biased against her and she was eliminated..

i agree mostly with what you said. salman's dance did not really have that much "dance" in it.

but i don't agree with attacking remo once again. i will admit, that i was mentally doing that too up until a certain point. if u see the clip that shows remo's performance, he was dancing with much more fire and was not harmed. so obviously he was not too concerned until the end of salman's health. he gives them these stunts because he had to work off of low paying stunts until he became successful.

oh, and salman's manner. i didn't really find anything wrong with it. i didn't see it as attacking terrence. i think he was referring more to the fact that they're constantly being compared to western people (michael jackson, etc) and there wasn't much reflection of india's pride going on. if u see friday's episode, he said the same thing to the guest that came. he said that he was an indian version of himself not michael jackson. so his dance, was showing india's pride. that is all.

but mayuresh was absoutely excellent and flawless! aaah! and yes, it is good that terrence was concerned about him. i was actually thinking that as i was watching about how he would have practiced that, because obviously he would not get that right the first time. so hats off to mayuresh.

someone said about mandakini that the peacock prop enhanced her dance, but in reality, it did the opposite. i noticed before anyone made any comments that it was weighing her down and she could not perform well in it.
