DOTW: Dangerous Stunts? *

1. Do you think DID should stop with the stunts because of the dangers? Why or Why not?

First of all, not all of them are stunts. Our janta need to learn about the different forms of dances that are there in other places outside India, and this show is a good opportunity for that kind of exposure - thanks to Terence. This will encourage boys to pursue dance as many would otherwise think dance is all a girly thing and it involves classical dances and looking like a female in the costume. However, I would suggest that any act with fire should be avoided by all means!

Again, they are not stunts, at least not all of them are. There are several forms of dances from all over the world, and the list will be endless... How will our people get exposure to all those - none of them would be going to search in youtube to see all kinds of dances out there, but when they come up in a show like DID, they will watch and learn and also expand their vision and mind, and will also provide a wider horizon for the younger generation who are interested in dance.

3. As the show goes on, the contestents need to try new things to prove themselves worthy of staying. Should the Choreographers start following precaution of dangers that some kid out there might be trying to copy the steps?

Do you know of the poor boy who died trying to emulate the stunts on DID?

No matter how much lecturing MD does, or how much Terence tries to deny that the stunts are all very safe or how much fire and nails Remo and Geeta plays with... the reality is that the uneducated will try to copy these dangerous stunts.

And somewhere, DID is responsible for sending the right message to society.

ZTV has to be more responsible in its programming, because there aren't Only intelligent and well-meaning people out there - but also the uneducated or ill-informed people who will die in trying to copy these stunts.
