  PICS:Best Of Drashti Dhami On Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa

  India knew Drashti Dhami as a household name for her incredible acting skills as Madhubala but her challenge was to prove herself as a dancer without any prior professional training. With her choreo-partner Salman's supportive mentoring, Drashti transformed into one of the most graceful dancers on the Jhalak stage. Drashti has portrayed some breath taking performances from bollywood to hip hop, from semi-classical to international dance forms like Rumba and Paso Doble. A well deserving winner of the trophy, Drashti juggled between shooting for a daily soap and rehearsing for Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. During the course of the show, Drashti did go through some lows but she bounced back as a fighter thanks to the immense love and support she received from the viewers.

  Drashti Dhami walked away with her head held high as the winner of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. When asked about the victory, she said, "I find it difficult to believe that I've actually won considering there were such great dancers with me in the competition. But after receiving appreciation from the judges, I was motivated to improve my performances with every passing week. Yes, I did believe my body was giving up in between as it's not easy to shuffle between two shows but the judges encouraging words were like a morale booster that helped me give my best always. Salman, my choreographer,was very understanding and pushed me to the level that has made me a dancer.Lastly, I will always be grateful to my fans who've always recognized my hard work, and never stopped showing their love through their votes."

  A hearty congratulations to the two on behalf of Dailybhaskar.com.
