Bhaiiiiii... Norbu ko kisne kya pila diyaaaaaaaaa 🤣 oh em geeeeeee 👏

And Radha kya nache today 👏 she was on fire 👏

How decades have gone by, but there no match for "Aa dekhe zara kisme kitna hein dum" even if u bring a remix version, the original is the ultimate best for dance battles and the irony, its picturized on a guy who can't dance 🤣

Okay so looks like I'm the only one here who didn't enjoy Anu-Hansvi's performance as much as the rest 🥶 I mean individually the performance was great, Hansvi was absolutely amazing today, she totally killed it with her grace, moves and expressions but I felt it was just set pieces without any proper thread that could tie the whole piece together. I saw the performance in chunks, I wanted the storytelling to be more clearer and cleaner. I found it very messy at points. Also felt like Arshiya wasn't in her element today, she was losing balance at a lot of places and in some formations. Like in Vamana they couldn't achieve Arshiya putting the feet properly on Hansvi's head or even after the Krishna-Arjun scene they attempted a formation but couldn't achieve because in both the cases they quickly cut to Sonali's reactions for a long time. But Hansvi completely stole the show today. Man WHAT A SOLO. I mean look at how graceful she can be if she slows down while dancing. The whole section from her solo to the Mahabharat chariot scene was my favorite bit from the act. They completely deserved 30 for the effort behind the act and to visualize this in just a week but still I think a little more finesse in the transitions, landing and balance would've made it perfect for me.

My favorite performance today was Flow and Norbu. WHAT AN ACT MAN! They were just too too good! 😍 That SOTY Mashup is one of my favorite BW mashups and I'm so happy they didn't experiment with it and danced without remixing it further. Flow and Norbu were on fire today. Such tremendous improvement by Norbu with every performance. 👏

Also I am noticing this for this and last week, don't you guys think Tushar is suddenly falling behind while dancing? Like even today I was feeling he was losing his energy in the middle of the act and was trying to catch up with Flow and Norbu. Which is surprising given Tushar is known to be such a fast dancer with non stop beats without any breather. I hope he is okay!

Neerja-Samarpan and Param were also so good today. That tham gaya part has my heart. I love how Neerja mixed in so easily with the style of Param and Samarpan. I sometimes feel Bhavana wasted her on SD4 with stunts when she could've done such amazing contemporary pieces. A very good and heart touching act.

Soumit was as usual in his element and Raktim did a nice job with a fun comic act and Vipul was good too. Except for them tossing around Soumit, I enjoyed their performance. I especially loved the subtle gags they put in throughout the performance, especially when Soumit fakes forgetting the steps on 'Zara sa agar steps galat ho jaaye' line 😆 I also loved how the choreography involved the whole set starting from the contestants in the sitting area to the judges. Fun desi take on the ghostbusters lol.

I didn't enjoy Aryan and Anjali's performance as much as the judges did. First of all I honestly hate when people use a song like Deewane Mastani for fast dancing. It's really not that song that can be speedened easily. It has a particular rhythm pattern, it has particular instrumentation that can only go with a certain few dance forms which are on the softer side. Adding fast beats to it and turning it into a open style number just didn't work for me. I mean just compare the parts where they were dancing on the normal music vs on the fast beats added to the music, they were so much more clearer in the segments where they were dancing on the original music. Also like Saumya and Boogie yesterday, the performance didn't have any context, any meaning attached to it, especially when it's being complemented by some heavy duty lyrics about Mastani's madness in love state of mind. 😆

I always kept wondering from while film is that Bandaa Re song is, right from the time Sonali used it in their draupadi act on SD4. I kept thinking to check and kept forgetting. I always thought it would be from some devotional film or something and today I find out the song is from Raaz 2 out of all films 🤪😆

My dislike for Rupesh came from when he was strobing and throbbing on this song 🤢 might have looked new innovation to ppl but for me he was the destroyer 🤪 he is redeeming himself with Aniket though 🤣

U were looking at the wrong Mastani 🤪

Robz it's three years now on IF as far as we have met, learn how to post GIFS directly here 😡😡I hate opening links 🤣

My 2 bits from today's episode:

Hansvi should do everything else but Kathak 🤪

Gogoi was 💥💥💥 and Norbu yaar, jo bhi Tushar is feeding him, should keep feeding him, even if kala jadoo is involved, keep it going 😎

Anshika danced like the queen she is but didn't like the act.

And that group contemporary, how freaking insane that part was when Pari Pankaj were dancing and rest of the gang was frozen in a pose for almost a minute 👏 and that chain they formed with their legs and hands
