Not Only Bharti but Manish and his flirting both were OTT and unprofessional..

And people like KJO who makes movies in NYC and Madhuri 's family being from CA-CO US should not participate in these type cheap comedy or ranting..
I have noticed the word "Foreigners" being used at each and every major site seeing in India...They have one charge for indians and other for foreigners...The board also says "Foreigners"
When Indians go tour other countries they do not pay diff entrace fees or rates...They are treated same as local when it comes to charges...I know this is off the subject but how tourists - non indians from other countries are treated in India...
Its a shame they put these pro dancers who are million times better than even Indian pros were treated with such disrespect. BTW someone mentioned abt having translator or why did Hosts and Judges not speak in english-hindi both? to keep the decorum during the show?

Problem is that Indians feel it is ok to do that however if same was done by someone USA there will be lot of uproar. Racism goes both ways. Give respect and get respect.

though abt bharti i'll agree...

but i'll disagree abt the charges part... the americans or be any foreign country does the same, take for the biggest example of education sector, the international students are charged way too much higher fees than the local student ...

I have nothing against Bharti or her fans.
I also enjoyed her comedy acts in the beginning, there were moments of her & Manish that were outstanding. I loved them all.
& then she turned her focus a little too much on Remo. & now it has sort of become a thing. At the end of last week & this Sat's act also there is 'indirect' jabs at Remo, which I found to be quite cheap. Yes at first it was funny & adorable. But too much of anything is good for nothing!

Im not Indian, yet even I felt bad/insulted/embarrassed about the way she behaved with the laddoo's. & all the talking in Hindi infront of the foreigners. They may not know what was being said, but it was was insulting, especially with all the laughing going on. It was obvious that those hindi comments were directed at the guests.

I only watched because I was intrigued to see what the international choreographers would bring to the show...only to be shocked at how badly they were treated in the end...what an AWFUL and UNCOURTEOUS view they have been given of India---a country which PRIDES itself on the notion of treating guests like God..."atithi devo bhava" anybody? It was so embarassing as an Indian honestly.
For starters, I get this is an Indian show on a Hindi channel...but talking in Hindi while giving out comments was totally W*F. The choreographers were told they were great and then the judges reverted to Hindi to explain the celeb's mistakes...while the choreographers stared cluelessly only to go get their 24's, 27's and have no idea why Not to mention all those times Bharti/Manish were taking digs in Hindi while the DWTS choreographers just smiled politely. A translator should definitely have been brought on for them.
All those digs Bharti and Manish were taking at the choreographers were in such low taste and totally cringe-worthy. And I can't even talk about that ladoo eating competition and whatever followed...it was so cheap, down-market, and totally classless. Bharti needs lessons in manners ASAP. WHO found that funny honestly? The channel/PH/ scriptwriters????
Only Karan, Gurmeet/Shampa, and Ritwik treated their international choreographers with respect and were welcoming.
I can bet if any of these choreographers were to speak out about how horribly they were treated, there would be such a big hungama about OMG how dare the "firangis" say that. Truth be told, the international choreographers are of a complete different level...forget the celebs, the PROFESSIONALS on JDJ can't match up at all.

I found Bharti's comments abt USA pros being Angrezi very stupid-ignorant more juvenile...These dancers are from Las Vegas, NV. USA and they are Americans origally from diff countries...Bharti get your history facts correct dear..Even using "Firangi" = "Foreigners" is condescending...If they must use anything than say Americans... 😳

None of the indian celebs are .00001 % in comparison to pro dancers from USA...I found many many comments, passes at female dancers cheap and uncalled for..
Bharti using Maa, Baap, Behen words for comedy were very disgraceful...I love her comedy but I feel some of the contestants disappointed me..
I so wish next time americans decline from coming unless some decorum is maintained...My honest and candid views..



Totally agree. Bharti's repeated comments about Angrez ruling us were in poor taste and shows sheer lack of judgement.

There is a time and place for cracking jokes. These were professional dancers from the US and other countries and true artists.

And does Bharti even know who ruled us? it was the Britishers and not all whites in general. Oh Gosh, whatever happened to her thinking.

And justifying everything in the name of comedy is ridiculous.

No wonder, IGNORANCE and ARROGANCE is a horrible combination.

I know Madhuri lived in the US for over a decade. I wonder what she felt. I live in the US and trust me that Americans are perhaps much more sensitive when it comes to respecting cultural sentiments. Of course, we all have some degree of ignorance. But, its best not to pass judgements especially when you don't know much about other cultures.

Soumya the rule of Local VS out of state or Intl is same as far as education sector is concerned...Nothing new or surprising abt it...And I dont want to go off the topic...😳
I was merely speaking of tourist and site seeing in India for Indians VS foreigners...I am American by citizenship and I can get away in paying Indian rates just by my look but other nationality cant as their looks gives it away..

Mohini darling Madhuri may have lived in US for a decade or little more but surely want to know how Dr. Nene a born American professional thought of this episode ...
Due to discrimination and ignorace US has a cultural diversity training classes in most of big corporations...This is what they need especially when they are airing something which is viewed Internationally...
We can dish it out but when it happens to us we cry foul, discrimination or insult and sue other countries due to the loop holes that we find...Again I dont want to go off the topic..
Bharti, Manish and Color-JDJ disappointed me horribly..They need to apologize for the embarassing behavior on Natl tv.

I am referring to TV show. If this type of comments were made then Indian govt would be asking for apology.
As far as charging high fees to international student is concern that is different topic. I am Canadian and my family have paid taxes as a result yes I paid less than international students who really haven't contributed anything to the country. so lets not go there.

Agree.
I didnt understand why they gave low marks in this episode, when the performances were better than previous weeks. At least they were true to the form they were given.
