I feel popular vote will overwhelm genuine talent once again in JDJ and Karan will win. It's quite sad that public vote more for their favorite actor rather then dancer. Hard Kaur and Gauhar Khan should win but they wont. The return of de latter in wild card was a positive sign but again its seems Ram did not want to come back.
Actually if you see in terms of TRP pure number parul should be number one, but possibly youngster's r bigger jdj fan hence karan has an edge.
Though i must agree Face Off is definitely a tool which judges can employ to save talented people.
