Today's episode of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 3 (Sony TV, Friday and Saturday at 9pm) follows a circus theme. A source, present at the shooting of the episode, lets us in on what to expect this evening.
The source says, "It was a good opportunity for the five contestants and their choreographers to prove their mettle and that's exactly what happened."
And as usual, consistent Hard Kaur impressed judges Saroj Khan, Vaibhavi Merchant and Juhi Chawla. "She even got a standing ovation from them," says the source, adding, "She performed to a track from the film Welcome and did a wonderful job. Kaur scored full marks as well as gained Rs. 100 from Saroj."
As for the rest of the contestants, the source says, "They were good but as the contest is now in its final stages, every act is being scrutinised."
And crowd favourite Parul Chauhan bared the brunt of the judges' meticulous examination and faced harsh criticism for her performance. "Even judges' favourite Baichung could not impress. So it's going to be interesting to see who has to perform in the face off round on Saturday," adds the source.
In addition to the competition getting tougher, it also gets more dramatic with video footage of Gauhar claiming that Hard Kaur can't dance being aired. The source says, "In return, Kaur said that Gauhar's comments don't affect her. This was the first time that the bitterness between the two contestants emerged out in the open. Previously, all we heard were rumours of ego clashes between them."
From next week onwards, with only four contestants on the show, Jhalak's semifinals will begin. Every pair will then have to perform on two songs each episode.
