tommorow if a student did a debate or a gave a speech about the wonders of his mom who passed away, will anyone question it " did he give the speech to gain brownie points?".
if so, what has the world come to, and what have we become?



So true....no one's asking to make this an "all praise" session hailing Sushant all the time....I can see some valid points in here about his dancing technique mentioned by some ppl....fair enough....but to actually accuse him of exploiting the loss of his mother for an emotional angle?? When I read stuff like this, THAT is when I start to wonder what society is really coming to....I see vested interests at work then where ppl will pull out any kind of blind vicious "discussion point" just to paint Sushant in the worst light possible without any basis.....and I can clearly see signs of how these "balanced" viewpoints don't seem to apply to certain ppl's own favorites when it comes to judging THEIR dancing.....

But I wonder why I'm bothering saying this much also.....as is the usual norm in this forum.....as a Sushant/Ankita fan, I will be ridiculed and my opinion will have no worth since apparently I'm a "blind fangirl"😆

This forum needs some troll control.

I too lost my mother 4 years ago , Sushant's performance bought tears in my eyes ...
It is a loss that can be felt by those who have gone through it ...would never wish it on my worst enemy ..
That boy was not exploiting his grief at all , he was giving tribute to his mother and that is a very very natural thing ..When someone as close as your mother leaves you , you always wan tto hold on to her in whatever way you can and that is what he was doing .I find it very nice the way he always gives tribute to his mother in his own way ..

aww..I am so sorry to hear abt yr mom.Being a mom myself,I can completely understand yr pain.
I feel sorry for Sushant too but what I am trying to say is that..dance was missing in this act..it was emotional.Remo always says,he needs to see pure dance but this particular one was full of emotion and less of dance..so he shd have got less than 30 just for that reason.

@Chitsji:

I think everyone has different opinions regarding the performance and that is okay.

I think what Tanya di and many others want to stress on is that it doesn't seem right to paint Sushant in an accusatory light saying he did it for sympathy votes.

Where my personal opinion is concerned- at this point in the competition Sushant doesn't really need a sympathy show to survive. He is quite safe and gets good points every week. Plus I wouldn't like to be judgemental by saying that he did it for votes and marks- the guy has lost his mother and I feel we must give some consideration to that. Benefit of doubt in a sensitive matter is the least one can ask for.

i get the same message all the time. and again, i concur with your points. i agree with many here. yes sushant has done comtempary before. yes, he can do better, but to say he exploited his deepest personal loss is a JOKE and SLAP in the face of humanity.

many of us, didnt know that sushant lost his mom till the tribute in ZND. and there he was crying and didnt do the performance. anyways. my wasted breathe.

another point i want to bring out. i really like ragini, but its obvious that her dances need polish and that she forgets steps or cant keep up with her partner. also, she excels in the masala acts and thus far has gotten perfect for these acts.
keepng that in point, why dont people think those are the reasons she was evicted or that she too wasnt a perfect dancer? people who point fingers at sushant saying his dances need to be more wow or that ankita didnt deserve to stay, compleltely forget these points, infact i remember many a times where ragini was slower paced than neerav.
her classical was full of mistakes.
but if i mention these, i am a crazy sushita fan, and ofcourse they dont deserve to stay. sorry, that doesnt make sense.

i think you are being little rude to him.... i don't find a reason why he needs to do all those things.. he is an excellent dancer.. best in this season and judges are already impressed with him he does not have to do emotional atyachaar on judges to impress them all he needs to do is dance well which he does...

i m not a sushant fan i m saying this as a neutral viewer



well i can't think of any other reason for him to choose such a theme despite hurting him so much! i don't know if it was his idea or not. i can't imagine someone doing it with his/her mom either. it's his mom after all. but it felt like someone had this idea. whether they did or not is not the point. i just felt it was used and so i didn't like it and felt sorta repulsed. again, just my opinion. i believed i had a right to express that and so i did.

Anu, WORDDDDD!
I see people who point put mistake and talk about dancing technicality hardly in forum talking about performance instead I see them coming only when some thing bad is said about Sushant/Ankita. If any one people come to say this not is correct about Sushant/Ankita then I see we getting labelled as obsessed fans.

@Bold: This forum surely need,but I see no mod in forum as people will be busy pleasing some fans who will using report button all the time. 🥱

of course you have every right to express your opinion... may be Shampa wanted to do an act on mother son relationship so he did it....quite possible...actually none of us know why he choose that theme so why not give him benefit of doubt...

We, sushant's fans, never came to know that he had lost his mother until he did ZNKD. He never spoke of it in his interviews- he kept this aspect to himself. There too he did not say anything when everyone was on the stage with their mothers and he was sitting all alone. The channel kept exploiting it by showing his sad face again and again, and asked him to say something in the end.

At that time he had said something like 'I wanted to make some sort of tribute for my Mom too like everyone here made for their Moms, but she isn't here," something like that.

And then, we got that tribute in JDJ, showcasing even if she wasn't with him, she was there with him.

So now do you think that there could have been a second reason?

See, please don't think I'm trying to bash you. You have the right to express your opinion and I know that at the end of the day I cannot change it. I'm just trying to offer another perspective in this matter, cos I feel there are some things you might not be knowing about sushant, since you are not his fan.

Personally I feel the basic benefit of doubt should be given in a sensitive situation like this one.

I don't think saying that someone did not deserve a 30 necessarily means that you are anti-someone. It simply means that someone feels they did not deserve a 30. Its English, not spy crypt.

Being a fan should not mean that a star is infallible and they should always be number one. You can disagree with the star sometimes. Even a Madonna or JT fan can admit that 4 minutes was a crap song. Even BEP fans can admit that the Superbowl halftime show was horrifying.

If someone genuinely feels that the performance is good and fully deserving of the highest accolades then thats perfectly fine. Simply explain why and disagree. If someone genuinely feels that the performance was not as good and should have got a lesser score then thats fine too, simply explain why and agree.

This discussion should be about dance, choreography, performance, technique, execution and yes the expression/emotion of the dance. This discussion should not be about a star, love/hate relationship with the star, personal life and all that jazz being peppered in. Liking/disliking someone should not blind ones judgment on their capacities.

Anyway, I personally don't follow shows so dont have a preferred celeb. I've grown to like and support Sushant and Yana. Coming to the performance I have seen Sushant do much better. I think he can do better. In fact the dance did not compare to some of his other thirties. This late in the season he should be doing better than his previous thirties, not less than. A thirty for less than is too lenient. A slightly lesser score would be fairer and competitive.

That being said, I wanted to add a random side note. Expressing love, relationships, loss, death, darkness etc does not always have to be heartbreaking, tearful, or dramatic. The beauty of the arts is there are many different aesthetic ways to express the same emotions or sometimes even reshape the emotions itself.

Here is what I feel is another fine example expressing the loss of a mother. It does not make you cry, but makes you think. It puts death and loss in a whole new dark-philosophy expression.

[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LRb4C-3tJQ[/YOUTUBE]

This is also a great example of groW*H and maturity as artistes. When some of the kiddos here today were running around in diapers or sucking on bottles - I and some others here were probably teenagers going crazy "OMG AQUA!!! ZOMFG Barbie Girl is awesome!!! Such a sexy man voice". They had great bubblegum pop - all dance fluff - Barbie Girl, Doctor Jones, My Oh My. I loved them then, had all their songs on audio cassettes. But I would have been bleh if they came back with the same old bouncy pop. We have Ke$ha and a dozen truckloads of glitter and Jack for that nowadays.

They still have electronic rhythms, they still have beats, but they grew up as a band, matured and made their music much better than it was - lyrically, visually, aesthetically - all ways.

Being a fan is never settling, never wanting the same thing, but expecting artistes to grow - to show what they can do next. Not rely on the same dramatic effects - but do things different. But then....I'm rambling off topic. Its I guess not just being a fan....but growing up.

so ur saying it was a "coincidence" that he had to do this act? and he just happened to get a mother-son relationship? now i can't believe that. someone deliberately assigned this act to sushant. whether it was shampa, sony, or sushant himself, i do not know. but it surely wasn't a coincidence or fate. and i am willing to give him the benefit of doubt, cuz as i said, it was his mother. but saying that shampa just happened to have wanted to do a mother-son act is not correct.
