I thought the opposite of you though..just by watching yesterday episode, I did not think Salman's view is about making the celeb a dancer...for the Argentine Tango - I can't help but compare with Derek and Nicole's performance from DWTS and obviously Dharsti (the celeb) was not as much the focus as the dancer as Nicole (the celeb) was! If Salman's focus was to turn Dhrasti into a dancer, he could have cheographed the Argentine Tango in making her perform more dance steps like the DWTS dance! Anyway, the Argentine Tango was a blink and you miss it..And about the contemporary bit, it was mainly about being lifted around which does not showcase Drashti talent as a dancer either... He could have incorporated dance steps instead of just the liftings bits in my opinion...
As for Tusshar, he actually made Ekta start solo with the odissi bit which I thought would indicate that his view is that it is abt making the celeb a dancer...I think he wants her to build up her confidence to perform on her own and help her get comfortable being on stage by herself...And I feel that the most important bit abt his cheograph is that he made her try out different dance movements...She did knee spin, she did the head movement, etc... She was very much part of trhe dance although she may not have executed them flawlessly...somehow she lacks the power or perphaps passion for dancing...I dunno...
The only reason why Tushar stood out is because he was close to perfection is his execution and he focused on the nuances of the dance in his cheography...
