Lauren and Punit - Overhyped much? - Page 4

Well. Like I said... I think, from viewers' perspective. Think he is barely mentioned in JDJ's script. 😆 Sure, he is a good dancer. Sure, his choreographing's good. But as far as I'm concerned ... there's no 'wow' factor in his choreographing. I did not find anything unique ... yet. I think, what he has shown so far ... According to me it's so 'Seen that, done with'.

I made a similar post last time Lauren and Punit performed and not to be repetitive but it gets slightly frustrating when you see obvious favoritism going on.

Lauren is an amazing dancer, no doubt there!

But the fact here is she is already a PROFESSIONAL. If your going to bring a professional dancer on a show for non-dancers - than you cannot compare her at the same standard as everyone else. She needs to be judged per her caliber. While Lauren and Punit's performances have been good - they rely mostly on the emotion and a few whimsical tricks like Lauren's ballet spins or the horror or emotional theme. I am not a dancer so don't have much knowledge but feels like they could do much better. In fact I feel Shaan and Drashti are doing same level of performance as Lauren at this point...

What is REALLY aggravating is how Remo is so obviously showing his favoritism for Lauren. Every episode he stands up and gives a 'This is it'. If your giving a 'this is it' every week - then there's something really wrong with the picture. Either she's too good for the show - or else your overhyping her. And I'm going to go with the second option on this one.

Yeah it didn't make sense to me, I think you should have used a different word than over-hyped to explain what you meant since over-hyped basically means to promote someone excessively.

I did not know who Tusshar was, in fact he is one of those "background" people that go unnoticed mostly so I speak purely as a neutral viewer. I think currently he has got to be the best choreographer, him and Marishca. Not all dancers can be choreographers and Tusshar definitely knows how to choreograph. He is brilliant. Judging purely on choreography, talent and technique, he definitely has the 'wow' factor. Other than him and Marishca, in past seasons, Deepak and Shampa are amazing choreographers as well.

I know what over-hyped means, bud. Do not need to tell me. I see viewers promote him excessively ... that's why I used it.

And I have already mentioned what wow factor is in my opinion. I don't see what he has done brilliant so far. If judging on choreography, then I have already mentioned haven't seen anything unique so far. Judging on talent ... If all those choreographers weren't talented, they wouldn't have been there in the first place. He might have the wow factor, but hasn't proved himself yet.

@Hashii Was I only talking about IF? 😛

DD and Salman are not over hyped.

DD has a lot of fans - Which is quiet normal, plus you cannot say her performances have been below average. She is doing great as a contestant. Salman has done brilliant for the past two seasons like we are all aware of and gained many admirers --- Yes, he is keeping it low this season, but then again I already dedicated a thread regarding that issue. I don't have to explain again.
