The popular dance reality show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa - Dancing with the Stars on Colors, has got its top 4 finalists namely Drashti Dhami, Shaan, Lauren Gottlieb and Sonali and Sumant after Mukti Mohan's elimination from the show last week.

On the same we got in touch with the graceful Mukti Mohanto know about her journey in Jhalak Dikhla Jaa and she says, "I am definitely going to miss dancing a lot and the Jhalak stage. But well I find myself somehow lucky as I will get a chance to perform in the finale for which the rehearsals have already begun. Unlike the other contestants who got a break in between, I was lucky enough that I got no break. I am still rehearsing constantly and that makes me feel that I am not eliminated (laughs)."

Being a fan of Madhuri Dixit Nene, her best judge on the show was also the same pretty lady, "I am a big fan of Madhuri Dixit and hence she was my favorite judge on the show. I have grown up in front of the TV (smiles), so I used to copy each and every step along with her expressions. She is an Idol for me."

Mukti herself a good dancer says she got to learn a lot from her choreographer Shashank too, "It was superb working with Shashank. I first got Altaf as a choreographer but after 2 weeks he injured himself. I was very much scared at that moment as to what might happen next. But then Shashank came and he taught me to fly. He is very much talented and a calm person, wherein I was totally opposite and the hyper one. Even during the face-off time he used to calm me down and that was one of the plus point too which helped our performance. He encouraged me throughout my journey and I have got to learn a lot from him."

Absence of the contestant Sana Saeed after her elimination from the show, was felt the most by all the contestants says Mukti, "We hardly used to get time to interact with the contestant so there is no one single person who I liked the most or something as when we used to get time we all used to sit together and chat. The absence of Sana Saeed from the show was felt the most. She was like a live wire on the show. She was a happy go lucky girl and hence that energy was missing after she left. In fact, I missed her a lot."

Mukti says as dancer form she loved performing the Mujra and was happy to learn this form too, "I had learnt Bharatnatyam during my school days and besides that all the other dance forms were like new to me and honestly I enjoyed trying the new dance forms. But if I was to choose one dance form which I liked the most then it would be Mujra."

According to Mukti she feels that the very well known singer Shaan should take away the Jhalak Dikhla Jaa trophy home, "Anyone who is left on the show now can win as each and every contestant out there is fantastic. They all deserve to win. But since the concept of Jhalak Dikhla Jaa is all about the non-dancer I would like Shaan to win. He has shown tremendous growth in his dance performances every week."

For Mukti, no face-off during her elimination was a bit disappointment for her, "During my elimination there was no face off and that is one thing that I did not find fair at all. I wish there was a face off which would do justice for the elimination as it was a direct elimination this time."

Well for fans of Mukti there is yet another powerful performance left to see by the energeticMukti Mohan in the finale of Jhalak Dikhla Jaa which is just a few weeks away. We wish Mukti Mohan all the very best for her finale performance and all the very best for her future!

And now that the grand finale is just a few days away we wonder who will win. So what do you all think - who will win the Jhalak Dikha Jaa trophy this year?
