personally I liked it and the steps are completely different from anything she has ever performed (including performances before jhalak) so I think she it was a 30 well deserved.

Completely agree with you cl0wn! But when did the judges ever fairly mark them and give them the marks they actually deserve?

Today's performance had some very good sides: costume, expression, the atmosphere they created...but DANCE...no the dance was not worth the 30 marks.

Watch Isha and Cornell's afro dance from Season 5.

I think this was performed much better than today, even Isha did not receive full 30.

I seriously thought...okay so this is OBVIOUSLY not the best performance...the judges HAVE to give them 8s or 9s (max.) but...wow they shocked me again. Impartiality at its finest.

The judges have gone to the cleaners, throwing out 30s like it's cotton candy or lollipops. What half-baked and trite comments. For the mother of god, I could have given better comments...effin' pay ME! 😆

Firstly, so much to dissect, but starting off with a standing O to the duo for stepping out of their comfort zone every week and trying something new. It's good they are represnting something new b/c half the population doesn't even know a real Afro Jazz. And a plethora of flying roses to Salman for learning AJ and then teaching Drashti. Forgetting the old and learning something from scratch and then teaching another--effin' difficult.

Now to the actual dance and technique of it all. It's supposed to be way more energetic. And I goggled Afro Jazz b/c I've seen only one performance on DWTS with Mark and Aly. Basically, AJ developed as an artistic tool to protest so a lot of the energy coming from the dance symbolizes rebellion and not wanting to conform. There's suppose to be a lot of strong leg work (way more than salman choreographed) like jumping, shuffling, and actual pounding. In addition to this, upper body especially arms are supposed to be in use more and less lifts.

It was a decent performance and a diluted AJ so I wouldn't give it a 30. I did like that they were parrots (very defiant and unconventional) even though I was wary about it, intially.

In context to other performances, it was far more entertaining. I guess b/c they always do those tricky lifts it's more exciting to watch, then say performances that are strictly lift-less (not a word 😆). The trick factor is there, but I really do think performances should be judged on dance, technique, and actual execution.

yes see ! is this Salman's stander .. just see the magic in this dance .. I know u gona say its Isha but still I think DD can do better but the energy is lost in her

look at the afro dance with Isha the force .. today I think the judges went for the overall effect of the act not the dance ..

Remo's Thisss isss ITtt to Madhuri, everyone hesitated it and later some how I felt like threw their comments reluctantly... Same goes to awarding points, spectators appreciation and lack of excitement with the hosts was also noticeable... It clearly looked like they were carrying out an instruction...

Nahi yaar, I have to disagree with what you said about judges reaction here, the channel would not air it if they were really hesitant...they would have edited their expression...madhuri's expressions were blank in all of the performances today...even if the show is scripted, they would get prepared before hand, don't you think? And deliver an even better expression And dialogues? What do you say?
