Totally agree with u i wonder why did karan give her 10..if she is not from india and doing an indian dance which is new for her judge give her 10 and 9 though she is professional but this dance form is new for her..the other contestents are non dancers all the dance formns are new to them the too deserve a 10 and 9 most of the time..why did they give so much marks if it was not good means it was not good they should have given 7 or 6 but judges are just lauren lauren and keep giving her 10 the earlier seasons were the best

I think that everyone on this show has been butchering dance forms. The Pasa Doble that some contestants present, the Salsa that some contestants try to show - none of those dance forms are proper. And PD, Salsa, etc. are dances we are exposed to; at least, these contestants (except maybe Shaan) are exposed and have previously done these dance styles..- in clubs, in movies/TV shows, in shows, etc.

Bharatnatyam is something that Lauren has never done. She was basically challenged by the public so she gave it her best and presented a dance style that the Indian public wanted her to do. (Even people around me who were watching Jhalak commented that why are they making only Lauren do an Indian style when the others aren't doing it?). Her efforts should be appreciated as she has demonstrated that she can do any dance style - and is the best dancer on jhalak.

The dance was amazing!!! The postures she held were beautiful and the expressions were bang-on. I agree that the softness usually seen in Indian dance forms wasn't there but like commented on, this is something we can't expect her to understand (as she doesn't put on a maang teeka or make a chooti), this not being her life-style.

IMO, the act was very entertaining and the scores were fair as Remo and Madhuri scored on the technique and KJo scored on the overall effect.

grt shely dat u r suporting lauren
bt remember in tymes of karanvir,dd and everyone even shann wen he did malakhamb
appreciation was dere bt not going ga ga wat karan did in some major wrong dance steps
if birju maharaj was over dere he wud have been shocked by th fastness of the dance,stiffness and lifts
it was entertaing
bt if the jugdes are dere 2 c the dance acts den its wrong
wen dd was given 24 i agree 2 dat bcoz it was below average
laurens bharat natyma was average

a topic was made about unfair judgements now some judging drashti dances and others lauren.
honestly i didn't find the dance that interesting and it was not worth 9,she is a good dancer but that doesn't mean she excel everywhere..it was not a good bharatnathyam.
other contestants also tried their hands in new dance forms so why don't they get extra points for new dance forms pathetic judgements...these judges can sleep where lauren is concern n give a 10 as soon as they wake up..they are making public disliking her

Thank you so much for giving a sensible comment. This forum had become a war zone, people are blindly following their favourite contestants and they can't see the fair/unfair thing that is actually happening.

I loved many of lauren's performances like the charlie chaplin act. donno why that didnt get 30 yet ... the act of shama and parwana...
But offlate the performance are degraded and whom to blame? The judges who is making unnecessary hypes.
And its not about lauren did bad, its about how the judges are unfair and this is making other contestant's fans hate her. Thats it..

I accept and respect ur POV shelly dear... but the thing is not abt the dance forms...but abt the remarks the judges give...u can say wat u said in bold but v can't get an confirmation of wat ppl knw and knw not...i guess... even v can say being a professional dancer v can say Lauren cud have watched vdo's to understand a format...if other contestants can do..am i rite...
and i accept with the other two's comments also...if v see it from a dance point of view..as i have a little bit of knowledge in certain dance forms..tho not internal one's..but little bit of indian one's

The format is warped. The current JDJ is more about professionals than amateurs. Rest assured, this is my last season for JDJ. I might quit if Shaan and Drashti are voted out. I am not going choose between a professional dancer and kids.

Judging: I am not even voicing my frustrations...

i guess i am quoting out of order.. but if this post is not about how lauren did bad... the words like pathetic and other quotes wouldn't have been used😊..

it is ok to not like a performance. but trashing it outright. and when some people put forward their views that the performance deserved the marks that it got.. terming them as blind fans and unable to see fair/unfair thing is not ok me thinks.

judges were always unfair. (depending on which contestant you are rooting for). i for one think they (especially madhuri) are being unfair towards sumant. they treat him as if he doesn't exist when he is the better dancer.

strictly my POV.

edit: about other contestants fan hating lauren.. well she was hated from day one. ST took a little heat off. but now that lauren is getting consistent good marks... the hate is outpouring in massive quantities.😊..

Ok now we are going on and on.. :-)

Sorry if it hurted you but the word pathetic was only for that act not for a person. If the act was presented with another name, it would have been ok . But seriously I couldnt digest it being called Bharatanatyam atleast not for me. I could nowhere see Bharatanatyam in it. If you say it was only fast and brisk; come on that is the basic of the dance form, the grace and it does have fast moves but not what was shown yesterday. And particularly I was referring to the judges who are trained dancers and choreographers saying it was good, sorry I couldnt digest that. A new generation who watches the show will believe that this is what is Bharatnatyam. What learning we are giving to our new generations about our classical dance forms. Atleast give proper comment and give whatever score they want to give.

I donno whom to blame it , the choreographer or the channel who foreced her to do that but if it is called Bharathnatyam it is pathetic for me for sure.

And sure there are other scenarios where they are unfair, not only Madhuri I rarely see anyone commenting on Sumanth, whereas all the dancing is done by Sumant and Sholani is always on lifts.

yup we are going on and on😊..

and no i am not hurt. i like lauren not an obsessive fan...

actually i have seen ballet bharatnatyam, similar styles of fusion dance so i don't mind this one too. i am all for innovation provided the basics aren't tampered with.

and reality shows especially jhalak is not a platform to teach younger generation about dance. for here dances are modified to induced more wow factors and enhance impact...

proper commenting... they said grace is missing and that was an apt and major comment.

for you it is pathetic..it is ok...

but saying it wont look like bharatnatyam even for a common man is a little harsh. my pov.

atleast we agree on sumanth part..

(i thought their judging sucked when they went gaga over tango and flamenco where tadka was more and dance was less. but i still think those dances were good. if not original actual dance format)...

bye from my side. it was good debating with you. (really.😊).

good day.

thnks medha

my sister is a bharatnatyam dancer and i have seen her shows manytime also live shows

not only stiff bt also the lifts dnt u think its 2 much unaceptable?????????????

i am big fan of DD and i just love laurens performances ,bt c is 2 2 fast,c is a grt dancer and fastest learner bt the bharat natyam went wrong 24 wud have benn encouraging

c shud understand though c is a grt dancer it needs ages to get even few percent of clarity in dese grt indian dance formats

also KJO was the most irritating one how can he giv 10 out of 10

dats y DID is the best,atleast judges are choreograhers dey understand dance

i am not a Lauren hater,i appreicaite al her efforts bt at the end of the indian dance formats is not a cake walk

and dnt FORGET c is free at this point,only DD is working round the clock geting harldy 1/5th of the tyme wat lauren is getting

First of all it's very unfair how these contestants able to those scores after such a pathetic performance. Seriously Shaan and Drashti did a worse job and still got away with compliments and marks.so there goes to say how unfair for other contestants like Lauren and shonali , now for Mukti this week even to hear those undeserving praises of these non performers.

I completely dismayed by today's judjement.
