I have watched Jhalak since it's first season..when it actually used to be a dancing competition & not some OTT nautanki show. Loved Jhalak & even voted for few contestants till season-6.From season-7 onwards, it started going downhill with too much over the top promotions, judges coming & dancing on stage after every 2 secs..Manish's hosting also getting repetitive.. & most importantly SO LESS DANCING. JDJ nowadays does everything EXCEPT dancing ..😡
Anyways, coming to this season.. i got really excited & happy when i heard the news of JDJ having one episode every week.. which means they'll do less nautanki & more dancing.. but i was wrong & Colors did it again & came up with this bullshit idea of splitting the performances.. like half of the celebs will perform on one Saturday..& the rest on another? that's so stupid & dumb (even for Color's standard)..
Summary: Salman's participation, no audience voting, Jacqueline as a judge, too much nautanki & less dancing & the obvious bias towards their channel people makes this season extremely offputting..
The celebs this season has a lot of potential.. but with the new weird format & idea.. it'll be wasted.
Colors completely ruined the once great format of JDJ..i really wish the show goes back to Sony..
