Why are people comparing Sid and Shan ?

They have their independent growth and can't be compared.:)

In this topic ? I don't think anyone is doing it. If in other posts of the forum then I don't know why. Both are good and both are making us happy. Judges and host tease Salman and Shan so much that no doubt fans are becoming insecure. 😕

Finally MDS updates us with a review .. sheesh. 😆

My breakdown starting with Ranbhir's fan .. Swasti!

Swasti annoyed me beyond my limits. I don't care much for the kid dancers (minus Sid, Teriya, and Spandan - Spandan really because she's adorable and funny), and the focus on Swasti and her pre and post stuff was annoying and should have been eliminated. We get she's a huge huge fan of Ranbhir, but it was all a bit over the top.

Which brings me to those weird fans in the audience. Polygamy? The lady with the family was willing to get married to Ranbhir and have a kid? And some poor little kid who was brave enough to say that Ranbhir wasn't her new papa, was roped into the "Marrying Ranbhir" party. I get Manish's part was all a joke, not sure about the audience, but still left a weird taste. Mini rant over. 😆

Moving on to Teriya. Her performance wasn't bad in terms of dancing - she's definitely skilled - but they missed out on the theme entirely and didn't create the story. I think Manish said something about loving the earth or something, but that was missed out completely. Teriya lacked facial expressions as well, from what I saw, but she still performed well. Her mistakes in the end were mistakes, but 21 ... seriously? One point for the lack of story, one point for the lack of a proper finish?

I got distracted with Nora. But I let it play. I skipped Swasti's performance.

Shantanu was superb like usual and his dances are always a treat. Like MDS says, he's definitely one of, if not the, best dancer on Jhalak. There's a particular grace that he brings that no other performer has brought to the stage yet. I think 27-28 (Jacqueline would be giving the 10 of course) would be well deserving.

Sid Nigam ... what I love about him is how humble he is. It's a treat just to see him bowing or folding his hands. I think he bowed down / folded his hands like 15 times during the entire show. Whenever his name was mentioned, hands automatically go up. When he leaves the stage, he bows to the audience. He actually falls to his knee and bows to the stage or whoever. He's only 16 and shows this much humility, special props to Siddharth. He's an inspiration to all of us.

Moving on to his performance - I don't think he deserved a 30, definitely a 29 though. There were noticeable mistakes in his performance where he wasn't caught up to Vaishnavi, for example sometimes Vaishnavi's moves were a little faster than Sid's (or Sid was slower than Vaishnavi, it's one and the same). However, what Sid nailed us on was the performance itself. He and Vaishnavi (and Vivek) brought the music, the words, the meaning to life within his dance and as a dancer, I think that's one of the key things. Shantanu brought bits and pieces of the song to life, but Sid and Vaishnavi really carried it throughout, emphasized with it, played with it, and that's why I feel Sid deserves the more points he received. It was a fantastic concept and very unique. Everyone else was focusing on the dils between lovers, Vivek / Sid / Vaishnavi changed the entire meaning. I will admit though, I wanted to see Sid and Vaishnavi do something super romantic, but not disappointed in the slightest. Sid has really come a long way since last year's appearance, and so has Vaishnavi.

In the end, both Sid and Shaan did a superb job and hey, this time it was Sid; I have no doubt that Shaan will also become the Jhalak of the Week person thingamabob. Rooting for those two to battle it out in the end. Though if that happens, I'll be Team Sid all the way. 😃 Right now, it's Team SidSha 😆😆

I don't know who Tushar is, but his performance in the beginning .. daayyyuumm... 👏👏👏
