Slated to hit the screens in mid-July, the bi-weekly big ticket show is a dance competition between boys and girls. Eight celebrities in each team will prove their strength against each other.

Star One EVP and GM Ravi Menon says, "We have been setting trends with our offerings. After Nach Baliye and The Great Indian Laughter Challenge, many similar shows have popped up in other channels. With this new show the gender war will get an all new meaning. We have roped in best dancers from the TV industry in both the teams."

The first day will be a 'performace episode' for one and half hour while the second episode will be a 'challenge episode' for one hour.

Each 'performance episode' will have seven different performances across both teams wherein the jury will decide one winner. For the weaker team, the challenge episode will give an opportunity to bounce back. Until the last episode there will be no eliminations.

"We will give away cumulative points to each team. If the weaker team accepts the challenge and performs better, then they get double points. These points will be added up till the last episode to decide the winner," adds Menon.

However, Menon was tightlipped about the jury members and other details of the show.

In the girls team, the celebrity contestants include Delnaz Paul, Mouni Roy, Maninee Day, Rupali Ganguly, Karishma Tanna, Jennifer Winget and Sweeni Khare. Ali Asghar, Amit Tandon, Bakhtiyar Irani, Manish Goel, Chaitanya Chowdhury, Vikas Sethi Gaurav Chippra and Amey Pandya will participate from the boy's team.
