NB2 Jodi’s Gallery-No Comments,Read Pg1 - Page 57

The evicted jodis: Sans any pressure of being evaluated, all the other contestants grooved together like one big family! Gauri-Hiten and Sharad-Keerti's performance, though not that impressive was covered up by the looks department while newly weds, Arjun-Gurdeep gave their first performance post their wedding with a jhadu in their hand. Senior couple, Rasik and Ketki played safe by hip-shaking on a retro number. To watch the two effortless and suave dancers, Manav and Gaurav together, was quite remarkable! But Mr. Chopra's dulcinea, Narayani seemed quite disinterested in the on goings. She made a comment "waise main to bura hi bolti hu…."(blame it on a bad hair day?).

Thumps up: It has to be the electrifying and groovy performance by Sarojji's favourite, Shweta Tiwari who raised the mercury level by dancing on crazy kiya re. Proof needed? Kunal literally broke into sweat!!!

Thumps down: Must say Bhaktiar lacks sportsmanship! He's still not got over the depression of his ouster and couldn't even plaster a fake smile though his to be better half, Tanaaz played diplomatic to the hilt!

The judges: More than the jodis it were the judges who were bubbling with enthusiasm, so much that on every track played, they kept dancing in spite of being glued to their chairs. The editing department must have had a tough time putting together both the jodis and the judges dancing in one frame (lol). Saroj Khan took centre stage as she displayed her aadayein, her trademark thumnkas on main saat samundar and she rightly deserved a thunderous applause!

Thumps up: The sexy and spellbinding performance by Malaika (in an ultra sexy black ensemble) on yeh mera dil wins hands down. Tagged as a tribute to her Helen aunty, this act can easily beat the latest version in SRK's Don. Is Farhan Akhtar regretting?

Thumps down: And what about Kunal??? Why didn't he do 'chance pe dance' like the Khan ladies?

The choreographers: All the dance instructors to the TV celebs grabbed the limelight as each came forth and displayed what they know best! And what better song to be selected - Nach Baliye Remixed!

Thumps up: The harmony and fusion created between the choreographers was quite appealing!

Thumps down: When given a mike, the choreographers first are simply at loss words but once they get accustomed to it, we witness a verbal diarrhea!!! And before we forget to mention, Arjun-Gurdeep's choreographer Pinky (who has often buttered Sarojji) needs to spank her designer! She looked an eyesore in those tacky and garish green pants.

The anchors: If we call this finale episode a well baked cake, the yummy icing can be credited to the anchors Shabbir Alhuwalia and Rajev Paul who entertained one and all with their Munna-Circuit spoof. Though unlike Arshad, Rajev has two left feet, he backed the small screen Munna with his funny mannerisms.

Thumps up: It was the hunk of tellydom, Shabbir who charmed everyone with his comic timing, his dialogue delivery and his tapori dance! Bollywood, are you listening?

Thumps down: Once again the fairer sex (Sangeeta Ghosh in this case) was left with just the same old task…add oomph to the show!
