Competition is always welcome: Malaika
Ace dancer and host Malaika Arora is all excited about judging 'Nach Baliye 2'.
After being very well received in the first edition of the successful dance contest, Malaika Arora is set to judge 'Nach Baliye 2' (Star One). With the shoot starting today, she says, "Everyone's expectations are very high. We are all expecting a bigger and better show. But most importantly, we are going to have plenty of fun filled moments and good time."
On her role as a judge she says, "My work is clear cut. I have to concentrate on the chemistry factor, poise, body language, basic style of displaying their dance and the couple's personal style."
She confesses that she has yet to see 'Jhalak..'(Sony). "I have just seen it fleetingly and Farah (Khan) has said that she will give me the CDs of the show to watch it. Competition is always welcome," laughs Malaika.
Malaika's dates are booked till December for this show and she is looking forward to meeting a new set of ten real-life couples. New entrant on the show Kunal Kohli replaces Farhan Akhtar. "I have met Kunal only socially and am sure he will only enhance the show with his presence."
She is excited about the 'trump cards' that the channel has planned to introduce on the show this time. "The show will be on for thirteen weeks as opposed to the ten weeks from Season 1. And, after the fifth episode, one of the eliminated couples will get a wild card entry back in to the contest," says Malaika. The other thing that has got her all keyed up is the launch of her brand. "I hope to launch it by December," Malaika says hopefully.
Last Friday, Malaika was a victim of theft. "I went to the hairdresser and realised much later that someone had wiped out all the money from my wallet. It is very unnerving to know that you are robbed. I am hoping that the thief will be caught." signs off a hassled Malaika.
