ok my turn

gauri-yash--this jodi has def. improved from the first round. infact i liked this "preformance" more than their comedy round "preformance". it was more interesting πŸ˜ƒ

manav-sweta--manav was too good but sweta looked a little odd in her outfit...maybe its becuase of her height. but there dance was πŸ‘

sweta-raja--i have developed such dislike for sweta that i have stopped watchin her performances 😑 ... saroj khan's antics and sweta's crying skills are to be blamed for this. i likes raja though--his effort shows

gurdip-arjun--they looked cute. but their dance wasnt outstanding. it was ok. maybe they shud have been given a 22 😊

gauri-hiten--i dont pay much attn to their "preformance" cuz they are quite boring...there is no outstanding choreography or interesting concepts...chemistry is good but thats not enuf πŸ˜• πŸ˜• πŸ˜•

hussain-tina--my fav...love this couple...maybe kunal's kisses are for tina but my kisses are only for hussain. they deserved a least a 29 if not 30 πŸ‘

kirti-sharad--their steps werent in sync but the effort showed. they were given hard steps and they tried to do justice to the pace of the song πŸ‘

tanaaz-bakhtyar-- tanaaz was very good but bakhtyar needs to slow down...everytime he jumps i feel that he is going to jump out of that screen right into my living room. πŸ˜†

well thats is for me

Tenaaz bakhtyaar, shweta manav, and hussain and tina were clearly the best in this episode. Actually I felt shweta and manav deserved a perfect 10 for their performance because they were as good as tenaaz and bakhtyaar. Yash and Gauri were good and deserved their scores, personally i cant stand yash but i gotta give credit where credit is due. Keerti and sharad hammed as usual, and kunal was right, sharad was "dheela", in fact i found their ishq kamina better than this one. Shweta Tiwari was bad (she looks amazing but still), raja is just there for show since he barely moves. Hiten and gauri were ok (my favorite jodi), better than before but for unfortunately for them they can't dance and they got stuck with a garbage choreographer, if they had a good choreographer they would perform much better, like varun and rageshwari in nb1 varun wasnt a great dancer but their choreographer was the best one of all in nb1 and i think from what i've seen he was the best from nb1 and 2 combined, yet he still performed so hiten and gauri need good choreographer

i agree with most of the comments written here πŸ˜ƒ

bakhtyar definitely needs to take a chill pill! he always seems hyper-enthusiastic. also, if tanaaz-bakhtyar could get 30, with some steps lifted straight from the movie, then manav-shweta and hussain-tina should have gotten atleast 28-29, if not 30, !!! πŸ˜• both these jodis were very nice πŸ‘

gaur-hiten were stiff, but are improving.

yash-gauri were really good too!! more so, because i love that song, and gauri performed so well when she had fever.

gurdeep-arjun were good, and hats off to gurdeep for picking up so nicely after her fall πŸ‘. however, i agree with the judges that they should have had a story/ concept along with the song.

raja-shweta - the less said the better. should add that raja is improving.

also the end was nice, with keerti appreciating that her fellow contestants voted for a better couple, and against her. i didn't like them and all, but liked their composed exit πŸ‘

Two things I noticed right away - Amit looked out of sorts and Neeru looked smashing. They also did not look much in love or even a couple, especially on Neeru's part. She danced with grace and style, but the I was surprised at her clear Hindi diction. Obviously she has been working on it as there is such a spectacular improvement from her Astitva days.

1) The show started with a bang with Sharad Kirti dancing on a very peppy number. They actually looked cute and I liked their performance. Kirti was looking very very cute in her pink and green punjabi dress. But what really took the cake was their ever so graceful and dignified exit. All the bad vibes that they had created in the last two episodes were washed away by their genuinely mature behaviour and the grace with which they accepted their defeat. Kirti's last punch of her being thankful to all for taking the right decision this time and not letting Gurdeep and Arjun loose like gaurav and Narayani was the cherry on the cake. Hats off to them.

2) I am not sure why Hussain and Tina keep loosing those crucial points from the judges. I felt their concept was the most different and executed in an amazing manner. Tina brings an extra grace to her movements. She actually looks effortless while dancing, as if she is floating. Hussain is exceptional dancer. Both have so much fire and so much chemistry that you can almost touch it. Tina is not an actress nor she looks like one. But has fantastic expressions. Yet they loose out on vital points......it's perplexing.

3) Gauri Hiten rocked. They looked beautiful, they danced beautifully, and the concept was realy cute. But Saroj was right this time. Those dancers with their too colourful and contrasting get ups were actually an obstruction to the performance, and they took away rather than adding to it. They were all over the stage, and while the tv camera focuses on the main couple, a live audience would have difficulty in following gauri and hiten amongst that crowd of constantly moving hands and feet. Gauri looked oh so mumtaz 😳, though Hiten looks better in his trendy sherwanis and suits πŸ˜†. He would have looked totally out of place in the flowery 70s !!! Someone mentioned that they have a bad choreographer, and I am beginning to think that might actually the root cause of their low scores. Though today I think they deserved at least an 8 for the dance.......if Shweta can earn it for a lacklustre performance, i wonder why Hiten and gauri don't get anything for their obvious improvement.

4) Hats off to Gurdeep. The time where she fell was crucial and the whole dance could have been thrown out of tempo. She carried on as if nothing happened. many many cheers to this gusty punjaban !!! And she really looked so beautiful today. Arjun is a one lucky guy. Arjun in contrast looked dull...Poor guys had actually mentally ticked themselves off from the competition. A full 10 from me to Gurdeep just for being so accepting abot it. No tears, no melodramaπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

5) Talking of melodrama, I am at a complete loss to understand Shweta Tiwari. By each episode I am more and more impressed by Raja. he is not a dancer, but he obviously works hard, is practical and dignified. Shweta on the other hand exasperates me. The last three episodes were full of tears and drama and what not. This episode, she had this strangest expression on her face. It was as if she was trying to keep an expressionless face, but ended up looking like she was sulking big time......πŸ˜•...eyes narrow, mouth down, nostrils flared.......πŸ˜•. She is possibly the prettiest girl on the hsow, and perhaps the most graceful, but I have a feeling she can't take defeats in her life. Their dance was cute, but looked quite mechanical. No chemistry, no fire. ( BTW, do you guys think she read IF comments on her tears? It could be possible you know, and that explains the failed attempt of expressionless face throughout the show πŸ˜†.)

6) Shweta Kawatra on the other hand looked stunning, and she now matches step for step with her brilliant dancer husband. And they look made for each other. Stunning couple, lovely dance and what I like best about this couple is that they come across as such warm people. They are fast becoming my fav couple.

7) Yash and Gauri I feel deserved some more marks for their performance. Their dance was well choreographed, and both danced well today.

8) Tanaz Bhaktiyar are the best dancers and they are proving it with each passing episode. Bhaktiyar's energy and Tanaz's grace both work together to create such a great piece of high voltage entertainment. However, though their concept was pretty good, it was not as extraordinary like it was of Hussain Tina. But the perfection that they both bring to dance is amazing. I also thought they had the most complementary background setting. The background dancers formed a perfect backdrop for the colours and energy that Tanaz and Bhaktiyar exuded.

Please do give your takes too.

Yes, i agree with that. They do have a terribly ordinary choreographer. he did make Gauri and Hiten look better this time, but then he brought all that bheed on the stage who were all over eclipsing the lead pair. It's especially can be a disadvantage when you have good dancers dancing at the back while the lead is more dependent on looks, chemistry and an obvious effort at dancing. That works on the camera but not in live.

Their choreographer is πŸ‘ŽπŸΌ

Well that brings us to the point on what's the role of choregrapher in this show. The show is not about dancing couples only and its a competition between the choregraphers also. The choreography is not only about dancing but also about the whole concept and presentation. In such case GHT's choreographers needs to learn a lot. My guess is that GHT have been following his/her commands as it is, thinking that dancing is not their cup of tea. But its high time now that they should have an open discussion with their choreo and plan to do something which has more creativity.
Both of them are so good actors but till date none of their dance have captured this aspect. Remember in comedy round the concept that Manav-Shweta used involved lot of acting skills and that helped them a lot since they are very good actors.
Similary Hussain and Tina's choreographer always uses a concept which shows the humerous and energetic aspect of Hussain and softness of tine. This helped them as their jodi has been projected like this.
In case of shweta and raja their choregrapher used the dancing skills of shweta and choose a song/concept for first and second round which kept focus on shweta more. But in last two rounds they suddenly moved to concepts where more focus is given to raja. I think this is not helping them, they should keep on giving the more focus to shweta and gradually increase the raja's role. This is how the choreography works, look into the plus and minus of your dancers and enhance the plus points and improve on minuses.

I also think that after the performance the choregraphers should aslo come on stage to take the equal responsibility for teh show. What do u all think.

Gauri-Hiten's choreographer doesn't look too good, he doesn't have any new ideas as a rule. But sometimes new ideas come from the contestants also (e.g. Gauri-Yash in the comedy round).They should all sit together and figure out a way to make the judges take notice. So far they have shown some improvement as dancers, but compared to the way others are improving (e.g. Shweta-Manav, Gauri-Yash), its very small. They need to take a leap in terms of innovativeness.

They were probably trying to get rid of the conception that Raja doesn't dance. But they did it way too fast, Raja still cannot handle a dance by himself. I don't understand why Shweta's dancing has gone so downhill though, last time she wasn't even completing her moves.πŸ˜•

Well Saroj Khan uusually directs most of her comments at the choreographers, so they are already being made to take responsibility for their work.

I think Manav and Shweta have shown the greatest amount of improvement and that's very impressive.
Poor Gurdip, though, she handled it really well. The choreography of their song, however, was terrible. I had no idea wth was going on.
I can't even remember what Kirti and Sharad danced in...lol πŸ˜†
Shweta T danced well, she always does. But the steps were very dull. And as someone mentioned, focus was on Raja and well... 'nuff said.
Hussain Tina were perfect. The Suno Sasurjee theme was both funny and cute.
I loved the "Swayamvar" thing for Tanaaz and Bakhtiyar. It was so funny when Salman and Hrithik lookalikes arrived first πŸ˜†πŸ˜†. Bakh, tho, needs to CALM down a little bit.


As for Hiten and Gauri, I agree that they need to sit down with their choreographer and discuss some crucial points. He definitely lacks the ability to come up with innovative ideas. Their biggest problem is the way their songs and concept don't match up. In the last episode, I expected something hilarious when they stole the mala from the bride and groom. But instead, they started dancing and the others crowded around them. And where was the shaadi theme in their song, anyway? In the comedy episode, Hiten arrived in a Krrish costume which had no relevance to the song. It would have been better if he came dressed as a parrot πŸ˜† Seriously, concept-wise I loved their first performance. They may have been stiff, but atleast the steps and costumes were in sync with a hiphop song.

i agree...their first performance was the best one... their choreographer needs to give them harder steps because the competition is only going to get tougher and dance-wise this is the weakest jodi left...they need to pull up their socks because audience votes cant take them very far
