Quarter finals on Dec 4 - Your views

(Thanks to Topranger)

Hiten-Gauri- I don't know if it was the video I watched or the show but I felt Gauri started before the song and for some time the whole dance and song was out of sync. The song was their choice and a bad one. There is no dearth of nice dance songs. I wish they had gone last time when they were good. 5/10

Arvind (H-G's choreographer) - His dance was not well choreographed still I liked his energy. Now I won't be blaming him for H-G's bad performances in the past. I think he knew the limitations of his jodi.

Yash-Gouri – I am shocked at judges' comments. They should be made to watch all the dances of B-T and they will find same steps in every dance.This jodi tried something different and just because judges are only used to bollywood style of dancing or Kathak they thought 'Oh! Yeh dekha hai pehle'. Saroj Khan had similar comments for Tanaz and then gave her 10. She tried putting down Deepak too. She might be a great choreographer but she should realize that she has limitations too. All dances are not mujras. I enjoyed Y-G's dance👏. 9/10

Deepak ((Y-G's choreographer) – He is the best choreographer and also lot of humility.

Tanaz-Bhaktyaar- Old wine in new bottle. Boring old steps again. They toned out the jumps though which is good. Saroj Khan while commenting on their mistakes had the smile 🤢which she lacked while commenting on Y-G. When it comes to this jodi they always get points on the theme not dance. 7/10

Mini (B-T's choreographer)- Her makeup was inspired by Odissi dance. If I am not mistaken Vyjayanthi mala also had similar getup in this song. Mini was very good but I felt she missed expressions sometimes while she was still good at dancing. That is a major flaw in all dancers. Some people continue to dance well but they forget showing the same on their face.

Hussain-Tina – Awesome chemistry. Totally in sync👏. Someone should make a movie with this couple in lead. I won't write anything more. 😳My score 10/10😳

Harshall-Vithall (H-T's choreographer) - I think they have a bright future in Bollywood👏. They rock just like their jodi. They truly deserved that trophy.👏

I missed Manav-Shweta.😭

hun, i love your comment about Hutina!!! They should be in complete love story, Kunal are you listening??? 😳

Proud to be Hutina fan 😃

Huti->TB/YG->GHT my order of there performances.
HV/D->M/A it was very evident Arvind dint practice..he just came on stage and danced but he was gud..well but the best exit was by GHT..i luv them the most 😳

Gauri-Hiten : They were out of sync and the steps were quite amateurish. Not a quarterfinal performance. 5/10

Arvind : It was obvious that he didn't choreograph the dance. He is a very good dancer, but maybe not that good in choreography. 6/10

Gauri-Yash : Why why why did they do a latino dance? They did this salsa and got a 30 on it, obviously comparisons were inevitable. They should have done something they had not done before, just to make people sit up and take notice. Dance was beautiful though, just bad judgement on their part. 9/10

Deepak : Okay, the guy is a really graceful dancer. Doesn't look like it when he talks and all, looks very awkward in fact, but when he dances..... 10/10

Tanaaz-Bakhtyar : GGood performance, but not that great. Repetitive steps. Maybe their energy in a live performance totally thrills the judges so that they don't notice the steps, while we watch on TV and so the impact is less? Either that or the judges are in love with them.
😕 8/10

Minnie : Good steps, but not the greatest semi-classical dance I have seen. Of course if one compares with the original it looks worse, mainly because Minnie's expressions need working on. 8/10

Tina-Hussein : Good concept, great execution. In the earlier blindfold dance I had felt that Tina seemed slightly nervous, this time both gelled perfectly. These guys always try out these gimmicky concepts and each time I think-- Uh oh, something will go wrong! But they always manage to pull it off. They must be the only couple of the last three who never gave a bad performance. 👏 10/10

Harshal-Vithhal : Nice gimmicky dance. I personally preferred Deepak because that was more slow dance and this was more exercise-ish, but they were eye-catching, and deserved the trophy. 10/10

I agree about Hussain-Tina👍🏼

Ok my take on the QFs:

Gauri Hiten- Dance: less said the better 😃
But they had the most decent and light hearted exit. Hiten was humble enough to admit that all were better than them but still they stayed longer, here i differ though as not ALL of them were better than HG. they also have given some memorable performances. 👏 Hats off to Hiten and Gauri.

Arvid , their choreographer: I wonder why did he take the competition so lightly? I smell something fishy here as HG's ouster didnt see any change of expressions on anyone's face, not even on their best friends'. As I read somewhere Ketki pointing on that if HG can survive with 15 points howcome they were out on 18?

Yash-Gauri- Dance: Flawless, better than their previous Salsa. But yes why on earth did they choose the same form of dance at this stage of competition? they desrved 27/30 I think Saroj Khan was furious on Deepak giving her explanations, she doesnt like ppl arguing with her. (Remember Sharad-Kirti's first Choreo-Kiran? he had to leave after that)

Deepak, their Choreographer: Simply superb, His partner was a bit stiff though. But still a 10/10

Bakhtiyar Tanaz- Dance: I think the one thing that TB badly lack is the connection with the audiance. Their performance are, always(except for that romance round performance which was a little touching), so much in-your-face, its just like we are watching something passing by. I dont know why dont they understand this. I know they are superb dancers they just need to know and understand that there is no such thing called perfection, nobody is perfect, everybody and everything always has a scope for improvement. Also, there performances lack variety. And this time they not only repeated their own steps but also copied Tina-Husain's ones too.even the concept was the same. My grade- 25/30

Mini,their Choreographer: Very nice. she delivered just what was needed in the song. I really felt sorry that she could'nt fetch more points , problem could be that the judges might be expecting something surprising. Poor soul her performance deserved a 10/10


Tina-Husain- Dance: Mindblowing, Watched it at least 20 times. I could feel the softness of those feathers which fell on them in the end. ooooooooh so sweet.
I have one complaint-the judges didnt praise them enough 😳 I mean they should have commented on how awesome they were looking, how flawless their performance was and how deeply in love they looked with each other.

Harshal-Vitthal: Awesome performance , when the camera would go to a certain angle, it was difficult to actually make out that there were two ppl dancing. Just amazing.

I missed Gauri-Hitens and Arvinds performances, so i cant comment on them. 😭

Tina-Hussain : They were mindblowing! Amazing chemistry, very well cordinated, very gud expressions, amazing emotions.. and plz remember, im not a HT fan from the start! 😃. So 30/30
Their Chorergaphers : They were a mirror image of each other. A very tough performance but a flawless won! The way they coordinated wid each other, the way they copied each other, it was amazing. they deserved the best chorergaphers award.

Gauri-Yash : I didnt find them very repetetive. I think there might be one or at the most two steps similiar but the judges were too harsh on them. Salsa was totally different from this. Maybe they should have choosen a different form of dance.They deserved 29/30
Deepak : I think saroj ji was wrong to give Deepak 9. I think she was just angry at him for giving the explanations. She thinks that she is best! Anyways, deepak was amazing. Amazing choregapher, coordination and most fo all chemistry. And he did something different from other choregraphers.

Taanaz-Bakhtyaar : I personally liked their concept of heroine and newcomer but unfortuantly instead of making full use of it, dey wasted it by doing repeititive steps and i cud see similiarties from HT romance round peformance. However i liked the use of ropes and found dat amazing!! 😊 So 26/30
Mini - I missed her performance!! 😭

That were my comments!!!

I miss manav-shweta too..

saroj's expressions were rude when talking to yg whereas with tb she was sugary..I hated that..

and even if deepak had done entirely different salsa saroj would not have known the difference..she isnt an authority on latin is she??

and yes as pooja said, it didnt find the dance too repititive..

except for a handful of steps , deepak had introduced a lot of extra ones too
