Nach Baliye Score Card

• Jodi Number 1 – Mahhi Vij and Jay Bhanushali

Celebrity couple which made most of the headlines is Jai and Mahi. They have been consistent in their performances throughout the season. Judges are all gaga about their hard work and performances. In fact according to the show's celebrity judge Sajid Khan they have all that it takes to be the winner of this show and others should take their efforts as a warning.

• Jodi Number 2 – Sargun Mehta and Ravi Dubey

They proved to be the dark horse of the race. In their opening act the judges had advised the couple to start enjoying their dance to reflect the energy of the song. They slowly started climbing the score card ladder, were in race of elimination twice but still managed to continue their run

• Jodi Number 3 – Suhasi Dhami and Jaisheel Dhami

This is the only Jodi in the show which represents the true spirit of Nach Baliye. Jaisheel was neither from television fraternity nor a professional dancer but still agreed to match steps with his better half Suhasi. They had a tough time wooing the judges and audiences but finally managed to be in top 4 with their hard work and dedication

• Jodi Number 4 – Neelu Waghela and Arvind Kumar

They were instant favourites and kicked started their Nach Baliye 5 journey by winning the coveted Jodi of the week title. They are the second most consistent performing Jodi after Jai and Mahhi in terms of scores but have faced elimination round twice. Their performances have always been energy packed
