Who is currently the best dancer amongst all SD kids.?

As many advantages as there are in learning dance at a young age, there are also some disadvantages, because the body goes through a lot of changes. Choosing the right style, learning from the right people, consistent training, every thing matters. Most kids of previous seasons are all grown up, some are still pursing dance, as of today who according to you is the best dancer amongst all SD kids? Take one name only. 😋 You can also include this season. Personally for me it’s Gourav from S3.

Ek ko chunna impossible hai 😆 I mean, all kids styles are different and I think many are excellent in their styles. Gaurav for me also, might be the best, but he has an added advantage that there aren't many great dancers in his style of dancing, at least that I know of. So he sticks out. I think Mishti is outstanding, and Yogesh has grown to be one of the finest dancers tbh. This season, of course Pratiti is something else. I'd add her to topmost as well. Such professionalism in her dance at this age is unbelievable

@bold: Very true. This I felt for Dipali. She was amazing as a child. But I don't find her as dignified or gracious now as before tbh, Maybe I haven't seen enough dances of her now, only those reels, but I still feel that x factor is gone now 🤪

Wanna hear your thoughts too @tagged peeps 😆

Oooh thats too much work for my bad memory now I need to remember all the kids from past seasons 🤣😭

I would choose Tejas probably from all the first 3 seasons combined. I think he is one of those kids whose passion hasn't faded even after the show got over. Like I keep seeing in the BTS his focus is always dance and absolutely love his footwork. Plus I think he also gives the correct expressions with the dance which is almost always lacking in many people doing his style of dancing. Esp now when I used to go back and watch many old performances of his from last season. Gaurav is really good but maybe I don't really enjoy his style of dancing so I kinda get bored after a few performances of his.

Though I'd definitely add Pratiti and Anshika from this season.They are so precise at what they do.. There's not a single false note or something extra in their performance. And I chose both since they are at two extremes. Pratiti is pure classical while Anshika is modern yet they are so perfect with the performances. I would also say another advantage Pratiti has is that she is really versatile.

And honestly not joking but I think I would also add Sanchit since I really believe he is a wonder child and unique. Yeah the lad does need some training on expressions (and good jokes🤣) but his biggest achievement is that he has created his own dance style that is really very unique. There have been times even in his not so good performances that I've just stared at his legs. It's really a wonder who a kid at this age can do that so smoothly.

So yeah there goes my list. Sorry, don't think you're gonna get just one name from anybody 🤣

Yeh kaisi chunouti hein bhaiiiiiiiii 😕 it's like asking me which one u love best :

🍔 🍕 🍫 🍦 🍗 🌯 🥟 🍜 🍟 🍩 🌮🍮🧋

Anyhow, if i have to choose one i would say Tejas, till date he is unmatchable. Gaurav is too but he is best at what he does but Tejas can adapt to other styles pretty easily. And the swag that boy hasssssssssss

But i can't leave Akash and Mishti either 😆 they both have grown into such amazing performers.

And i can also give u my futuristic answer : Pratiti. The growth she has shown in this show in terms of dancing, expressions, execution, only Aneesh comes to that category with her. And she has the potential to take Bharatnatyam to the international like Kumar did to Kathak if she keep training. In 6 months, she brought this improvement, imagine what she gonna do in next 6yrs

My list has many other ppl but right now can't remember the name except Shettttttttyyyyyyy for some reason Felix ka asar

For me in the previous seasons would have been akash thapa or rupsa.. their growth, and especially akash’s has been insane throughout the years!!!

Currently though, i feel it would be Sanchit. That kid has a very memorable quality about him. Ofcourse there will be kids who are amazing in the next seasons , but i dont think anyone will ever be known by their own style like sanchit! (Or rarely there would be such contestants) There could be better classical dancers, contemporary dancers or free stylers, but sanchit’s uniqueness and memorability factor is the reason i choose him. And lets not forget, he has an X factor which is missing in quite a few of even the finalists of previous season. Not to mention, he has shown how versatile his style can be too which is a good way to promote it!!!

I did not have a favorite in season 1 and while it is hard to pick one overall I would say Akash Thapa. He was my all time favorite during his season and was such a cute and naughty little boy it reminds me of Sanchit this season a little bit personality wise both cute boys with hero qualities so I would go with Akash though I am not too fond of this bad-boy grown type image he seems to portray on his instagram off late. In season 3 I liked Tejas a lot but could not connect with him tho he is a brilliant dancer probably the best of his season was not a fan of robotics so did not connect with Gaurav and did not like the choreography Nishant would give Rupsa to do though she was another brilliant dancer. Did not like Saksham and forgot the other kids.

also want to add the one kid overall whose dancing I enjoy watching the most as a viewer is none other than miss Florina Gogoi. Never cannot smile when she is dancing such a cutie pie and pure joy to watch. The other kids this season are very forgettable to me I would say cept her and Sanchit though I think the boring season makes them forgettable. Florina has a strong personality which translates to some extent in her dancing and left an impact on me no other super dancer kid has. Wish we could see her freestyle on her own instead of TS choreo.

Thanks for replying guys. True, it’s impossible to pick one, everyone is so talented. We have our own biases in terms of dance style and dancers. Anyways hope to see some of these kid grow up and become great artists and creatives internationally.

I am a huge fan of Bailey Sok, she literally grew up in front the cameras for an audience like me, dancing and collaborating with different choreographers and artists, she is such an amazing dancer. I also love the work of Sean Lew, his choreography has heart and it’s always so poetic. Kaycee and his dance on “False confidence” is still one of my favourites. And these folks are only 17-19 years old. I hope in India we nurture these talented kids into becoming dancing greats of the world. And to be able to spread the true joy and love of dance.

OMG How did I forget my favorites, Akash Tejas and Rupsa 🤓

Okay I want to elaborate now. I feel like I'm cheating on my favorite kids without taking their name 🤣

Yogesh and Akash - When I saw them dancing years after I saw in SD, I was really amazed. It was nothing like what they did in their respective seasons. Both of them doing hip-hop with so much power, at the same time so graceful and expressive with their lyrical dance. I initially thought Yogesh had some problems with missing the timing and Akash's dance didn't look consistently effortless. Yogesh's recent acts have proved me wrong though. So I'd put Yogesh above Akash for now, plus I think Yogesh can do what Akash does, while vice versa is not true These two are still two of my favorites from all seasons 😳 First impressions do last I guess ❤️

Tejas and Rupsa - Very different duo, but one thing they both have in common is that you cannot look at anyone else when they are performing 😆 Star performers in the truest sense. Tejas stands out more because of his attituuuudee Like Momma and Robz said, it's something else. A star quality. I don't think he's better than TS like Robz claims, not in terms of dance, but he definitely overpowers his guru with his swag. Geeta rightly said in their grand premier, ek kichaav hai uski taraf, he makes you look at him

As for Rupsa, what do I say. The most endearing thing about her is, she feels like she's performing only for you while also completely enjoying it herself. I can't explain, it's like, you know Tejas, Gaurav, Akash, etc are crowd-pleasers. They try to hook you into their dance. But Rupsa captures attention without even trying. The way she enjoys every bit of dancing makes you give her your unwavered attention. Yk, my first introduction to Shweta and Rupsa was in the IBD Dhol Baaje act. I'd never seen them dance before. But let me tell you, I have watched that act umpteen times, still never could look at Shweta because Rupsaaaa 😆 Even when I tell myself okay let's focus on Shweta now, I have always ended up watching Rupsa 🤣 And I say this as a huge fan of Shweta. Even in that reel Momma shared earlier with Rupsa, Pari, Rutuja and all, Rupsa had my complete attention ☺️

Florina and Sanchit - Another odd pairing but the common thing between both of them are that they are UNIQUE. Florina is just simply - pure joy to watch. She's somewhat like Rupsa, but different. She isn't even looking for attention, she doesn't care who's looking, but she'll dance like it's her life. Never seen a kid freestyling so amazingly well. Geeta pretty much said all my thoughts in the auditions - she makes me stress-free. It's not like Florina is a great dancer, she has a lot of room for improvement. But when somebody does it with so much heart, you can't help but watch and admire Had missed her stress-free attitude during the initial weeks with TS this season. But now it's slowly coming back. As for Sanchit, exactly what Momma said. His legs are unbelievable. Unique in his own right. A style I've never seen before. Not the greatest dancer either, just like Flo, but his legs have a language of their own, and they speak beautifully

I agree what others said about Gaurav. I am not a huge fan of his style, but you can't deny that he is technically brilliant. Already said about Pratiti - she has a bright future ahead. Also wanted to add one more name - Masoom. A very very versatile dancer. I have never seen her attempt a style and not be good at it. Recently saw a video of her trying to attempt Vartika's style, and yeah, she was great 😆

Anyways, what have you put me through @ZeyDa I guess the answer is, there simply isn't THE BEST. That's a dangerous tag to put on anyone. Although, if I try to think of 'the best dancer I know' my mind screams only Aryan's name If there is a 'perfectionist' in the world of dance, it's him (of course this is according to my very limited knowledge of dancers 🤣) But yeah, never seen Aryan mess up, never seen him not ace a choreography, and apart from Tejas, he's the only person who can make me look away from Tushar when they're dancing together 😆

Haha you said it Felix, Aryan was unbeatable in dance plus interms of power and technique. Can’t believe he is the same little kid who came to DID little masters auditions, who said “Okay mummy” (something in those lines) 😂🤣 to Farah Khan just because he was soooo nervous. Indeed silent killer, as his crazy fans put it. He has come a long way.

100% Agree with what you said about Rupsa, she truly dances for herself and is growing up to be so graceful, even I was looking at her in that reel momma shared, she is such a relief to have, the fun that Bollywood style brings is not there in any other style, and she owns it and whatever other style she tries. I loved her in S3 along with Tejas and Gaurav. It actually went in phases, Rupsa, Tejas, Gaurav. Lol. These kids are truly amazing.
