Nach Baliye losers not quite bitter
While we were thinking Manish Goyal and wife Poonam Narula would be all sob-sob after losing out on the Nach Baliye trophy, that doesn't quite seem the case. Well, the duo at least appear pretty cool about the loss at the grand finale, and are in fact all praises for Sachin-Supriya.
Manish, who (like almost all TV stars) aspires to make a career in films, says many more avenues have opened up for him post-Nach Baliye. He says, "People no longer refer to me by the names of characters that I play on TV. So in that sense, I have established my true identity with this show and it feels wonderful."
Wife Poonam dittoes her hubby, "Whatever said and done, I feel like a winner. For me, a good performance is equivalent to victory. It finally boiled down to the audience-poll and if they did not choose us, it does not mean we were bad. We were capable, and it showed in our dance performance." No sour grapes here, eh? Unless the frustration is all pent-up.
