IMO, this is one of the best shows on TV. I pay for a lot of Indian channels - this one is most definitely, paisa vasool.
The dancers are *very* good; the choreographers are the best that India could offer. Some really fine performances over the weeks that you could easily categorize as being world-class.
That said, I am just not understanding the choice of songs for the dances that they perform. Inhi Logo ne and Jazz? Jumma Chumma de de and Kathakali? Kaali Kaali Aanke and Tango? The songs and dances are just not gelling. Sometimes, some of the beats in the songs are overwhelming the dance moves. Sometimes, some of the dance moves (acrobats to be precise) are overwhelming the songs. The end result is jarring! They are getting it right, very few times, in terms of associating the right music to the type of dance.
I hope they do a better job of selecting the music next time onwards.
Two thumbs-up for the show.

Good insight! It's an interesitng point! I'm not all that good with music so I'm not sure I can see/hear what you mean but I understand what you are trying to get at.

I think the aaii pappi bharatanatiyam perforamnce was amusing :)
I actually loved the tango performance too :-D

I have a totally different opinion. According to me, this week's episode was good MAINLY because of the song selection and the refreshing dance forms. i mean it's something deifferent from the usual stuff and it's nice and entertaining to see that. It would be so boring if the songs were similar to the dance forms, well, according to me coz that's what we have seen in ALL the dance shows. DID is soing something different, which is making it unique, so I am actually looking forward to more episodes like the one this saturday :)
maybe they can have a theme of black & white movie songs, hmm, that'll be interesting, like Jai performed on a B&W song this Friday and it was very well done, so more things like that would actually be interesting.

Infact I loved the songs and dance embody each other. I simple loved Alsiha and Mayuresh's performance and also Vrushali and Jai. I think it was a smart act. Oh how cud I forget Siddhesh and Sunita rocked that day.
