The show starts with Hussain and Sara coming on stage. Hussain says now a days elders bless children not by saying 'jeete raho' but rather by saying 'dancethe raho' 😆. They both introduce Shiamak and Rani, and the show is all set to begin.
Hussain says tomorrow, whichever team has the lowest points will be eliminated.
First Match: Eastern Tigers(ET) vs. Central Soormas (CS)
Solo Round
1) Bheem from ET performs first. AV is shown of how Bheem has struggled financialy and without family support to make it here. He is dressed as a cleaning lady in a green and pink sari and performs a cabaret number to the songs 'Aa Jaane Jaan' and 'Piya tu'. He uses a lot of props and has good energy. IMO there could have been better transitions between steps and better expressions, but otherwise good performance 👏 Hussain asks Pappu to blow whistle for Bheem and he does 😆. Hussain also tells Bheem to clean the floor and Bheem says the DPL floor should always shine 😆
2) Tejas from CS performs next. AV is shown of how Tejas gets blessings from his grandmother as his team has lost the past 2 matches. Tejas performs to the song 'Tanhaai' and does a contemporary piece where he plays a psychotic patient. Good performance but IMO the choreography was very common with nothing unique.
Comments: Rani says both were good today. Rani says cabaret is a difficult dance form and says Bheem managed to come to the mark. Rani admires Mini's concept.
Shiamak says Bheem's movements were not as loud and strong as Helen ji's. Shimak says Tejas did too much acting and not enough dancing, and also said his expressions were just OK.
Scores for ET:
All judges give 4, and Rani gives a 4 as well.
Scores for CS:
Howard and Pappu/Mallu give 4, Harshal/Vithal and Nagendra Swaroop give 6 😕. Rani gives 4 as well.
Duet Round
Vishay/Vinaisha are going against Prachi/Ankita. AV is shown of how they asked contestants from the other teams who they think will perform better today and 14 of them said Vishay/Vinaisha will do better while 6 said Prachi/Ankita will do better...
1) Vishay and Binaisha from ET perform first. They dance to the song 'Shabba Shabba Hai Raba' from the movie Daud. It's a contemporary piece but fast paced and they are dressed in blue shirts and pants with suspenders. They use a table as a prop and overall it was an enjoyable performance 👏
(Binaisha seems to have hurt her foot so Vishay carries her back)
2) Prachi and Ankita from CS perform next. They dance to the song 'More Piya' from the movie Devdas. They dance a traditional indian/bollywood piece and both have lots of energy with good expressions. The last part of their dance is with the lights off and their dresses glow in the dark and they use glow in the dark dandia's too. Overall the dance was good but IMO the coordination was off in a lot of places and Ankita was not suited for indian steps as her movements were not graceful enough. Prachi was excellent though and Mini's choreography was excellent as well 👏
Comments: Rani says Prachi and Ankita were magical on stage today and she complements Mini and asks her to choreograph a indian piece for one of her stage shows. Shiamak complements Prachi on how she dances in indian style 😊 Rani asks Shiamak that doesnt he agree that Ankita and Prachi are one of the finest dancers in DPL 😕.
Shiamak agrees but says they are one of the finest in Indian style choreography. Shiamak says Vishay and Binaisha are a good jodi but says Binaisha is a strong dancer so Vishay comes off as a little weak. But he says it was a good performance 😊
Scores for ET:
Harshal/Vithal give 6. All the rest give 4. Rani gives a 4, but also gives a +1 ikka as she loves their lifts.
Scores for CS:
All choreographers give a 6. Rani gives a hadippa 6 as well.
Final Score for today: Central Soorma's leading with 54 and Eastern Tigers are at 43.
Hussain asks ET how they feel being behind by 11 runs. Gaiti says they are not going to be disappointed as there is still another round, but she says if they do go out of the game, they have still enjoyed playing the matches. Good Spirit 👏

Second Match: Western Yodha's(WY) vs. Uttar ke Puttar(UP)
Duet Round
1) Kartik and Puneet from WY perform first. Their concept is based on the animosity between Pakistan and India and how they used to be united before and now how things have changed. Puneet is dressed Indian flag colors while Kartik is dressed as Pakistan colors. Choreography is contemporary based and they dance to the song 'Maula mere le le meri jaan'.
Comments: Rani complements her item boy Kartik and says his speciality is that he never lets her down. She also complements Puneet saying he is very gifted and she says she loves them both.
Shiamak says the dance and concept was superb but he wishes the costume was better. Shiamak also tells Kartik that he's too tight and his extension should have flow as Puneet's does and Shiamak tells Puneet he was fabulous today.
2) Dinesh and Harish from UP perform next. They are paying a tribute to Shiamak today. They dance to the songs 'Uski khusboo mein' and of course 'Mohabbat Karle Karle'. The choreography was good but IMO it could have been executed a liiiitle bit better by the 2 guys. Coordination went off in some places but other than that it was excellent 👏
Dinesh asks Shiamak to come on stage and dance and Shiamak comes and dances to both the songs with lots of energy. Excellent performance...nice to see Shiamak dance! 👏
Hussain asks both teams to come on stage and Hussain and Sara comment that it seems WY are missing Kartik from the team. Harshal Vithal say they dont know where he is and they call out to him and he comes out dressed like a Pundit in an oversized dhoti kurta and he bows down to Rani 😆. Kartik says he only bows down to 3 people...Devi Ma, his own mother, and the third is Rani 😆. Rani is laughing and Hussain asks Kartik what is in the lota he is carrying. Kartik says it has rashgulla and he says I like you to Rani in Bengali. Kartik goes and gives the lota to Rani who in turn feeds him a rasgulla and pulls his cheek. 😳
Comments: Rani says Dinesh has performed like a star today. She also says the coordination between Dinesh and Harish was good.
Scores for WY:
Nagendra Swaroop give 6, and all rest give 4. Rani gives a 4 plus +1 ikka for the concept.
Scores for UP:
Mini gives a 2😕 (IMO a 2 was very low) and all the rest give a 4. Rani gives 4 as well.
Solo Round
AV is shown of why its important for Prashant to win Man of the Series. They show Shiamak coming to see Kartik and Prashant's mom to pray for her. Very sweet of him. Prashant says his father has taken out a lot of money for their mothers operation so Prashant says dance is his only way of earning (😕) and he is trying to win Man of the Series.
1) Prashant from WY comes out bare chested with brown pants and a cap. He dances to the song 'Tere Layee'. It's a hip hop type piece and Prashant has lots of energy but IMO the moves were a bit repetitive.
2) Adi from UP performs next. He comes out dressed as Elvis Presley on a motercycle and the intro of the dance is an Elvis song and then transitions to the song 'Bar Bar Dekho, Hazaar baar dekho'. I have no idea how they could let him perform such a horrible piece in front of so many people. It was very short and over before it started and there was practically NO dancing. VERY shocking for me... 😲
Comments: Rani says Prashant is always good but says the magic was missing in his dance today and she requests him to bring back the usual Prashant who always gets a 6 from her. Rani says Adi is a fantastic dancer and she was expecting a dhamaka judging by his costume but she says the performance was not like that.
Shaimak says Rock n Roll is a very lovely style and he remembers Shammi Kapoor and he said he didnt like Adi's dance today. Shiamak says Prashant is one of the strongest dancers on WY and he says Prashant has good body and everything but says his performance was just OK and no strength in it.
Scores for WY:
All choreographers give a 4, and Rani gives a 4 as well.
Scores for UP:
Howard and Uma Gaiti give a 2. Mini gives a 4 (😕 I swear, this woman does not know how to judge) and Nagendra Swaroop give a 4 as well. Rani gives Adi a 2 (Thank goodness she's judging seriously now..)
Final Score for today: Western Yodha's leading with 43 and Uttar ke Puttar are at 32.
Hussain tells Pappu Mallu that it is important for them to win a match as then they will be at 6 points (In the total race) and it will make it easier for them, otherwise they may have to go against the weakest team. Hussain asks Pappu if maybe they have done a mistake, and Pappu says there has been no mistake and the group performance is still left...
___________________________________________________________________________________
Sara tells Hussain that everyone usually compliments her but he has not complimented her yet. 😆 She asks him to tell her how she is looking today. Hussain says 'Kaali Naagin...' and when Sara shockingly says 'What?!' he continues by looking at Rani and saying ' (Kaali Naagin) ki jaise zulfein teri kali kali.....' 😆 Rani calls Hussain to her and as he leaves the stage he tells Sara 'Kyon..Dekha!' 😆 So Rani tells Hussain that he will have to break his diet and she feeds him a rasgulla 😳
Last Match: Desi Pardesi (DP) vs. Southern Sizzlers (SS)
Solo Round
1) Priyanka from DP performs first. She dances to the song 'Dhum Tana' from Om Shanti Om. It is an indian style dance with a very modern/contemporary type mix to it as well. The performance was good and Priyanka had lots of energy. IMO there was not much diversity in the steps and more focus on acting and props. But I'd still say it was a good performance.
Sara tells Priyanka that the song Dhum Tana was choreographed by Farah Khan but she called Mini to help with the classical touch. Hussain asks Mini to come on stage and dance and she agrees and dances very wonderfully to the song.
2) Madan from SS performs next. He dances to the song 'Main Deewana'. He is portraying a robot toy in a store and the intro starts off with him in a box with a doll and he suddenly comes alive and starts dancing. Very cute performance and Madan was very good and had smooth moves. I wish the choreography would have had a little more to it but it was still good 👏
Comments: Rani tells Madan he was superb and she says she loved him today. She calls him to her and feeds him a rasgulla. 😳 Rani complements Nagendra and Swaroop and tells them they have lived up to the name she had given them (Super Duper Jodi). She says whats good about them is that they are not thinking of whether or not they will remain in DPL but are enjoying and thats why their dance today has shined out.
Shiamak says 'welcome back' to Southern Sizzlers. He says "Rasam Ki Kasam..jala diya tum!' 😃 Shiamak says Priyanka's performance was not bad but he says the indian mixed with classical did not match with the beats and he says her footwork was very weak. But he tells her to take it positively so she can improve.
Scores for DP:
Mini gives a 2, and rest of the 3 gave a 4. Rani gives a 2.
Scores for SS :
All choreographers give a 6. Rani gives a 6 as well 😃
Duet Round
1) Ruel and Praveen perform first. They dance to the song 'Main Hoon Don'. Excellent performance with excellent coordination. They used lots of props and used them very well. Good performance 👏
*In the middle of the dance Ruel bumped into Praveen and he put up his hands and said sorry when Praveen glared at him 😆. Shiamak says that was the cutest thing. Hussain then tells everyone that Ruel is Sindhi, even though he doesnt look like that from any angle 😆 Hussain says something to Ruel in Sindhi and Ruel tells Rani 'You are looking hot today...very beautiful' 😆 Hussain says that was not what he said to Ruel in Sindhi, and what he really said to Ruel was 'There are a lot of girls crazy about you, but you're only after Rani' 😆
2) Nanda and Kishan from SS perform next. They dance to the song 'Bharat Humko Jaan se Pyaar Hai' and 'Vande Matarm'. It is a contemporary piece based on fighting for our country. Good performance. The cooridination was excellent in some places and a little bit off in others. Well executed though 👏
Comments: Rani says Praveen and Ruel were very good today and liked all the different parts in the choreography. Overall she thought it was very entertaining. Rani admires the SS concept and she said Kishan shined out today.
Shiamak says normally he would look at Praveen but today Ruel was like an atomic bomb. Shiamak tells SS that they have excellent dancers and Nanda is always good but today Kishan was outstanding. He calls both Kishan and Ruel to him and gives both the little atom bombs a hug. 😳
Scores for DP:
Harshal/Vithal give 6. All the rest give 4. Rani gives a 4 as well.
Scores for SS:
All choreographers give a 4. Rani gives a 4 as well.
Final Score for today: Southern Sizzlers leading with 50 and Desi Pardesi are at 40.

Precap for tomorrow: Rani dancing to Shava Shava with Hussain and Sara and her also walking out of the show because she does not want to see a team eliminated 😕
