This episode was quite disappointing in terms of performances. At this stage of the competition, the performances should all be top tier. It seemed like all the performances deteriorated for all contestants. Only worthy performances were from Atul, Vaishnavi and Jeetu, IMO.
Atul (9.5) --> Beautiful performance! His lines were clean and he is just so graceful! Jai definitely brought out the contemporary from Atul. Really enjoyed this performance!
Vaishnavi (9.25) --> I really enjoyed her performance. This was Bollywood Jazz so it had a flavor twist of both and Vaishnavi is just such a beautiful dancer. I have yet to see an average performance from her.
Jeetu (9.25) --> I thought he was awesome. This boy is surprising me week after week with his performances. He went from one of the weaker contestants to one of my strongest for me.
Ruturaj (8.5) --> It wasn't a bad performance at all but it wasn't as good as Ruturaj can do. Rutu is a very good dancer and I know he can do better. However, I thought his execution was good, just a little sloppy in the stunts portions, otherwise it was very dramatic in a great way. I do feel that Dharmesh is not using Rutu to his fullest capabilities and he needs to do that in the coming weeks because the other contestants are getting stronger and stronger.
Vatsal (7.5) --> This boy is such a great dancer but this was a pretty weak act. Amrita is such a good dancer and she is capable of much more than this. It could've been better if Vatsal executed perfectly, but he didn't so it brought down the performance. Some portions were nice, but the knee spins were disappointing.
Papiya (7.0) --> Yikes, not what I expected from her. I felt her execution was sloppy and i completely agree with Geeta and Farahma about how she seemed heavy footed. There were no breaks in her movements which is why it seemed like there was no flow. I loved the cartwheel into split though, but i prefer her other hiphop performance much over this one. Also, agreed with Farah about too much expressions. Yes, you need expressions in bollywood/hiphop performances, but they need to be in control.
Avneet (6.75) --> She is just so cute! Anyway, this was a boring performance for me. The moves were simple, the execution was sloppy but of course her expressions were beautiful as usual. I thought her elimination was appropriate, although I will miss seeing her cute face. =/
Manoj (5.0) --> Sighh I feel so bad for Manoj. What was Mayu/Vrush thinking?!??? This was a horrible performance and it was just so boring and made no sense to me. Even if Manoj performed it to perfection, it would do no justice. You can tell the poor boy wasn't even enjoying it himself. Very weak and disappointing act from Mayu/Vrush.
Overall.. it was a disappointing episode. I think the best performance of the day was the one with Geeta and the kids on Aaja Nachle. 👏 That was the huge saving grace =) along with Atul, Vaishnavi and Jeetu and of course it was awesome to see Vrushali dancing because she is just so graceful!
