it was something new brought to the stage, and it was fulfilled amazingly. i loved it!

+ Rajeev is too nice. He should be a little critical of the screw ups that happen in Geeta's team
Rajeev catches everything, which is good.

+ Jai should pronounce Vivek with a V and not as Wiwek
it really doesnt matter.

Right on abt Geeta Maa...She is bias to the max and at times not objective..enough said

Sweetu it does matter how Jay pronounces V VS W..or vice versa
This problem is with many indians not only in India but NRI too..I am so tired of my name being pronouced as Warsha instead of Versha (Varsha)
He also needs to pronounce Grand Master properly with proper R and not make it silent R..

😆totally second ya on the this part...!!

and to bring things more in perspective, cornalli's performance was a take off from the dance in the movie - Step Up 3D, the one moose and camille perform on the street!! nothing against the dancers cuz it takes skills to execute this. but considering the level of the show, u'd atleast expect the choreography to be original..its kinds sad to see imitation!!😔

I agree too!

I don't like Geeta's choice of songs for traditional or classical dance forms. Jalwa song for Chhau dance wasn't just working for me. She did the same thing when Siddesh did kathak. I don't know why Geeta feels so insecure to do classical numbers on classical songs. It will surely enhance the performance and public will appreciate it. We should be proud of our traditional art forms and present them without any hesitations and Geeta should really step up as that is her forte. Oh well😕



If you do no have faith in your art, you are not an artist.

I don't know why she is hesitant in showing pure classical numbers. Is it because:
1. she doesn't really have this expertise?
2. she feels that none of her contestants are capable of doing pure classical with a classical song?
3. she feels that her form of dancing is not going to be entertaining for the audience and so that is why she has to put in these peppy numbers?

My name is pronounced wrong by both Indians and non-Indians! So I have no problems with Jay's pronunciation.. But agree with the rest... I liked CS dance though, but didnt think anything out of the world about it..

The irony is that when Geeta did the choreography for AF and Rajeev did for SV, both of them made to the top two in votes that week!! Whereas both KC and PV who were put to dance for Marzi's choreography ended in bottom two!! So I dont know what to make out of Marzi's work!!

I agree with her song selections.. Though Sid's Kathak dance was okay, since it requires all the fast beats to match the footwork.. In fact her songs for DID1 were much better IMO.. In DID2 though, she made many mistakes - using the fast beat silly song for Manipuri was the worst of all... Jalwa song for Chaau wasnt good either... But she was doing better with songs this season when compared to DID2 season... I dont mind Hindi songs being used for classical and folk dance forms, as long as the composition and/or lyrics do justice to the dance form..
