DID lil Masters May 26,12 Pg 6 - Page 5

No Rimsha was safe. Kaamya and Tanay both on standby were sort of eliminated. But they will contest in the wild card as before. They get to perform coz of the selected kids get alleged chicken pox.

Today is the group performance day and out of all the performances I like the ones which was awarded the best performance award. It is the first time me and the judges on the same wavelength.

I was surprised to see the performance of Deep. He looks so small but he did a takar ka performance with Faisal. Choreography was right Deep and Faisal were very well performed. The co-ordination were on the bang. There were so many moves they did well and I liked it. Now for a change I like Faisal to do something different like contemporary or salsa. I have seen his little Bollywood already.

The second one is of Somya and Susanket's contemporary which I liked. They did really great. Somya was very good and I think she will go very far. Susanket was a good partner for Somya.

The other group dance were good but does not leave any lasting impression. I dont blame the kids but their skippers. Their choreogrphy was not upto the par. Geetaji has rightly pointed out that.

I have full confidence in all the kids, if they get any difficult choreography they will pull through it. Skippers please work hard. Look at the standby Dhurivita she got only two days and she pulled through the mujra dance equally great with the other partner.

Rohan with the clown act with his partner was good but he can do better so is Shivam. Om is such a cutie I dont want him to go. I dont even want Shivam to go either. I dont know who are the other two.

All the kids are great. I just want them to perform for 8 weeks and then on the basis of all 8 performances whoever gives the best performances be selected and voted and declared winner, first runner-up and second runner-up etc in the finale. I dont like kids leaving crying etc every week. .

Please give your input and promote whoever you think is the best dancer. Also what do you think about todays show. Thanks

Faisal & deep were amazing..didn't seem like I was watching children but more like experienced dancers.

Saumya & susanket were graceful..an eye pleasing performance..

Neeravs teams performance had a good concept and was entertaining but it was very messy..they're movements we're not clean at all..

Rohan & yash were good but it's not a performance that will be remembered for long..

Krutis team was so-so but the concept was good..

In shreya & dhruvitas performance. I was suprised by dhruvita..she is not a classical dancer and she managed to perform really well after just two days of practice..amazing.

I'm really looking forward to today's epi..wondering who will be eliminated.all the children are SO good..geeta & marzi really have tough job.

My favorite this time was Deep and Faisal's robotic dance. I KNEW Deep would shine sooner than later! I agree with a previous post, I would love to see Faisal do something more contemporary. I would hate to see him fall under Ruturaj's stereotype of only dancing bollywood and hip-hop and not much else.

Susanket and Soumya were very cute, very pleasant. I loved the concept.

Yash and Rohan, strong dancers, cute act.

Other 2 ladies, very very good job on the classical dance.

As for the group dances, I know they weren't the best but I think it also has to do with the fact that they were forced to make it a group dance. It seems more difficult to be creative and synchronized with more people. I know in the previous Little Masters season, if a group only had 3 members left, one dancer would have to dance twice. I don't know why they didn't do that again this season when it seemed to work very well last time. I thought Uday was particularly good in the Kruti dance, he kept such an amazingly intense expression and body language the entire time. He lead their group very well. In fact, even though there was not much "dance" in that one, I thought it was pretty solid. She did very well with the 3 dancers despite the fact that they were 3 different body sizes and dance experience levels.

I am also nervous about tomorrow's eliminations as all these kids are SOO incredibly good! From the sneak peak it seems like Shivam and Om are two out of four contestants who will be in the trial zone. My prediction is that Shivam will stay since he is such a strong dancer but cute little Om just might go =/ As cute as he is and as amazingly flexible as he is, I honestly haven't seen much dancing from him yet. He is sooo young compared to all of the other contestants in both age and dancing experience I'm not sure how he will do against the other 3 trial zone contestants, but I hope for the best for him and we shall see what happens. Who knows, he may surprise us.

Lastly, is anyone else bothered by all these "illnesses"??? What is that now, 3 contestants who have gotten sick?!??!! Something doesn't seem right.
