i completely agree with th TM and the theory of redundancy. i have my unique take on this. i was always mesmerisd by isha's talent and their flawless performances. but, now thy hav reachd such a top stage in ths show tht audience started xpecting much more frm thm. its jus like being th class toppers in a school. teachers n fellow students always xpect smthng more frm them. whereas if any average student performs better once or twice, thy r appreciatd but cannot b put in th same league of toppers.
i too started feeling frm ths satrday tht thy ver getting monotonous. but whn i watched those acts again i noticed tht th steps ver not repetitive but th look n costumes were. you see, for an average indian audience who is used to bollywood/ indian dances where xpressions r primary , all th western dances look th same aftr a point of time. for me, i cant differentiate much b/n tango & salsa or infact, b/n waltz & ballroom. but i can see tht thy r perfect and flawless in watever thy do. so th marks r compltly justified.
the other contestants also never attemptd anythng so drastically differnt in reality. but thy change th look and costimes of th performance so much tht it appears differnt.
for instance, gurmmet performed kathakali. his costume n make up gave a whole different look to th act but th kathakali steps ver very basic and not so impressive. but th performance felt different .
same with rashmi's yakshagana. the costumes and the look gave a feeling of versatality but th steps ver so basic tht any amateur can do.
Evn isha's critics liked th horror act th most. why? bcoz her look and costume in tht act was compltly differnt and never repeatd again. but in realty, that was th performance where she used flexing skills to th maximum and did not dance in particular.
