With all due respect, I diagree with your comments. It is not about Ripu-Shivangi, they seem to be great dancers but about how you justify that they are the real stars. To me, most of them in the show are ...

First, I am not sure if either Ripu or Shivangi have been completely non-dancers before. Shivangi , the better dancer of the two doesn't seem to me to be new to dancing. Specially given their first dance (with scoring) to me seems to be the best performance till date. If I am wrong and if she has only picked up dancing recently, I would definitely say that she is amazing.
Secondly, every profession is like any other. I know that there are so many actors who hate dancing and are not good at dancing. Just because someone is an actor and faced the camera before doesn' make them defacto , a good dancer.
And last, I do not know the other couples a lot but as I have been a fan of Ashvik for almost two years, I can say that Asha has picked up dancing only last year and that too on award shows and we have seen her gradually from being a non-dancer to a graceful one but not a great one. And on the hard-working side, Ashvik (and maybe few other jodis) do a lot of stuff apart from NB and are extremely hard working. They act in daily soaps which even has shoots over the weekends, Rithvik does host another weekly show (and ZRA in between ), Asha was in one-day trip to Malaysia for a photo-shoot this week. I live nearby Malaysia and I know how tiring is it to travel overnight between India and Malaysia and be back in a day's time. In spite of all this, they try to bring something new to their audience every week and take lot of personal risks in doing so. Hopefully if the rumours are true, they will quit their show soon and will be able to devote the same time to dancing like the other couples do and then you can see the real competition.
Again, I am not putting down any jodi, think they are all doing their best given the circumstances and are real stars. My POV.



I agree with you about Shivangi not being new to dancing. From what i remember i read an article, before all the couples were finalised that Ripu was entering with his girlfriend who is a dancer. And she also seems very confident in doing bold dance steps. So for a new dancer altogether this is surprising, to me atleast.

You are of course entitled to your POV. Based on what little I know of Ripu-Shivangi, I felt that they were the complete outsiders here and hence it was a bigger leap for them to go from nowhere to dancing that well. I am not maligning any of the other jodis...I am sure all of them are very hard-working and balancing multiple workloads. You mentioned Rithvik and Asha for example. Similarly, people like Omar runs a spa (or so I have heard), Debina acts in some other serial, Raju and Kiku and their wives have young children and their needs to look after...it really isn't easy for anybody in the show. But my comments were not about who's juggling how much work and delivering well...it was entirely about who I feel has shown the biggest achievement and growth. And I do believe that people who face the camera as their day job, have taken part in dance shows etc do have an advantage (which I am not complaining about at all)...I might pick up dancing easily but knowing that a million viewers are watching my every move will disconcert me since I am not used to it. For this same reason, I felt the way I did about Ripu and Shivangi. Btw - I am a completely unbiased viewer and didn't even know who Ripu was before watching this show, so I would not call myself a fan defending him etc 😃
