Girl power on Jhalak

Jhalak Dikhla Jaa's third season will have an all female judging panel with Juhi Chawla, Vaibhavi Merchant and Saroj Khan set to grill the contestants. This time, the show will feature 12 celebrities battling it out to be top dancer.

If sources are to be believed, Sanjay Leela Bhansali will not be able to judge this season of Jhalak. A source from production says, "For the first time, the show will have three female judges. They are Juhi Chawla, Vaibhavi Merchant and Saroj Khan. The show will be hosted by Shweta Tiwari and Tamil actor Shiv Pandit. This is the first time that Saroj-ji and Vaibhavi will appear on a show together."
As for the contestants, Prem Chopra is said to have dropped out of the show. The source says, "Since Prem Chopra injured himself a few weeks ago he will now be replaced by another actor. There was talk of Benjamin Gilani being that replacement but nothing is confirmed as yet."

The official launch of the show will take place this week. Some well known names participating are Parul Chauhan, Monica Bedi, Hard Kaur and Ram Kapoor.

The first season of Jhalak was judged by Farah Khan, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Shilpa Shetty. Jhalak's second season was judged by Shaimak Dawar, Jetendra and Urmila Matondkar.

  • Get ready to dance with the stars from February 27

    Jhalak is back in its third season filled with new faces and new judges. 12 participants, all from different fields, are set to rock the dance floor in order to impress the three mahajudges. The show starts on February 27.

    Jhalak 3 will be hosted by Shweta Tiwari and Shiv Pandit with an all-woman judging panel consisting of Bollywood actress Juhi Chawla, dance guru Saroj Khan and choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant.

    And that's not all, only 11 out of the 12 participants have been revealed, which means there's going to be a surprise for audiences who tune in on the 27th when they reveal the twelfth contestant. The other eleven are:

    Ram Kapoor with Marischa Fernandes:
    Better known as Jai Walia (Kasamh Se) from the small screen, this actor is presently one of the best on television. He has also starred in shows like Ghar Ek Mandir with wife Gautami and has garnered many awards.

    Parul Chauhan with Deepak Singh:
    The girl from Lucknow is now a familiar face with audiences because of her role as 'Ragini' (Bidaai). From having a proper traditional look to a glamorous one, Parul will now try her best to shake a leg.

    Karan Singh Grover with Nicole Alvaris:
    This Delhi lad, who is well known as Dr. Armaan and has a huge female fan following, is now set to impress his fans with his overwhelming dance performances.

    Gauhar Khan with Hanif Halal: The gorgeous and vivacious supermodel is always up for trying something new. Gauhar will be seen for the first time on the small screen.

    Mohinder Amarnath with Lilian Mendes: This legendary cricketer, who is well known for his spirit on field, will try his luck from the cricket field to the dance floor with Jhalak.

    Ugesh Sarcar with Tina Sachdev: The young boy from Bangalore is a talented magician by profession. Let's see if he can work his magic on the dance floor on Jhalak.

    Anand Raj Anand with Rozita Rajput:
    He is a multitalented music director, who writes lyrics, composes and sings. His passion for music has drove him to this competition and he can finally dance to his own tunes.

    Hard Kaur with Savio Barnes:
    Taran Kaur Dhillon, a popular Punjabi Indian rapper, is famous for her Bollywood number Glassy. Since then, the journey has been wonderful for the singer who will now compete with other contestants for the best moves.

    Shilpa Shukla with Nishant Bhat: Chak De's arrogant Bindiya is all set to make her entry into television through this show. She has done many movies like Khamosh Pani and Hazaron Khwaishein Aisi but it was Chak De that brought her immense fame.

    Monica Bedi with Javed Sanadi: From the grand house straight to the dance floor, Bedi surely has places to go. The lady started her career with movies and then entered Bigg Boss house. She recently launched a spiritual album and is now putting her hands into the world of dance.

    Bhagyashree with Toby Fernandes: Suman of 'Maine Pyaar Kiya' surely couldn't make big at the silver screen. But after returning with a Bollywood movie 'Humko Deewana Kar gaye', the actress just moved on. While she has made her small-screen debut, this is her first time on a reality show.

    Watch Jhalak Dikhlaa Jaa on Sony Entertainment Television on Friday, February 27, at 9pm.
