Zee wooing Farah Khan to judge Little Masters

March 23, 2010 (Sampurn Wire):This summer, TV channels are burning the dance floor to boost their GRPs. The three major channels, Colors, Star Plus and Zee TV will soon launch a dance reality show each. Colors have come up with Chak boom boom, while Star Plus is coming up with the second season of Zara Nachke Dikha. Zee TV is continuing its Dance India Dance series with the introduction of DID Little Masters.

The channel has already roped in choreographer Sandip Soparrkar as mentor for the audition round. It's now widely buzzed that Zee is now contemplating to have ace choreographer and director Farah Khan as judge for Little Masters.

A source associated with the show says, "Sandip is currently lined up for the audition round. Since Colors have Saroj Khan (Chak boom boom), the channel wants an equally big name for Little Masters. Farah Khan is the first choice, and if things go smoothly, Farah, along with Sandip, will adjudicate Little Masters."

We tried contacting Farah Khan and even sent her a text but she didn't reply. Similarly, Zee TV head of non fiction Aashish Golwarkar too didn't reply to our message.

Guru, see this TB article that showed up today... It says Sandip will be joining the three mentors Remo, Terence and Geeta in LM...

Sandip Soparrkar joins as mentor on Little Masters..

March 23 2010 | 1:28pm

To add variety to the panel, the makers of Little Masters rope in another dance guru Sandip Soparrkar to be a part of the auditions'


Sandip Soparrkar who was actively involved in training some of the contestants for Zee's Dance India Dance is now a part of auditions for Little Masters.

According to our source, "Sandip Soparrkar, a renowned dancer will join the other three mentors Remo, Geeta and Terence. He will be a part of the auditions in all the cities."

The source adds, "Sandip rocketed to international fame, albeit for the wrong reasons, as he later put it, for allegedly dating Britney Spears. Later the dance instructor clarified that he is too much in love with Jesse Randhawa, a model and his dancing partner, to flit his eyes towards anyone else."

The source goes on, "Sandip specializes in Salsa, Latino, Rumba and Cha-cha-cha. He finds Bollywood dancing weird. However he accepts that the popularity of Bollywood Dance is far more."

When contacted Ashish Golwalkar, Non-Fiction Head, Zee TV, confirmed saying, "Yes, Sandip Soparrkar will be one of the mentors and he will be joining the other three mentors for auditions of little masters."

Sandip Soparrkar reverted our text message with - "Sorry,as of now I cannot make any comments about the show.Please talk to Zee authorities."

The last destination of audition is Delhi which is on 5th April. The Mumbai auditions which were recently held got an overwhelming response.

I think Sandip will only be joining them to judge the kids for the auditions rounds. That is, the Mega Auditions, alongside Terence, Geeta and Remo. And Jai, probably, Mayuresh, or Kruti, will be the mentors of the kids in places of Terence, Geeta and Remo.

Farah Khan is most probably sought after to replace Mithun Da.

This is my guess. Since they said Jai would be mentoring one of the gangs and they'll have four gangs in all. And they also said recently that DID mentors won't be the choreographers for little kids, but will only step in as judges. Don't know, just guessing though...

Yes, I also think Jai, and three other mentors will be working with the kids on LM show... They might have Terence, Remo, Geeta and Sandip as judges, so that the mentors dont do the judging!! That way the Master Judges can give proper comments for the kids and their mentors to improve and work on, while they move on with their projects outside DID... That would be a good format, imho... But I dont understand why they need a GM for kids?? If Farah comes in as GM, she will say Kya baat for everything that Geeta (her lucky charm) says!!

yea i read in one of the artilcle that they are coming up with a new format for the kids version, so lets see how the judges and mentors play out. Maybe they need Mithun for the Bengali version of the Dance India Dance on Zee Bangla, he was there in the previous seasons too I think.
