I have nothing against the show nor any actors, i love the show a lot.

But i find this whole gender war really lame srry to say, be it for fun or anything. Recently i read an article of Harshad Chopra, where he gave a reason why he didnt take up ZND. He said that he doesn't believe in this kind of gender based wars. When i read it, i looked at his comment in a different way, i thought he doesn't want to look like a sexist or anything. But now i really understood what he meant.

I mean look at this...so far on ZND how many times have we heard the judges say "its a really big thing for a girl,"..."as a girl its very commendable" & so on? It's so visible that the girls team r getting that "soft corner" cuz they r girls! I mean if they try same difficulty level as the boys, it wud be a WOW for the girl but a "obvious, ok" thing for the boy. I am a girl myself & i m really proud of what the girls r doing. But if everybody knows guys have their own weaknesses & girls have their own weakness, why put them together to compete who's "better"? Like the fire part of today's epi...arshad's like he expected MORE from the boys...what did he want them to jump into fire or sumthing?😳

I can BET this season the girls r going to win, i might be wrong but the way i m looking at this thing, i m pretty sure the girls r going to win. And also i dnt think anybody wud find it appropriate if a girl goes on her knees at the end of this season n says to the boy ur better.

I know this show is for fun...but i just find the whole gender based war very unfair.

I agree with you Shonaa its truly difficult to say whose the best...girls cant b expected to do daredevil acts like what Siddesh has done .......it probably wud have been good if they teamed up the pairs into groups....

yes they r equal.....they may not have the strength in teh same things, but they both have their own weakness n strength...so making them complete is not fair...even for fun its not fair..

even if they r competing, judge them equally atleast...otherwise forget bout it

& the girls have their father, brothers, boyfrndz too and they r all BOYS while the guyus have their mother, sister, daughter, wife, grilfrndz too who r girls! :S

I think you are right to some extend. The guys seem to have a tougher time when it comes to judgement this week, and it doesn't seem fair. but it is because the judges want more power from them in performances and more grace when it comes to girls....but god made girls and guy differently...so that expectation is not wrong...guys have more physical strength and girls have more grace in their bodies....but the best part in my opinion is that both can come to the other's playing field.....get training in that...and be even better than them.

lets say a guy does really good ballet and the girl not so much...then it shows that guys can be graceful as well. its a matter of each can compete on the others strengths. I for one like that concept.

and think....how far we have come that we can laugh at gender roles and have a fun competition about it. in our grand parents time....girls would have been laughed at if they tried to compete with boys....now because we know that each gender can be equal to the other...we can come out to prove it.

Sorry for the long post...just what i felt.

Gosh I also find all dis dis lame 🤣 I never was interested in dis show if additi kks angad nd sushant werent dere... Forgetting about difficult levels nd stunts i find dis concept idiotic lols...I mean how d hell on earth by winning a dance competition u can prove out to d whole world dat gals/boys r d best... šŸ˜†
Talking about stunts i m also feeling bad for boys... Judges r expecting so much out of dem for gods sake treat boys nd gals equally.... No doubt boys r physically strong but dat doesnt mean u expect dem to perform dose dare devil stunts more dan d gals do... Why have a soft corner for gals... dese ppl have themselves chosen dis platform judge dem equally... Why being biased....lols..dey shuld be given stunts having d same difficulty level u kno mediocre types... Atleast dis way judging can be done in a better way.. Coneon if boys will do more difficult stepsden also dey will be told off u shuld have done sumthing more...its all child's play for boys....lols...nd wen gals wil do even a chindi sa stunt scene everyone will stand up nd give standing ovation nd all... Just for d damn reason dat dey r gals gosh gals can do a lot of things dey appreciate dem even for a chindi sa stunt scene as if we have climbed mount everest instead dey shuld be asked to do more...I personally belive gals r underestimated in dese places.... We gals can also do much more....Kkk here i m not saying yesterday's fire performance was chindi dont take me wrong lols...

Haha for equality's sake dey will bring out a round where a gal wuld be asked to dress lyk a boy nd a boys dressed lyk gals... Dance shows me hamesha ye hota hai🤣 kkk i m not liking dis ZND thingy its pretty boring nd lame 🄱

I would repeat again..this is a highly juvenile concept..in any profession you are competing with everyone irrespective of the fact its a boy or girl...coming to the context of yer post I agree if you hear the judges from this or last season they have that tone of empathy for the girls..and that as a girl I feel is very insulting..why cant you be judged on the same level if thats what it takes..given that the girl's fire act was very well presented and beautiful the guy's one was no less in terms of difficulty..n in that situation mental strength plays as big a factor as physical tenacity...what according to me gave the edge to the guys performance was their synchronization...they had it exact from the point go..which vaibhavi mentioned..

well last time it was utter BS in name of judgment and leading to drama of the boys walking out..i was surprised after such a pathetic end in the last season the channel decided to come back with this.... 🤣 right now I can only say vaibhav is being fair in terms of technicality..n even I can bet the girls will win this one too...n not just due to their awesome performance..coz I still havent seen one in the last 2 epis..pretty mundane stuff

I can understand your point ..... but frankly, i got irritated on behalf of the girls ......... why is it that the judges feel so surprised when the girls do something great ........ A performance should be a simple "wow" ..... not "wow, this is great for a girl"
........ especially when arshad said "if girls could do this, then you should have done something better " ......... that was lame ...... its like saying - we think that the girls can't handle this heavy duty stuff, they are a weak group , so how come you couldn't even match up with them ....
This gender wars is just lame ..... and we are soon going to see gisa-pita nok-jhok like "you girls are just good at makeup, khaana banana, safai karna etc etc " .......... oh wait , didn't Aamir already say that
.......... lame concept ...... group pairing would have been better ......

@bips...oh yeah this show would just further sexist jokes which are utterly inappropriate and unacceptable in the name of gender war....r u kidding...which century are we in... 🤣 where the guys have to hear if she could do it...you could do more 🤣 arshad just fell from grace for me today... 🤣 at that point i felt bad for all 4 of them-hazel mukti sidhesh and akshat..that statement demeaned all 4 of their efforts- directly or indirectly...

Moral of the story..its yer perception and outlook that makes you inferior... not yer gender..and he proved it
