I kept telling myself, not to watch this week's ZND, because i knew what was going to come. I knew Additi was eliminated, and I also knew, i just did not want to see it...but after I came here and read a few comments, i decided to watch it, to make myself tougher. So i Youtubed, found Additis Performance and watched it. Then I cried.
Additi, was actually fabulous. I think even with the choreography being weak, Additi aced the performance. Her moves were so clean, that I actually couldnt believe while watching the performance that the judges wouldnt raise flags for SUCH a good performance from SOMEONE THEY KNOW is a NON DANCER. I felt I respect Shilpa A little more now, not because she gave Additi a flag, no because she said that she appreciated the "hardwork" Additi put in. Arshad Warsi and Vaibhavi Merchant, I dont want to comment. Just one thing, I didnt expect this from them. I felt that the comments were mismatched. I mean Arshad Warsi said, he wanted to see a Flawless performance, what I want to ask him is , Shouldn't he wish for a flawless performance from someone HE KNOWS is a perfect dancer, like Mukti, Sanjeeda, Rakhi? I mean I felt his and Vaibhavi's comments were supposed to be this last week when Mukti performed. No dont get me wrong, I love Mukti, she s an angel, but she s also a superb dancer, so IF arshad had said this to mukti Last week, i wouldnt be suprised, because i would understand that Mukti is an AWESOME dancer, and that everytime she dances she raises the bar for herself...BUT asking Additi to perform a flawless act, was absolutely out of the blue. I mean, what did he think, Additi was a dancer who had hidden her "talent" only to be showcased when she's in Baazigar round? I mean, I didnot even understand what Vaibhavi and Arshad said. It felt like, they were just trying to get rid of Additi. It felt like, they just needed to eliminate someone, and additi was the first one that came to mind. I m so sorry, but I dont think i can EVER repect Vaibhavi the way I used to. I have loved her since Nach Baliye days. I loved how she always credited Aamir, even though he was a non dancer initially..I felt that, she always looked at the hardwork a person put in, not how many flaws there were in a performance...I am just so disappointed.
I love Sushant. I love him for coming out and saying that Additi worked hard. I love Sangeeta for running to the stage to hug Additi...Most of all, I love Akshat, for wiping Additi's tears when she's hugging sushant. I m sorry, but I expected Kritika to be the first to run off to Additi after the results, but I was disappointed again.
Mukti, you are agood human being. If I were there in the audience, I 'd have really given you a standing ovation for having the guts to ask for a second chance for someone else. It broke my heart to see Additi trying to take the microphone away from Mukti when she was sayin, "Give her a second Chance, she s a non dancer." SO mukti, for me, you were the hero today.
ANd Rashmi, for smashiing that microphone. Thank you.
I dont know why, but I respect the guys who stood up when Additi was leaving, I was thoroughly shocked when Aamir didn not say or do anything. I had thought he would have said a small word or two to Additi that she as leaving. FOr the first Time, I m sad that another illusion broke, of Aamir being my hero. He didnot act like one. I m sorry to his fans, i dont want to hurt you guys, I just feel he should have said something.
Now to AG, Your the best and you know that. Keep you head high, and know that we love you and are proud of you today. Because today you showed that under no circumstances will you let go of the self respect you hold for yourself. and one more thing, THANK YOU ADDITI, for not hugging the judges when you left.
NOw that I m thinking, I think shilpa just gave up the flag just to make sure ke Additi doesnt feel bad ke none of the flags were not raised for her. But nonetheles, ZND is over, for me Atleast.
I love you Sushant, but I cant bring myself to watch your performance. Because I know, how unfair this show is.
For all the people who will continue to watch this, Good Luck. Dont tell me whats happening, I m not interested.
With lots of tears,
Mahrukh
