I love the concept of this dance competition, but I feel the diversity is missing this year.. matlab last year we had the kathak jodi, V-company and lots more..

This year there is one semi classical dancer and the rest is all the same (Western).

My point is, it's a show in India and all we see are Western dances, popping, locking, hip hop, ghetto, urban etc..

I was born and raised in the west of Europe and Indian dances, be it classical or just folk is loved around the world and in Europe. That's what so fascinating about India, the diversity of all those dances..

Where is the folk madness, the bharat natyam, the kathak, odissi in Dance +?

Every dance show in India is the same these days, be it Jhalak, Dance + or SYTYCD to name a few.. all western. What's the difference between SYTYCD India and USA, or Jhalak and Dancing with the stars?

What's up with all the Western dancing? 😕

Remo is really good at Indian and Western dancing, so i really don't understand why he did it different this year 😭

I too wish there were more classical dancers :( but I think Dance plus is the best show out of all the dance shows aired in India quality-wise...

True. No unnecessary drama and pure dancing. That's what I love about this show.

yes less drama is necessary but wish they keep equal amount of classical dancers alongside those who perform western dancing

Yes they should have chosen contestants performing Indian dance styles too...People love to see varieties of dance styles..But now majority of the contestants are performing western..
