Since a lot of people compain the forum is not much active, i thought of starting this performance analysis, where people can post what they think of the performances.Hopefully me
or someone else will continue this in the next few weeks and we can have some healthy discussion or topics on this forum as well.
So,at first lets discuss the performances . up in the beginning was the top 3 performaces. As expected, all three did something with theme patriotism . First up was soumita, who did ( acc
to what shown on VT) a bharatnatyam kalari mixed on the song arambh hain prachanda,high as usual on emotional quotient, but the dance was average, expressions average too. For some reason, i
am not being able to connect with soumita right from the beginning and i think she needs to buck up. I was surprised to see the judges were all praise of a performance, which was at the best average.
And no i didnt see any bharatnatyam in her dance.
Then was irfan's turn. irfan did on a medly of songs ,theme indian soldiers and i assume the dance form was freestyle, since it had more of storytelling, and lyrical than actual dance. It was quite heartfelt and
bit different from usual irfan style.However not much impressed either and agreed with the judges.
Finally it was rajit. Rajits performance was truly the best of the lot. he was clean, preice, his movements were clean,with finess, nice balance of emotion and its physical expression.
the beautiful synchronisation with the background dancers made it even better.
*** God forbid, no one has to go through what irfan had too, it was really touching to hear him. It reminded me of the stories my parents and grandparents told me, and i thank God, i never had to experience
any of it on my own.*****
The performance for the elimination
Ankan once again was unbelievable. the mistakes he did yesterday, he more than made up for it today. it is highly possible we have an actor in making.It is always nice to see the risks this child takes, even if it
doesnt pay off once a while, i cannot remember seeing same genre, style of dance in this guy, and he probably is the only one in the competition so far who has tried as many things as possible within this short
span, i wonder who his choreographer is.
kruti did something up her alley, jazz. technically it was flawless and beutiful but i think she lacks the sass to carry of broadway jazz. She looks better doing ballet and contemporary.
But it was a technically good performance.
hitesh's performance was a good one, but unfortunately it was weaker compared to ankan and kruti. also, hitesh is the weakest among the three bottom three dancers. I thought his elimination was quite justified.
As usual, Hritik gave him a check too. call me cynic, but it looks like the whole giving eliminated contestant a cheque is some just dance philosophy and its just happening through the hands of HR. it is a little difficult to believe
bollywood actors dish out cheques of 3 lakh rupees( again same amount for everyone) for each eliminated contestants every week.
My complaint: people watching such shows are dance enthusiasts although our knowledge is not vast, it would be helpful if the dance styles are identified. since it is not Nach baliye or zara nachke dikha, which involves celebrities
gracing us poor viewers with their moves,but rather a competiton with professional and or trained dancers, thats the least they can do. Even celebrity dance shows like jhalak shows the dance form used, it becomes easier to judge the dance
and the dancers if the form in known. seems, the makers almost willingly wants to keep the viewers in a bit of dark,so that we accept everything and anything the judges say.
My second complaint: it is known some of the chorepgraphers and we can catch glimpses of rahul shetty and harshal vithal ,karishma(of dpl fame) deepak and javed at times, but it would be nice if they decide to dedicate one background epi for the choreographers,
and show how exactly are they training, like for example, one choreo per contestant or they r rotated, coz some good dancers might loose out coz of not so good chorepgraphers with not so good ideas.
