back with performance analysis, though not much to say really, coz i am more or less okay with top4 and bottom 4 except one from each.


start abhas, he did contorted popping. my streetdancing knowledge is very limited, but i thought he threw a little liquid in. whatever, street dancing is his style, and after attempting krumping last week, he stuck to tried and tested formula,but some of the moves were really wonderful.

next up,karan khanna as sheila. Well it was really difficult to believe this guy gave a tandav, but i found his acting a little overboard. and dancing was not that much. the x factor of him
dressing up as girl i think was the trick today, i was little relieved when he did not get into top 4, and his performance although was not outstanding, was good enough to keep him secure,but defo not top 4

next up, meher malik. Now they have thrown away all pretention and meher did a belly dance kalbeliya mix, and puppetry. Apparently, its a popular demand, people just want to see her do belly dance , or so, acc to facebook.
But today i liked meher, the dangerous stunt with the sword was really nice, other than that same ol, same ol. actually today i dont know why meher landed in danger zone, maybe overall her energy was too low, and the performance
was a bit subdued. but i liked her bits with sword. if spoilers r true, she will be there next week, and again one more cup of bellydance.

up next shaumita, she tried aerial silk and contemporary, though the silk portion was very less and i think the silk is relatively smaller cloth , and she didn't go much higher unlike some other shows like dpl, or did. Hello JD people,
even celebs in ZND and JDJ go higher in aerial. and as usual, she gave plenty of excuse while saying not giving excuse. ๐Ÿคฃcouldn't they just show the VT post her performance? Why is sympathy factor so high for saumita? Coming back
to her performance, it was bad, just bad,according to me. props to her for trying something different, cartwheel was nice, else what a little usage of space, and bad performance. How the heck she land in top4? today karan pangali actually deserved
it, his contemporary was so much better and nice expressions.

up next surjeet, he did hip hop, looked like breaking and locking to me. he was good, but nothing extraordinary, good enough to save him.

then kruti. another bad performance. her flamengo was a litle good, but her samba was distastrous, costume didn't gel with her samba dance. and overall, it was bad for me. it was expected and imo quite justified she landed there.
up next vaibhavi, she did a small bit to demonstrate, while i would not say she was outstanding,

it was nice impromptu and she is quite flexible inspite of that weight. her split is one of the best in JD so far, smooth and the transition after was worth watching the whole show.

next was rajit. good to see him trying something different, although I learnt about a new dance style, mythological. it was semi classical, mixed with kalari acc to me. he needs to work hard on his mudras and some postures.
why didn'tt he judges tell him that? but his stunts were beautiful and his transitions were flawless, i felt he needed a little more aggression and energy, but it was good. with the choices they had, he was okay choice as top4.
next up ankan, he did some locking popping , freestyle. something of the sort of abhas, and was good. he didnt move out of his comfoprt zone today but his expressions r mashallah! abhas has to work hard
in that department.I think there is something wrong between him and abhas, and its not just friendly competetion. I hope the channel doesnt
cash on it like the way they did today.๐Ÿ˜ก they r both 17 yr old boys, and r going through boyish rivalry phase, and it would be over too, just hope they dont stoke the fire for trp like today.๐Ÿ˜ก

swarali did nautanki next. Another bad performance. swarali is only good in contemporary it seems, move out of it and disaster. today it was plain bad and justified she landed in bottom 4.

yay! pangali did a contemporary. he was good, expressions, lines , transitions. beautiful!. I am shocked at how they put him in bottom and shaumita in top4. This is the only one
i absolutely donot agree. shaumita was bad today, injury or not, no usage of space, no nice expressions, restricted. and karan was flowing. oh well, we know there is foul play, what can we expect.

Abbhas - I really enjoyed his danced, but seriously, I thought it was quite similiar to his last week's performance, which was something i didn't like. It was repetetive in that sense, and though there were some new moves, they were just "some" - Maybe a 7/10

Shomita - I loved her! I'm so glad she decided to do something which wasn't classical and I thought she was stunning. Ofcourse some of her movements could be improved, but overall, amazing. 8.5/10

Karan Khanna - I actually found his movements very, very clumsy and felt that his performance also lacked dance, though it may have been amusing. Maybe a 6/10

Ankan - Boy wonder ๐Ÿ˜ I thought he was really good, and though I do accept that its similiar to what he has done before, there were new moves and overall I found him swift, nice and very very amusing :D Delightful moves he had there.. 8.5/10

Meher - Personally I found the first bit of her performance weak and I thought she was good in the second bit. She is a bit heavy-footed and some of her moves were repetetive so that went against her. But still, i enjoyed it so 7/10

Surjeet - He has improved a lot and for that appluse to him. BUT he still has a long way to go. He was good but some of his lines were clumsy and I thought he lost the tempo once or twice too. Plus his height seemed to be a disadvantage for him in this performance. But he was amazing in some bits and overall it was a really good act. 7/10

Karan Pingali - I thought this was his weakest performance up to date, even worse then his bhangra He was graceless, I couldn't connect to the performance at all and he messed up quite a bit of moves.. In contemprary you need to be smooth and fluid - two things completely lacking in his performance. 5/10

Swarili - Again, one of her weakest performances. I thought I was watching one of the eliminated contestants giving an audition or something, she was that bad She was clumsy, rushing through the moves and had no grace, whatever so.. 4/10

I will edit the ones i have missed out later, I guess.. I am tired of typing.. ๐Ÿ˜†

Abash- parts were good,but i wish he would do something differnt like claasical or comtemporary forms.

Karan Khanna-he was soo funny,and expressions were fantastic..i liked it alot and enjoyed watchin him

Meher- again alot of belly dancing,and gimmiky stuff,we already saw that when she did the fire dance,only part i liked was the beginning.

Somita-ok,i hated the fact they showed the AV first,i felt it overshadowed the judges comments on her performance. its was ok she's done better.

Rajait-i missed it

Kruti- the begiing part was really good,but when she took the skirt off ,it became stiff...but i liked it becuase it was different and she looked really nice

Ankan-he was good but i couldnt get into it as I have in his earlier performances..(i guess im upset about karan p and kruti)

Sawarli-was a disaster,it was bad,she was stiff,expressions for nautanki was too less and lipsynch was sometimes there and sometimes not.

Karan-i thought he was really good,lovely lines and expressions,and i thought he was much better that shoumita,he should have been in her place in top4.

i probably wont watch tommorow๐Ÿ˜”

Just finshed watching the performances. I am not a professional dancer so don't know how accurate my judgement of the performances will be so I won't bother analysing everyone's performance but I 100% agree with your point that soumita's performance was weak and that karan pangali defo didn't deserve to be in bottom four. As I said, I am not a professional but even as a viewer, I didn't like soumita's performance and neither did the people who were watching it with me. She may be a good dancer otherwise but this performance was no way a one to be in top four, i'm sorry but that's what I felt. Likewise, karan pangali's performance was good, and if not in top four, he defo deserved to be safe. I personally thought soumita would be in bottom four and karan p would at least be safe and not in bottom four. Judges have disappointed me with their judgement of soumita's and karan p's performance. Defo some foul play as regards to karan's performance.

I agree with most part of your analysis Tannishta.. so i wouldn't repeat the same! ๐Ÿ˜› where i didn't agree with you would be:


Karan Pangali: I thought he was pretty bad today. Contemporary is so beautiful.. i could see him struggling.. it was not a good choice on his part to take this risk.. thats what i feel after watching his performance today. And plus it was an emotional act.. and i was completely detached.. couldn't connect with it at all.

Soumita: Though it wasn't awesome..but i thought she did a decent job.. infact i liked the change.. seen her do classical always but it was quite refreshing today. Aerial silk portions were much better than that on the floor.. where she could have done better!..

Karan Khanna: I never knew i would enjoy this so much! Infact last week when i saw KK dressed up as Sheila in the pre-cap.. i was SO disappointed and rest assured he would be nothing but bad.. But literally he proved me wrong! ๐Ÿ˜› I was laughing all the way through his performance! ๐Ÿ˜† Enjoyed it thoroughly! as much as Farah and Vaibhavi! =)

Rest all the same as yours.. even i thought Swarali, Kruti were BAD! Really! Both of them are limited dancers.. Swarali apart from contemporary and Kruti apart from Ballet aren't all that good.

Ankan - was great! he is always! I know he's one contestant who has the maximum chances of winning the show up til now! =)

Abhash - Again the same! But this time with a slight twist.. CONTORTED Popping! Some of the steps were really amazing!

Rajit- He was good but the WOW factor was missing! He did dance quite well still!

Meher - The beggining was good.. but then the same belly dance.. nothing extra-ordinary.. she is getting too annoying now! =(

Surjeet - He did Bolly Hop too like Ankan.. but there was a vast difference between what Surjeet and Ankan did! I think what Surjeet did was pure Hip Hop! And he's really good at it.. I knew he would do it well.. and he did.. his steps were very clean.. came across me as one of his best performances.. but of course cuz its his forte..


MY TOP 4:

Ankan, Abhash, Surjeet and Rajit / Karan Khanna

BOTTOM 4:

Swarali, Kruti, Pangali and Meher

actually, u know seraphic, i too agree with u on karan pangali, although it still looks beautiful to me, but i think it wasnt bad, like bad top land him in bottom 4. as for shaumita, i disagree with u, i think her floorwork was clumsy and very little space usage and arial, looks beautiful always. her performance may be decent, but her cries and screeches and excuses and the sympathy gaining tricks puts me off her.

About surjeet, now that u say, i think he could have gone into top 4, he was clean and smooth but i guess the others were today better( except shaumita)

I too enjoyed karan khanna's dance, but i think he went a little overboard

Abhash Was good in whwt he did but nothing new..very repetive...been there done that sort of
thing in my opinion


Karan K Though his act was very entertaining I didn't think the dance was all that as I felt
he went a bit over the top with his expressions they could have been a bit more
sublte

Shoumita Definitely don't think she deserved to be in the top 4 even though she tried
something different.I really got put off when she was trying to get the sympathy
vote by going on about her injuries and then saying she's not giving excuses
puhleeze...pull the other one...so lame..

Rajit Gave an impactful performance but I felt his semi classical portions could have
been better

Ankan Did a great job but not as powerful as his other performances


Meher Really was not impressed as I really wanted her to do something different and
not use her belly at all..come on for at least a week try and put it away

Kruti Started off quite well but then she lost the energy the powerful impact that is
needed in salsa and samba was not there...she really needs to push her sellf..
bottom 4 was justified

Surjeet Was good as that was his forte..the moves were clean so he deserved his safe
spot

Swarali was really bad today...lack of expressions..very stiff and deserved to be in the
bottom 4


Karan P I really thought he was pretty good in with the contemporary as he danced with
such ease and grace and also swiftness...his expressions were also really good
definitely don't think he deserved to be in the bottom 4...intstead Shoumita
should have been there...don't know how she escaped that one...there
definitely seems to be some politics going on here...come on he really didn't
dance that bad for him to be in the bottom 4... at leat the safe zone would have
been understandable.


Todays performances were ok nothing amazing or mind blowingly out of this
world...the dance and concepts could have been better.

I find Ankan and Abhas play safe and stay within their genre. They were exciting once upon a time but lately its much of the same or similar dancing. I think they are overated.

I also don't think Karan was as bad to be in bottom 4, atleast he tried something new.

moral of the story is after watching todays filthy performances, Channel doesn't want to explore into newer forms, they want contestants to stay in their zone and dance, and People like Karan, Kruti, Rajit, and Swarali who want to go out of their zone and show their capabilities, Channel wants to boot them out.

Star lost all my respect, and so did Hrithik and Vaibhavi for associating with such a filthy show.
