Yet another reality dance show!

After Dus Ka Dum and Waar Pariwaar failed to boost TRPs for Sony, the channel is now bringing in another reality show on weekdays at 8pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays. A dance reality show featuring television celebrities, Kabhi Kabhi Pyaar Kabhi Kabhi Yaar is Balaji's second show in the reality genre wherein each celebrity will perform with his/her real and reel life partner. Judges and viewers will check their chemistry and performance. However, this time around there is no voting for viewers. Judges' marks will decide the winners. The show will be telecast for seven weeks spread over 14 one-hour episodes.

The seven trios participating in the show include Hiten Tejwani, Gauri Pradhan and Nandini Singh, Kashmeera Shah, Krushna and Mukul Dev, Amit Sarin, Vinisha Sarin and Aashka Goradia, Karnvir Bohra, Teejay Siddhu and Tina Parekh, Vishal Singh, Praneeta Sahu and Dimple Jhangiani, Jatin Shah, Priya Bhatija and Shalini Chandran and Mridul, Tina and Wasna Ahmed. Sameera Reddy, Mahesh Bhatt and Ganesh Hegde are the judges on the show, which will be anchored by the vivacious Rakshanda Khan and Sachin Tyagi.

In the first episode, all seven celebrities will perform with their spouses. In the second episode, the same celebrities will perform with their on-screen partners. From second week, one trio will be eliminated, till the last two trios are left to compete for the finals. The most interesting twist in the show is that the bottom two celebrities will have to choose one of his partners — either the spouse or on-screen partner, depending on who gets better marks — for the next performance. Says Sony's executive vice president and business head Albert Almeida, "Dance-based reality shows have an emotional, dramatic and visually appealing side to them. However, in this show viewers will witness for the first time the actual chemistry between their favourite star and his/her real and reel partner."
