all who are bashing Shakti for doing contemporary...here is the explanation....
when Terrence got Punit and they were to duet with Shakti, Terrence had this great contemporary dance in mind and wanted to do on 2 strong contemporary constestants and this is his chance, so chill out and dont say "again contemporary"......shakti has done lot of variety of dances til now...

The question merely isn't just executing different styles but also executing them well For example Dharmesh sir tried classical, but he didn't execute it well. Same for Shakti, she tried classical but the steps were simplified so much by Terrence that frankly her attempt at classical was completly overshadowed by Kruti and Amrita. Her attempt at hip-hop came in a duet with Jack where Jack totally outshined her as Remo and Geeta both mentioned in that episode. Outside of those 2 attempts all her other attempts accoring to me were just small variations on contemporary and not a completly different style as mentioned by OP.

No, i dont agree at all....pasa doble, avatar dance (kerala martial), bollywood dance (sridevi's, bobby wala song) is way way diff from contemporary...in duet with Jack, she did great, she was 10 and jack 20 , they were not 10-20 as u are stating please....
so she did great at those, everything till now she attempted did the best except classical which wasnt as great as others but not bad if u look at expressions, clean steps and body posture...

I think Shakti is excellent in contemporary and no one can touch her in this style. However, I do think she needs to explore into the other styles more. Of course, it might not be the best right off the bat, but that is how these contestants will learn and excel in other styles gradually. I definitely think Terrance needs to stop playing safe with her. Actually, nevermind that because he already played safe with her all throughout, and now she has no choice but to do popping from Remo and whatever Geeta gives her during her round. Either way, it is disappointing that she hasn't done many other styles. She didn't get a chance to prove her versatility and for now, I do not believe she is versatile.

^^ She is proving herself to be versatile. for past few weeks she did perform other dance styles and not only that she was highest voted too , but I would love to see her doing different styles. Really looking forward to her popping style this week !! 😃

I also think she is pretty versatile.
She did contemporary in the beginning for a while...but then she did all these other amazing non-contemporary performances.

😕 umm 😃 at least I don't have the habit of bashing other contestants while conveniently overlooking the faults and shortcomings of my contestants. I readily admitted when D sir wasn't great in his attempt at Classical. Shakti fans meanwhile are still holding the opinion that Shakti silenced all criticism of her not being versatile by doing simple classical steps in her attempt at classical.😕



I told you to STOP with your antics over here. You cannot twist my words and take out the conclusions you want to. Sorry, but I do NOT give you that right Mister!

I have NEVER bashed a contestant. You may be talking about other fans for all I care, but I NEVER have bashed any other contestant on DID Season 1 or 2. If I say they do not deserve something or another, does NOT make me bashing them, far from that, if you understand good English. What I told about you however, is a complete fact from the little I have observed. At least I do not make it my past time to comment on each and every post just to defy ANY opinion on Dharmesh that does not coincide with mine! What's more, I think you completely overlooked my post where I told you, to this day, I still prefer Kruti over Shakti. I must say, you have a knack for being stubborn.

I thought her classical attempt was strictly OK. I NEVER praised it. What I did praise her for, was trying something new. Review earlier threads and READ them before you point out on others please! Or do something, don't reply. Just like you don't reply to tens of post which you cannot counter in any way! That seems the best you can do anyway!

You admitted Dharmesh wasn't good? WOWWWWWWW! Congrats man!

Could you please stop bothering me if you are going to come up with the same things over and over again? Please? Thank you! Unlike you, I really like watching everyone on DID, and I wouldn't feel it is complete without any of them. On the other hand, if I say I didn't like something or criticize, it is so that the show as a whole improves, and not for my favorite to win each week or the finale. I believe in criticizing for the better good, not in bashing for the dislike of everyone. That's the difference between us!

shakti has proven her versatality
shakti is AMAZING at contemporary and it would be a shame if shakti stopped performing contemporary because people unnecessarily bash her each time she does
i personally love when shakti does contemporary and i know a lot of other people do too

yeh!!! shakti is very versatile and she has proven it!!!
its not her fault that sum ppl tag every different style(lyrical hip hop, urban hip hop, pure hip hop, pasa doble,classical,kerala martial,free style) as contemporary.
and if TL is playing safe with shakti than so does geeta is by giving D hip hop here and there in every different style he does (thank god she didnt asked him to do hip hop and his signature step while doing contemp.😆)
and if just doing contemp keeps shakti in top 3 for all these weeks than whats the prob.😳
just imagine if D will stop doing hip hop completely (as sum ppl want shakti to stop doing contemp completely) would u like it!!!😕
both shakti and D r the top dancers, both r in top 3 fr weeks, both r know fr their styles
then why should D do his style and different styles should be expected frm shakti. rules r for everybody!!🥱
and D is no different, hes also a contestant.
(no need to tell me not to drag geeta or shakti in it, afterall whenever a positive topic on shakti is made, D and binny fans do not forget to tell us that their favs r better than shakti, and how binny is more beautiful than shakti!!!😈😆)
