Zee TV is back with another edition of Dance India Dance and we have to say we are quite excited about this one! The show has been one of the best dance reality shows that we have seen over the years and it has served as a platform from several talented performers from across India. This year too, we will expect to see a lot of talented dancers take to the stage and if the first episode was anything to go by, then expect some fantastic performances in the weeks to come. Yes, the grand premiere of Dance India Dance season 6 took place today (November 04) and we have to say it was amazing. Grand master Mithun Chakraborty promised us that this season will be all about dance and nothing else. Keeping that in mind, he has rejigged the panel of judges panel and selected people whose life revolves around dance. With that Marzi Pestonji, Mudassar Khan and Mini Pradhan are announced as the judges, while Sahil Khattar and Amruta Khanvilkar will host the show.

The first episode saw several dancers from across India come and give some interesting auditions. While some were amateur artistes, some were trained dancers. But all in all they put up a great show. Not only did they impress the judges with their energetic and innovative performances, but also won over the audience. We saw a variety of dance forms too, but what were the highs and lows of the first episode? Here’s a brief break down.

What’s Hot

Being a dance reality show, we expect some stunning performances and that’s what we got! From lavani to hip hop to some new and innovative dance forms, the contestants went all out to impress the judges and ended up winning our heart. A few contestants, who don’t have any formal training in dance, surprised us by giving out some flawless technical acts. And one of the best performances of the day saw a guy perform some insane stunts too. All in all the show looks high on the dance and entertainment quotient. But it was the judge’s technical knowledge that impressed us the most. As Mithun promised us, he has chosen the best of the best to pick some talented dancers and they did just that. They pointed out the slightest of slight intricacies, which was very good to watch and we are sure these dancing stars of the future will learn a lot from them.

What’s Not

Though the first episode was entertaining, we are not so pleased with the length of the show. One and a half hours is too much and we really thought the show was stretched at some parts. One hour would be the ideal time period for the show. Also we understand that the human interest, background stories do interest people but I guess they were overdone in some parts.

What to Do?

Anyway, Dance India Dance season 6 looks really interesting and entertaining. It also has the potential to be one of the best reality shows. And we guess you should definitely watch it for the phenomenal performances by these talented contestants from across India!
