Saroj dance's with Swasti

Six-year-old Swasti Nitya chose to perform this difficult dance on the show Chak Dhoom Dhoom in front of Masterji Saroj Khan, who was also a part of the song when it went on screen and whose guruji had choreographed the song! The little girl managed to floor everybody with her performance. The veteran choreographer was so impressed with her little shagird that she couldn't stop herself from coming and shaking a leg with Swasti. “This song was a very difficult choice for a six-year-old. Even older girls and women have made lots of mistakes while performing on this song. She performed with ease, as if it was made for her,” said Masterji.

First elimination on Zara Nachke Dikha

This time it’s one of the masakali girls who bid adieu to the stage of ‘Zara Nachke Dikha’. A source says, “Additi Gupta was the one who was nominated last week and as our lady failed to charm the audience as eliminated. Apart from the elimination, Kritika Kamra will be seen for the first time in a solo performance and the performance by Aamir Ali proved to be mesmerizing as well.”

Even though Additi Gupta had said good bye to the show this week, the Masakali girls were the ones who won and got the chance to nominate one of the Mastkalandar boys. Once again the Masakali girls nominated Kapil Nirmal who had been nominated once before but was saved by his performance. But for Additi Gupta left the stage making the girls completely powerless for the very first time in the show.
