Guru (Gurmeet) took Jhalak's trophy and this came to us. So it's sorted between us: Nach Baliye 6 winners Rithvik and Asha open up with Tellychakkar.com

After temperatures soared, nails were bitten…then boom came the announcement “Rithvik Dhanjani and Asha Negi win the Nach Baliye 6 trophy.” Leaving the talented couples viz Gurmeet Choudhary-Debina Bonnerjee, Ripudaman Handa-Shivangi Verma and Vinod-Raksha Thakur behind, this Pavitra Rishta couple danced their way to lay their hands on the winner’s trophy with a high margin of votes. Minutes after their win, the exalted couple took time out to speak to Tellychakkar.com about their journey and victory in Star Plus’ dance reality show produced by Frames Productions. “The feeling is yet to sink in; I just can’t believe that we have finally made it. I was jumping in excitement and did not know how to react. And when I turned around, I saw Asha sitting on the ground in shock. I went up to her and picked her up and hugged her and told her ‘we have won’,” said an overjoyed Rithvik. “It was such an opposite reaction; there Rithvik was up in the air while I sank on the ground. But seriously speaking, it was such a great feeling to have managed to win the trophy even when we were not even sure whether we will be participating in the contest or not. Everybody is aware as to how well Rithvik dances; so it has been a tough task for me to match steps with him. I am glad I managed to do it and we won,” exclaimed Asha. We asked Rithvik, who had earlier been in the finale of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa but came third (Gurmeet won), whether Asha was his lucky mascot with him winning the trophy this time around. Smiling lovingly at his lady love, he agreed and said, “Of course, she is my lucky charm and it’s only because of her that we won. She put in a lot of efforts and that was seen by everyone. By the time we were into the finals, people knew how much we have grown as performers in the show.” The couple had managed to hide their relationship long and it was only because of the show that they came out with their love story. Explaining the same, Asha averred, “We did not want people to know about it; only our close friends were aware of our relationship. And thus when the offer came, we were really apprehensive. But now it’s all sorted and our parents are also very happy. We are actually thankful that this offer came to us at the beginning of our relationship for we got to know so much about each other in these many days. Now we are also more confident about our relationship and know how important we are for each other.” So what are you taking back from this stage? “Memories-loads of special memories. The show has been very special to us and we went through lot of ups and downs. We started our journey with an injury and then as episodes went by, we made a foothold in the show. Everything in the show has been completely very special,” answered Rithvik. And what plans next? “We are going to party and celebrate our victory with family and friends. We have yet not decided much of the rest, but soon we might go out on a vacation. And well about the prize money, both of us want to buy a house. So let’s see how it all happens,” observed Asha. The couple left Gurmeet, another popular contestant behind. Asked to give his take on the same, Rithvik maintained, “Well apart from us, we would have loved if he had won the contest. Guru is a close friend and he too was very deserving. But thik hai na, Guru took Jhalak’s trophy and this came to us. So it’s sorted between us,” the actor chirped. And when we asked the couple to cite any special moment on the show, they spoke in unison, “The very moment when we were declared winners is the most special one for us. We would like to thank all our fans for loving and supporting us. We had been following Tellychakkar.com’s poll and saw that we were heading it. That indeed gave us a boost. We just can’t thank our fans enough and hopefully we will repay their love by our good work. A big thank you to all our crazy Ashvik fans.” We wish both Rithvik and Asha our heartiest congratulations!!!
