Jhalak 2 …returns!

The second season of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa promises a real good celebrity quotient. As the unique reality based dance format show gets ready to roll we spoke to a few of the celebrities who are preparing to put on their dancing shoes. Ekta's blue-eyed boy, Ronit Roy will be shaking a leg with choreographer Nicole Alvaris. This will be his first dance competition on television. "Though, I am busy with two dailies Kyunki and Kasamh Se, I am very excited to be a part of this show. It's something different from what I've done before. I've started my practise sessions. I will be required to give only two days a week," utters Ronit. But wouldn't it become too difficult for the actor to manage dates? "It is becoming very hectic but I'll manage it. I practise in the mornings and then shoot for my soaps in the later half," reveals Ronit. Another Balaji actor, Jay Bhanushali of Kayamat fame will be seen with Bindi Khare. "This offer came to me a long time back. It'll be great fun to dance on Bollywood numbers with a whole bunch of other talented telly actors. Bindi is quite strict but I'll handle her with my charms," giggles Bhanushali. Innocent and childlike Prachi Desai is being paired with choreographer Deepak Singh. "I'm very fond of dancing and hope people will love watching me in this new avataar," says Prachi. Jhalak has also roped in veteran actress cum dancer Sudha Chandran, who's currently playing Rajeshwari Devi in Solah Singarr. "I am being paired with choreographer Uma Shankar. I want people to remember me as a dancer and not as an actor. I hope this show helps me change my image completely," signs off Sudha.
