The "number game" in Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa

It’s the number game everywhere, be it a casino, bank or a math exam, but of late the most interesting number game is being played in Colors’ Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. Well…it is kind of a roller coaster ride as the Jodi which is on number one position in a particular week can be the lowest scorer in the next. It may be remembered that in the last-to-last week’s (4 and 5 of August) episode, Rashmi Desai, Shibani Dandekar, Karan Wahi and Isha Sharvani had scored a perfect 30. However the foursome scored 27, 23, 24 and 29 last week (11 and 12 August), while Rithvik Dhanjani, who had scored 28 last-to-last week scored a full 30 this week. Talking about his performance in Jhalak, Rithvik said, “Jhalak is beyond just dancing. There has to be a concept. Initially, I had planned to show my versatility as a dancer but then I realised that I had no time for that and I had to perform with a concept in mind.” Well, that’s very true, the bars have been raised on the sets of the dance reality series. Apart from this, if the contestants fail to score well, they can be the next ones to walk out of the show. Hence, every contestant is working really hard to put up a great show. Let’s wait and watch who all surpass the elimination axe this week.
