Was not able to update ... had an unusually hectic time at work and weekends got busy too. Will update at leisure with all the pics I can find.
Had some amazing acts from Sanaya and Mohit the last couple of weeks - a wonderful, totally unique Pasa Doble set in Indian political context, followed by a very inspiring act based on the love story of an acid attack victim.
The following week we had a rather creepy act - Sonakshi's challenge was that the couples have to be physically joined during the act. Sanaya and Mohit did an act portraying a black widow spider attacking her prey. Again choreography was brilliant, and Sanaya's expressions even more so.
After this act, they were announced to be finalists. Sanaya's relief and tears were evident.
The following day was the last act for the finale - Gajar ne kiya hai ishaara ... very retro peppy act, set among 7-8 mirrors, deceptively simple, but in actual fact very difficult choreography, since the camera had to remain out of sight of all the mirrors, and Sanaya and Mohit often danced with their backs to each other, hence coordination had to be impeccable. This is one of my favorite acts, along with the Pasa Doble and the Mumbai terror attacks.
Finale week was tense, as all Sanaya and Monaya fans went all out for voting, but of course Star Plus and madam DT were playing their own games. Expectedly, Sanaya and Mohit did not win ... unexpectedly, even Sanam and Abigail did not win. SP crowned its bahurani and her pati the un-deserving winners. How undeserving can be seen from the fact that almost no one congratulated the winners on social media except for members of their show team. Not even the ones who had made vote appeals for them. As for the number of memes floating around mocking the 'winners' ... hilarious!!!
So much for reality shows on Indian telly! I am so glad I was not invested in this show ... learned my lesson after JDJ. I'm happy Sanaya and Mohit took part ... gave them both good visibility and exposure, and kept them in the public eye, especially since Sanaya has since left her Sony show, due to long delays.
And now, I am glad Sanaya is done with reality shows ... there are no more she can do ... so hopefully she will get back to her real love - acting ... and soon! Can't wait to see her in a fiction show again ... it has been far too long!
So my next set of posts will hopefully be on rumors surrounding Sanaya's next show ... hope the rumors start soon!!!
