"India Wala Dance" is a great theme. Finally moving beyond just Bollywood remixes to showcase our diverse folk and classical forms? Hope they include Garba, Bhangra, Lavani... the real heartbeat of India's dance culture.

As someone who has lived in India for a few years, the dance shows here are on another level. The talent is incredible. Jaaved seems like a perfect judge - knowledgeable and encouraging. Looking forward to it.

Respectfully, I hope the show focuses more on the dancers and less on the judges' celebrity status. Sometimes these shows become about the panel's jokes and reactions. Let the talent shine!

Nostalgia hitting hard! Jaaved bhai is a legend. Weekend plans sorted with the family. My kids love dance, and this is a great show to watch together. Sony, please keep the episodes on Sony LIV quickly.
