Dance India Dance announced the countrywide auditions for its
fourth season, there has been much speculation about what’s new
on DID this time around! Audiences across the country have
waited eagerly to find out if DID will repeat its famous judge
trio or will there be new mentors to judge Season 4?
While Geeta Kapur, Remo D’souza and Terence Lewis will remain an
inseparable part of the DID family, it’s time now to welcome
some young blood onto the panel of judges who will lend a new
dimension to ‘Dance India Dance’ and drive the country towards
creating a new dance movement! Here’s presenting the three new
mentors …
He is the man behind some of the most iconic steps you’ve seen
the very Dabangg Salman Khan groove to! A talent discovered by
Salman, Mudassar Khan is the superstar’s first choice for
choreographing all the racy, popular item numbers across films
like Bodyguard, Dabangg 2 and Ready. He is also credited with
the current rage ‘Party All Night’ from the film ‘Boss’. Apart
from film choreography, Mudassar also runs his own Hip Hop
School and owns the very famous Hip Hop troupe called
‘Sharpshooterz’. At just 26 years of age, he is the youngest of
the 3 new masters and is fondly called the “Master Blaster” for
his spirited, sporty attitude.
Belonging to a family of choreographers, Shruti Merchant has
dance in her blood! She began her career assisting sister
Vaibhavi Merchant in choreographing films like Dhoom 1, 2 and 3,
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Aaja Nach Le, Kal Ho Na Ho and Devdas
amongst others. For the past five years she has toured countries
like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, U.K,
Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands, Romania, South
Africa, China, Singapore and Thailand with the theatrical
musical “The Merchants of Bollywood”. She recently won a Best
Choreographer Award for her debut song ‘Thug Le’ in ‘Ladies Vs.
Ricky Behl’. A powerhouse of energy and an utterly vivacious
chatter-box, Shruti warms your heart from the word “Go!”.
Trained in Bharatnatyam and Kathak, Shruti has a commendable
prowess over Indian dance forms. Producing and directing India’s
first ever international theatrical musical production – ‘Taj
Express’, Shruti comes with immense knowledge of training
dancers.
He started his career in 1996 as an assistant to ace
choreographer Farah Khan. Ever since, there has been no looking
back for Feroz Khan who is credited with smash hits like Maa Da
Laadla from Dostana and Move Your Body from Johnny Gaddaar. With
plum projects like Agneepath, Ra.One, Aisha, Anjaana Anjaani and
Fukrey to his choreography credit, Feroz is certainly making
waves in the industry. Being the most experienced judge on the
panel, Feroz is a man of few words and shares his pearls of
wisdom in his own inimitable style.
Speaking of the new judge trio, Ajay Bhalwankar, Head-Content,
Hindi GECs, ZEEL said, “We are proud of our choices for the
fresh panel of mentors on Dance India Dance Season 4. Each of
them comes with an impressive body of work in the field of
dance. But, above all, it is their passion for dance that has
landed them these coveted positions on our panel of judges. At
ZEE, we believe in making celebrities out of deserving talent.
Geeta, Remo and Terrence were not household names when we signed
them on for DID, but look where they are today! It is our
mentors’ fervor for dance that will drive millions of
enthusiasts across the country to ‘dance it out’! Each of them
has their own unique personality and together, they’re a lethal
combination.”
Even as the passion, the frenzy, the camaraderie, the
rehearsals, the victories, the disappointments, the hosts, the
judges and above all, the spectacular dancing talent return with
renewed vigor in the latest season of the show, watch this space
for more on ‘Dance India Dance Season 4’!
