Zara Nachke Dikha is the third dance show that she is judging. Isn’t there a sense of deja vu, we query? “Not really. Dance is something that I really enjoy. I have worked with the Star team earlier in Nach Baliye, in that sense there is a sense of deja vu,” she smiles. She is excited about the show being pitted as a war between girls and boys. Malaika has her own take on the issue. “I think boys fight about inane things,” she says adding the on the show the boys and girls fight like cats and dogs. “It’s a common feeling, In fact, Chunky and I were discussing about it the other day. The two of us move around in the same social circles and we have had many fights and arguments. Whenever we have played board games, it ultimately boiled down to a girls vs boys fight. It exists between husband and wife too. It’s even there on the roads where men think women make lousy drivers and frankly I agree with them,” she smiles. Now, that might just set off another debate.

The judges really suck. Last night I saw the challenge round, and it looked like judges had no idea what is dancing all about. The two guys did a phenomenal task of doing Indian "Classical" dance (which much to my annoyance the judges kept calling it Indian dance, its Indian Classical dance). My wife is a Bharatnatyam dancer who trained for 10 yrs and many yrs ago she did a stage performance of classical dance on western music ( I think it was Humma-Humma). She tells me it is incredibly difficult dance to do. To top it, she says even she wouldn't attempt to do western right after classical, and to make it even harder, it is primarily done by women, and its incredibly hard for men to do it. And when the girls did it, their coordination was good, but then lot times they mixed western dance between classical, so neither it was perfect classical nor perfect western. To me and my wife the boys won that round hands down. These judges have no idea what dance is. How much dance does Mallika know, or for that matter Chunky know. They should have brought someone like javed jaffery who knows all about dance.
