Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa

Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa is a reality television show and the Indian version of BBC's Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing with the Stars.

Concept[edit]

In Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, celebrities perform various dances together with professional dance partners. The show's format is taken from the Strictly Come Dancing show on BBC One in the UK.[1] The show is also pre-recorded, unlike Strictly Come Dancing and other spin-offs.[1] Of the spin offs, the Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa is the only one that uses recorded tracks rather than live music with an in-house band.[1]

The title derives from "Jhalak Dikhlaja" (Let Me Have a Glimpse of You), a popular song from the film Aksar (2006).

Elimination[edit]

The show airs its elimination on a Sunday in every season. The contestants who are in the danger zone will have to be in the face-off round.

Airing[edit]

The first four seasons of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa were aired on Sony TV.

From its fifth season it has been airing on Colors TV.[2]

10th season airing on voot. From July
