The Sunday episode of Super Dancer – Chapter 4 will see veteran actor Madhoo grace the dancing reality show and enjoy some mesmerizing performances put forward the contestants. One duo that caught the attention of everyone were contestant Pratiti Dass and Super Guru Shweta Warrier who performed a Bharatanatyam act on the song, Choti Si Asha. Their performance was so good that it garnered a standing ovation from the judges – Shilpa Shetty Kundra, Anurag Basu and Geeta Kapur followed by guest judge Madhoo.
Praising their performance, an amazed Madhoo said, “I have seen many people perform on, ‘Choti Si Asha’ but seeing you’ll do a Bharatanatyam on this song is a first for me. It was really beautiful and the choreography was amazing.”
In addition, revealing an interesting story behind the filming of the song Choti Si Asha, Madhoo said, “It usually takes approximately 3 to 4 days to complete song rehearsals but, shooting for, ‘Choti Si Asha’ took about 17 to 18 days. It was not shot like a song. When we used to travel from one location to the other, our director (Mani Ratnam) used stop on the way and get us to shoot anywhere he liked. I think in the process, we didn’t make a song; we actually collected a lot of moments while shooting for it.”
Furthermore, applauding Pratiti’s mother, Madhoo adds, “My mother was also a Bharatanatyam teacher and she used to teach a lot of girls. She was my first dance teacher too. I think it is easy to learn from a teacher as compared to learning from your mother because mothers are more strict.”
Later, on everybody’s request Madhoo gets on the stage and performs Bharatanatyam with Pratiti which will be a treat for everyone to watch.
