I look at an oversized Renuka Shahane dancing in the current season of Jhalak Dikhlaja… and it instantly takes me back to Jhalak’s first season where a fairly fat Mona Singh was put to test her dancing skills – and at the same time shed some kilos too!!! Ditto is the case with Renuka! The much loved Bhabhi with her ever smiling face might have swayed all hearts but… what irks me is the fact - how someone can use ‘dancing on national TV’ as a medium to lose weight! AH… This is not sinking in my mind.
Well, well… I often get confused, am I watching some dance show or attending some weight losing class? I remember how choreographer Farah Khan used to tell Mona Singh to work on her curves, so that her dance moves can come out well. And this time too, Renuka has alreadt got a tip of advice from judges Madhuri and Malaika to shed some kilos and make her body more flexible.
Meanwhile, having seen Renuka dancing in two episodes, I couldn’t stop but laugh and crib and feel bad about her… First, because, what was the need to come out in open on small screen and scream that you’re overweight and can’t attempt too tough dance steps. Second, what makes Renuka think that wearing that Empire line Anarkali suits would help her hide her flab! No baby, you look as fatty in those outfits as you look otherwise! Lastly, all the practice, rehearsals and confidence go for a toss when your body weight stops you from performing well on the stage.
Hmmm, what else do I say? Maybe there should be a weight check for all the participants before they participate in any dance show, so that no excuses come later for their awful performances!!!
