Notes[edit]

  • In Week 13, there was no elimination.
  • From Week 14 onwards, those contestants in Bottom-Two would have to perform a dance-off and one would be eliminated and one saved based on Judges scoring alone.
  • Week 15: In Week 14, Judges used VETO and Isha & Salman were to perform in Semi-finals directly due to injury thus that week they were not in the bottom two or bottom three.

^1 In the dance-off between Karan & Mohena and Rithvik & Sneha two of the judges Remo D'souza and Madhuri Dixit voted for Rithvik while another judge, Karan Johar, voted for Karan. Thus having the minority of votes Karan and his dancing partner and choreographer Mohena were eliminated.
^2 After being announced as one of the contestants for the bottom two with Rashmi, Bharti withdrew from the competition to protest Isha's stay on the show despite her being unable to deliver any performances for the last couple of weeks. Such a progression in the game according to her was not only unjust to other contestants but also violated the premises of fair play on which the competition should actually be based.
^3 Isha was originally announced as a finalist for the title; however, due to persistent injuries she has faced, she withdrew from the competition and Rashmi, in turn, was given a place in the Grand Finale.

Controversies[edit]

  • TV Actress Gia Manek was replaced overnight from her show Saath Nibhaana Saathiya for participating in Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa.[1]
  • Stand-up comedian Bharti Singh who withdrew from the competition[2] due to medical reasons on 22 September revealed that the real reason behind her quitting the show was to protest Isha's stay on the dance contest. While standing against Rashmi in the bottom two, Bharti vehemently proclaimed that she sees her performances of no worth as she believes that the reality show has been rigged and Isha's continuous progression in the competition from week to week without delivering any performances is a visible proof that the contest is being plotted on unfair grounds.[3]
