She came in as Ashish Sharma and Drashti Dhami’s supporter. She was even part of the show as the host in one season. Colors has been trying to get Sanaya on board for the longest time and finally it has happened this year.Ashish Chowdhry: From doing multi-starrer films, Ashish jumped television two years ago and it was a phenomenal success for the actor. Early 2015, the actor was seen in Khatron Ke Khiladi where he walked away with the trophy. Ever since Ashish has been the channel’s favourite boy and in order to continue the streak they roped him again for their reality show – JDJ. Guess if not dancing the actor will keep us entertained with his comic timing.
Vivian DSena: After Madhubala Ek Ishq Ek Junoon, Vivian has been completely off the radar and spending quality time with his family and wife. While Vivian claims that he is no dancer, there’s one thing that no one can beat him at and that it commitment. The actor knows to work hard and that’s his aim on the dancing show.
Kavita Kaushik: Playing Chandramukhi Chautala in Sab TV’s popular show FIR put her on the map. She’s done several other roles in daily soaps, but none have come close to FIR. Kavita is great with comedy, however, not much is known about her dancing skills.
Subhreet: She is a little wonder and can give all these television star a run for their money. She was seen on India’s Got Talent as a contestant. Subhreet is star wonder who can do the most difficult of step with just one foot. Her courage and talent is boundless and will definitely prove as a tough competitor.
Radhika Madan: Dancing is her first passion and then comes acting. On show wonder Radhika is the lead actress of Meri Aashiqui Tum Se Hi opposite Arjun Bijlani and Shakti Arora. Radhika is pretty, graceful and like we told you a dancer in her own right.
Deepika Samson: Again a popular Colors show’s lead actress. We wonder how the actress will manage her daily soap Sasural Simar Ka and the dance reality show. Being the child of Colors, we are the actress has worked out something out with the makers of her show. From what we hear, Deepika has some experience with dancing; maybe this show will help her learn some new forms.
Raftaar: This is the first time Raftaar is doing something that doesn’t involve rapping. From the looks of the promo, there’s one thing for sure, he’s a man of many talents. With Raftaar in the show, we are sure Manish Paul will definitely not have any trouble keeping everyone entertained.
Mohit Malik: The actor quit his daily soap to be a part of Jhalak. After playing a boy next door, Mohit played a negative character in Doli Armaano Ki and trust us when we say, wowed everyone with his performance. This will be the first time we’ll get to see the dancer side of Mohit.
Faisal Khan: This little star is a self made celebrity. He started off with Dance India Dance Li’l Masters, where he walked away with the prestigious award. Then for over a year or two, Faisal played the character of Maharana Pratap. And now he is back what he loves doing the most- dancing. Will he walk away with the trophy again? Who knows!
