A sneak peek at Shilpa Shetty's performance

Super Dancer Chapter 3 judge Shilpa Shetty will showcase her dancing skills during the grand finale.

Shilpa Shetty said, “I am performing bharatnatyam after 25 years. It was by choice that I didn’t perform bharatnatyam on small screen. While preparing for the act, I was very nervous as I rarely do any stage performance. I get such opportunities once in an year when I am part of dance reality shows like Super Dancer. In the show, contestants like Dhairya Tandon and Anwesha Bhataiya have brought the different level of classical tadka in their dancing which somewhere encouraged me to choose bharatnatyam as my Grand Finale performance,”

Anurag Basu, another judge on the show, said, “I want Shilpa back on the big screen. It’s been a long time we saw Shilpa on big screen.” Judge Geeta Kapoor added, “Divas like Shilpa should always be on the big screens setting benchmarks for others. I feel grateful and blessed to witness Shilpa perform live. I don’t think I will ever be able to match the benchmark Shilpa has set with her performance on Super Dancer Chapter 3.”
