Please make sure to tune in to your TV’s at 3:30 PM and make sure to watch what a fabulous talent America has got. Who says Indian culture lives only in India?

Junior Level:
Sagar Patel - Los Angels

We were all waiting anxiously for this and saw the airing of Boogie Woogie Chalo America. Although we were happy to see ourselves on TV, we were more disappointed with the content aired. All the participants entire dance did not air and it is not at all fair. I think every kid and their parents had put lot of efforts and went through lot of pressure of the competition. All of us were looking forward for this broadcast. In return what we got was 30 sec clips. Undeservingly the unknown and bay-surey singers where given more footage which nobody wanted to watch. This is ridiculous on Sony TVs part and whoever edited the show and was incharge of broadcasting this show. This show needs to be broadcast again with full dance sequences of all participants.

The long waiting ends up with a disappointment from Sony telecast of B & W on July 19th, 2009.
Dance performances were edited so much that they looked incomplete. I was anxiously waiting for the telecast but it was surprising to see hardly 1 or 2 minutes out of total 3 minutes from each performer. Now I know everyone’s faimly and friends have missed out a lot. The time was wasted on the guest artist singing during a solo dance competition. SET ASIA would have had much more publicity by showing children’s full performances. B & W Chalo America 2009 telecast was rushed and “choppy” for Boogie -Woogie fans. Telecast should be repeated with full 3 minutes performance by all the kids to establish a good image of Boogie- woogie show in America.

We are also extremely dissappointed with the Editing of this show. We have been watching this show for years and have enjoyed it all these years. Having our daughter Rhea come on the show was something we were eagerly looking forward to, but THOROUGHLY DISSAPOINTED with the ruthlessly edited version.
I think the show should be RE-EDITED AND RE-TELECASTED with the complete performances (minus the Singers performances).
Boogie Woogie should show the USA viewers their TRUE Mission of encouragement of the dancing talents of young kids and ensure that they stand up to their Image amongst the American-Indian community.
Adeebah, as everyone has said, you did an amazing job and I am sure you will make sure that our feelings are communicated to the right people ASAP.
