First we apologize for being late with our write up for last weeks episodes of Boogie Woogie come back. It has already been over two weeks that Boogie Woogie celebrated its glorious 15 year celebrations and little hard to believe that Boogie Woogie’s biggest fan website had no write up till date. Well we had our reasons. Firstly we still are thinking if that was true or was it just a dream? And secondly we really wanted to wait before we publish any write up on the show. You see many times our articles come out strong in favor of Boogie Woogie. So this time around, we wanted to wait and see if we feel the same after watching other dancing shows that are going on other television channels. We felt since more then half of the crowd are all ex Boogie Woogieans on other shows, the comparison and competition should be at par. But Boogie Woogie again surprises us with a clean sweep in their unique talent search and the quality of their dances. If you watched Boogie Woogie, and then watch another dance show, you only end up having a luke warm feeling for other dancing shows. The dances are hardcore on Boogie Woogie and even though the participants come from remote of places, the standard is totally untouchable!
Well, Boogie Woogie Kids Championships, the start was fabulous with all three judges starting the show with their performance. 9 month wait for the show was really like a new life but with a lot of zeal and energy. Judges announced there were going to be two elimination weeks and about 40 kids would participate to try out their luck with only half of the kids qualifying for the next round.
The 19 super kids that participated in week one were:
| 1) Shreya Sen | 11) Soumya Rai |
| 2) Vaishnavi Bamrekar | 12) Sarath N Gokul |
| 3) Adya Apreeta Devi | 13) Priya Barman |
| 4)Arjun Nair | 14) Anagha Pawar |
| 5) Wahenoor Kaur | 15) Kanchi Shinde |
| 6) Adil Khan | 16) Omkar Shetty |
| 7) Raja Mallick | 17) Maushami Makeshwar |
| 8 Pratiksha Sutar | 18) Chetan |
| 9) Amisha Tandon | 19) Sanjana Surve |
| 10) Tejasani Vadhane |
All kids came with performances that left a great impact on its audiences. Their talent was not at par but way exceeded the talent that is seen on other shows and these little tots came with a zeal to set a totally new record for times to come – a record that is only possible on Boogie Woogie!
After fabulous performances, the final 9 contestants that were declared to enter into the next round were:
| 1) Priya Barman |
| 2) Sarath Gokul |
| 3) Maushami Makeshwar |
| 4) Adil Khan |
| 5) Raja Mallick |
| 6) Amisha Tandon |
| 7) Soumya Rai |

There was a surprise element that Boogie Woogie introduced and that was “Energetic Performance of the Day” announcement for both Wednesday and Thursday. For Week 1, Adil Khan for Wednesday and Priya Barman for Thursday were declared “Energetic Performers of the Day”.
Today, let’s talk about something different. Something that is not related with dance but before that let us talk a little about our everyday lives. How are we doing? We wake up in Morning and get busy with our routine work – routine work gets so hectic that we feel like a robot most of the times. Everything needs to be done within its time limit and if we snooze then we loose. The outside world is too harsh and we cannot take any risk by snoozing even for few seconds. The word “Success” is so much on our mind that it occupies us 24/7. We think being successful is being “RICH” and so the word success gets correlated with another word “Money”. We start to feel if we are successful (rich) then it will be a good show at the society or else not. And in this process we make our lives so much busier that we create lot of stress on ourselves. Our week days fly and our weekends we struggle and juggle a million projects together. We can’t help. It is a competitive world. We need to be on our toes so that we can have a secured future. We up bring our children with the same attitude as well. As a matter of fact, today’s children they have lot more pressure over their head then the grown up’s. They not only have to learn to be successful and rich but also have to live their parent’s dreams.
“Charity” - What is that? I recently was reading some stuff on charity and in this process; I came across a definition that was beautifully put by a Yahoo member – according to him “Charity is opening your heart and giving a hand to someone in need. Charity doesn’t necessarily have to be something material. Sometimes just being there can have much greater value than money or worldly goods. Charity which comes from within the heart shows that you care and have compassion for the people around you. That in return is a good foundation for developing a role model which would be of a much greater benefit to the community”
