We all know that Boogie Woogie is coming back after its seasonal break but what came as a pleasant surprise was its “HATKE” announcement! We LOVED it!!
A show that is the father and mother of all reality shows and in real is the first dance reality show of India is always expected to do things that are different from others. After its, rather a little long break, Boogie Woogie fans were really waiting anxiously for its return and we at Boogie Woogie India Fan Blog were hoping for something different then usual. Today, we can proudly say, the announcement of the show was more then what we hoped and as a matter of fact has crossed our expectations making us tremendously happy and now we hope the show in actual when it makes its come back will be at par with this announcement!! Good going Boogie Woogie – Keep it Up!!
Anytime I came across the word “group dance”, I mostly use to dig out for foreign videos because I felt they stand a class apart in their coordination and in their look and feel but the same thinking was changed once I saw the movie Jajantaram Mamantaram especially one song that I loved it instantly – the song is called “Rambam Rambabam”. The video is so colorful with soft feel and plus the group has danced very gracefully. It is superbly coordinated as well. I choose the same song as the “Song of the Weekend” and hope you all enjoy watching this beautiful piece. Have a great weekend folks!!
Who isn’t missing Boogie Woogie and who isn’t missing our sweet and humble judges. Yes all Boogie Woogie fans are and so we at Boogie Woogie India – a Fan Blog, brought some lighter moments created by our own Jaaved Jaaffery to brighten your day. Its a masterpiece!
Enjoy and Keep Smiling!
Yes you heard it right! Original Boogie Woogie’s “Prince Dance Group” of Orissa shines like the brightest star outside of MSM/Sony Territory. Recently the group took part in “India got Talent” on Colors Channel and have managed to make everybody their fan. Prince Dance Group repeated the same performances that they did in Boogie Woogie since 2006 - 2009 and gained great applauds and instant stardom.
One can search for “Prince Dance Group” online and the search returns back with 95,500 plus searches – its more searches that is found for any Bollywood star or superstar. You will find million to dozen forums and chat houses 
discussing their performances and applauding them as they saw them for the first time. It is not surprising to see many emails that comes to ones inbox with links of Prince Dance Group videos from friends all over the world with Colors TV logo on it. Its gets pretty amazing to see people sending the video clips from countries and cities where “Colors Channel” is not even available. How and why? If Prince Dance Group first appeared on Sony TV and that too with the exact costumes, make up and performances then how come that it gained maximum popularity and stardom from Colors TV? Except for Sony viewers, rest of the viewers saw them for the first time when India Got Talent got launched. Now I am going to come back to the same rotten topic that I have been discussing for over a year – Videos!!!
The common thinking is that any channel’s TRP is due to their viewership. Based on the TRP, a 
channel gains its popularity and also fetches its awards if any but most importantly it gains its sponsors which is the key source of a channels income. The more the advertisements and sponsors for their shows, the more the profits. And companies do not sponsor a show or spend millions on advertisement if the viewership is poor. But a channel is entirely responsible for making any shows viewership either poor or rock solid. The way they present, market and make themselves available gets them their popularity. Let me cut the crap and talk about Colors and their super hit show called India Got Talent!!
India Got Talent did not had as much TRP or popularity as it got after the show was aired. Boogie Woogie’s one of the finest talented performers called “Prince Dance Group” got all the necessary applauds and praises for the channel. Their performed videos hit every 
space and nook like wild flowers. People not only loved what they saw but also felt proud in appraising and forwarding the same to all that were listed in their mailing list. One question that comes to Boogie Woogie fans mind is how come Colors channel did not track those videos and deleted them just like Sony does? Well for only one simple reason and that is because they are smart!! The result of their smartness should be visible next season with high returns and maximum TRP and as well as Popularity and should fetch them high yielding sponsorships where as the performances that were given by the same group on Sony are biting dust in Sony studios waiting their chance for a rerun. They say right “ones stupid decision can cause someone else all their success”.
Well cutting the crap, let me come back to my another point. Long time ago, if you go through the archive, you will 
see that I had mentioned Boogie Woogie’s best find and Prince Dance Group was definitely in my few selected list. I so very wanted to put their awesome performance video on this fan blog for a very long time but due to crazy copyrights by Sony, could not publish the third party videos but they say right if you want something bad then you will find a way and so thanks to the plenty of emails that I got from friends with the video clips, I am able to fulfill one of my dream – a dream to put Prince Dance Group videos on this blog!
Enjoy the two fabulous videos of Prince Dance Group along with this article. Please remember that these two videos are the exact same performances that were presented on Boogie Woogie stage

![javed - woogie boogie[1]](http://www.boogiewoogieindia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/javed-woogie-boogie1.jpg)
Today the show started with Javed and there was no Ravi and Naved. Now listen to this - its hilarious, Javed says there is a good news and bad news and the good news is that Ravi and Naved both will not be on the show tonight and the audience is clapping and cheering (of course a drama) and then Javed says the bad news is that they are at a school but via satellite they will be dropping by from time to time and the audience starts to boo. Okay this was not all - the next scene is shown where Ravi and Naved both are walking into a class and the contestants of Naache Taare Zameen Par are in that class. They say dance is important but at the same time prayers are important too so stand up and pray! And here you find all the kids standing with their hands together to sing a bhajan
"Hamare Ravi Naved mahaan,
hamare Ravi Naved mahaan
Ooncha Chauda maatha inka,
Ooncha chauda maatha inka
Bandar jaise Kaan
Hamare Ravi Naved mahaan"
It was hilarioussssssss, now back to studios where Javed narrated a joke and then he announce the guest for Friday night’s guest on Boogie Woogie which was "Anu Malik". He not only came to judge the talent of Naache Taare Zameen Par but also came to promote the music of upcoming movie "Victory" starring Harman Baweja. I heard the music of it and I do like the music to tell you honestly. Though sometimes Anu Malik’s behavior and attitude really puts me off but he does have plenty of superhit super melodious compositions to his credit. Probably very few I can say I didn’t like but otherwise he is a talented composer minus the attitude.
Javed explains to him about tonight’s episode where he says the last years participants will be accompanying the Naache Taare Zameen Par contestants and it is going to be great. Anu Malik then expresses his interest and says he is eager to see the talent of Boogie Woogie.
Ravi and Naved then are shown via sattelite where both of them are in the class wishing Anu Malik. I cannot write their jokes at this point, you will just have to see it. 
The first participant to start the show rocking was Vaishali Patil and Cyrus from last year accompanied her on song "No no tum kissi pe na marna" and they danced superbly. Vaishali especially was way better then the PVC pipe in the original movie and I enjoyed her dance to the core for the first time. And I must say the somersaults that they took were breath taking. Simply awesome! On the whole the entire performance was just fantastic. Vaishali is extremely talented kid and she has proved herself in classical and today in western she matched her dance with same amount of energy and perfection. Awesome Vaishali - Keep it up!!
Anu Malik complimented her saying when she didn’t understand the lyrics but she gave perfect expressions. And also he invited her for Indian Idol and praised her singing. Cyrus Wong then did a somersault on his head on Javed’s request and it was simply mind blowing. Javed corrected that to be head spin and then he performed a head flip. Whatever he performed it was awesome!!
I for some reason can’t seem to believe its Anu Malik on the sets of Boogie Woogie. He is so much behaving - Damn!! I do like him better this way. Wish he continues this way on the Indian Idol show too. Anyway back to the Patshaala where Ravi and Naved asks their students to write an essay on their favorite animal and one of their student writes on both of them. It was hilarious.
The next participant to perform tonight little smiley doll - Sayalee Tupe. She did a Marathi dance with her partner and both of them were adorably aweosme. Both the heights and personalities matched and plus the dance steps were highly enjoyable. The after performance talk was great especially of Anu Malik. Maybe its the sets of Boogie Woogie that changes the person. Anyway tonight’s show is very entertaining. Must watch!!!
Madhav Wazalwar answers a question that Anu Malik asks him. The question was what is the similarity between Naved and George Bush so Madhav answers back saying "Press throws shoes on Bush and girls does the same on Naved". Hilarious but a lot of times I do wonder why Ravi and Naved joke all the time about themselves. I am pretty sure no such thing happens in their actual life so why such jokes?
The next participant to take the show forward was Sakshi and Sanjana Bamrada. They danced on song "Aye bachu tu sunle". They were dressed in classical and danced very well. Though what I felt was Sanjana’s dance was more energetic then Sakshi’s. There was slightly sync problem by a second. But on the whole it was fantastic. After performance talk was hilarious both talking gibberish and as well as singing Anu Malik’s song. By the way I really liked the way Anu Malik instantly made music on the riddle and I thought that was awesome.
Though Ravi and Naved were in the classroom but you could miss their presence in the studio. I wonder why they are not in the studios?????
The next participant was the little wonder who has been winning everyone’s heart with her talent and plus with her innocence - Swasti Nitya. She was dressed up so adorably in Punjabi and came to dance on song - Salaam e ishq. She did absolutely a fabulous job. She normally dances flawlessly for a 5 year old but today she tore the stage apart with perfect tumkas and latkas and jhatkas. Her partner Amruta too was brilliant. Her after performance talk was again as usual was heart warming. Must watch!!
Watch Javed do Javed Akhtar’s mimicry - he is such a talented guy. They way he played music with mouth was amazing. I also heard that he plays great guitar and keyboard. What a guy!! God Bless You Javed!!
Next was Sanoy who performed really adorably and his performance was really energetic and very much in sync and I definitely have enjoyed it a lot. They danced on song "Kaisi kaisi Ram milaye jodi". Their expressions, steps and every moment was just fantastic. Must watch! Oh my God, it is so nice to watch the mellow down Anu Malik, it was fantastic which only makes me feel that the drama that we see on Indian Idol is only scripted or Sony is making him behave like Simon and in actually Anu Malik is a good person. Damn these channels for what all they do for the TRP’s! Anyways the after performance talk and singing between Anu Malik and Sanoy was fantastic. Thoroughly enjoyable.
Then there was a spoof between Ravi and Madhav and Bondiya.
The last participant for tonight was Nupur who performed with Prerna. Both the girls danced to "Chori chori dekhe mujhko". I use to feel that Nupur’s performances were okay in the beginning but as the time went on she started to surprise with her hidden talent and this weeks performance was the best of the evening. You could enjoy every beat because of the dance they performed. Both the girls were absolutely flawless. A Must must Watch!!
Anu Malik sings "Ek garam chai ki pyali ho" and Javed gave music. It was fantastic!!
With this the Friday night episode ended and the rest of the participants will perform on Saturday night before the eliminations.
TO WATCH THE VIDEOS, PLEASE VISIT EITHER INDIA-FORUMS OR APNI COMMUNITY!!
Since the time this blog came into effect, we have been writing that this is only a fan blog and has nothing to do with the OFFICIAL channel or the show – “Boogie Woogie”. I don’t think there can be any other honest way then what we have adopted for this blog.
Anytime, anyone communicated whether it was via emails or via comments, we always have guided them to Boogie Woogie’s official physical address in Mumbai and have given their official website and email id. We are a fan blog running in appreciation for the show and moreover for the judges for their unbiased judgment and the real life lessons that they teach in their own style.
This blog has no commercial value and also you will not see any silly pop ups or advertisements. We wanted to keep the blog free of any ads only so that “WE” and “FANS LIKE US” can show our appreciation and dedication for the people who we admire the most – Javed, Naved and Ravi.
We publish any news related to auditions that we see on air either in India or in US that we feel might help the aspirants of Boogie Woogie. None of the information that we bring you is fabricated or is published for any of our good. What we see, we publish that.
Recently we had uploaded third party videos and pictures and they are by no means downloaded by us as they are available over internet and on various third party hosts and communities. We have stopped embedding Boogie Woogie videos and pictures after coming to know that MSM Satellite does not give rights for publishing and hence you will not see any videos or pictures of Boogie Woogie on this site with immediate effect for all our future articles and reviews. Although BoogieWoogieIndia.Com did contact Sony prior to publishing this website to go through the web content and features that it will be dealing with and when there was no response whatsoever, this blog continued to embed videos and pictures.
Anyway what came as a blast to us was when we read that MSM was ACCUSING this blog for conducting auditions in United States of America pretending to be Boogie Woogie and charging the contestants a fee of $50/-. That is the most RETARDED thing we have ever heard in our life!
There were advertisements that were broadcasted on air regarding the auditions on Sony Channel in USA for every few minutes that gave the contact numbers and regular updates and I am sure many Non Resident Indians and American Indians can vouch for it. This blog also had contacted the local organizers in USA and received audition fee details and application form via email. We DO hold the email and picture screen shots as a proof against the ghastly accusation by retarded company such as MSM. Also there was advertisement on air that had collaborated Boogie Woogie New York finals at South Sea Port in New York along with Deepawali celebrations where singer Raghav had participated. IF THIS IS CLAIMED AS A SCAM BY MSM THEN THEY NEED TO LOOK AT THEIR BROADCASTING DATES AND question their OFFICIALS in USA FROM WHERE IT ORIGINATED and they better research it right and get their facts straighten up before accusing this blog!
There are pictures of contact numbers and updates for USA Auditions that went on air and those pictures WILL NOT be removed from this blog as a precaution and proof of it being telecasted on air.
Also we think its time that the participants and aspirants who paid the fee in hope to be part of Boogie Woogie Chalo America, needs to find out what it is all about. If Sony refuses to have any connection with the contacts then how come they were advertised on their channel and why is it being denied now? People - it’s your right – get to the core of it!!
This blog will continue to run in full swing in admiration of the judge’s Ravi, Naved and Javed and also for the talent that is show cased on Boogie Woogie. We just will not have the pictures and videos. As for MSM – GET WELL SOON!!
