Mumbai
(ANI):
Actress
Rakhi
Sawant
will
participate
in
dance-based
reality
show
called
'Yeh
Hai
Jalwa'
in
Mumbai.
Rakhi,
who
has
the
knack
of
remaining
controversial,
is
sure
about
audiences
voting
in
her
favour.
"I'm
happy
that
there
are
no
judges
in
this
reality
show,
because
if
there
are
judges
in
the
show,
a
lot
of
buttering
is
required.
Till
date,
I
have
not
indulged
in
buttering.
I've
come
forward
on
my
own
ability
and
hard
work.
I
have
given
my
best
performance
and
scored
full
marks
from
the
judges.
This
time
also
I'll
impress
the
general
public
who
will
vote
for
me
and
make
sure
that
they
will
give
me
full
marks
for
my
performance," said
Rakhi.
The
show
will
be
aired
on
an
entertainment
channel
'9X'.
Besides
Rakhi,
other
eight
participants
are
Prachi
Desai,
Hussain
Kuwajerwala,
Shweta
Tiwari,
Rozza
Catalano,
Sharad
Malhotra,
Ronit
Roy,
Rohit
Roy
and
Sachin
Pilgaonkar.
The
show
will
have
nine
teams
and
popular
faces
on
television
will
mentor
each
of
them.
Each
team
has
six
participants
-
one
celebrity
and
five
people
from
different
walks
of
life
including
housewives,
slum
dwelling
kids,
professional
dancers,
white-collar
executives
and
workers.
Popular
television
actress
Sakshi
Tanwar
and
Smriti
Irani
will
anchor
the
show
and
in
order
to
grab
the
eyeballs,
each
episode
will
have
a
performance
by
a
Bollywood
celebrity.
Unlike
the
other
shows,
the
winner
will
be
determined
by
public
votes.
"The
highlight
of
'Yeh
Hai
Jalwa' is
that
only
the
audience
will
decide
which
popular
television
actor
to
vote
for
and
which
one
to
vote
against
and
more
over
none
of
the
actor's
participating
in
this
programme
are
from
9X
channel,"
said
Shweta.
The
prize
money
for
the
mentor
is
Rs
20
lakhs
while
each
of
the
winning
teammates
will
walk
away
with
a
cash
prize
of
Rs
1
lakh
each.
