Exclusive! Vivek Dahiya On Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 Being Biased, “It's A Business At The End Of The Day”

Vivek Dahiya JDJ 1

Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa season 11 is currently airing on Sony TV and many TV and Bollywood celebs have participated in the dance reality show. Vivek Dahiya was also a part of show, but was eliminated recently. He lost the Last Chance to Dance by just three points. Recently, Filmibeat interacted with Vivek and spoke to him about his journey in the show and more.

When asked him that on social media people say that the show is biased towards some contestants like Tanisha Mukerji, and others, Vivek took a pause and said, "Is it time to be diplomatic or real? Oh my god!"

He further said, "It's a business at the end of the day. They have got to do what is required to make a successful show and to make a larger audience watch it. We all have a journey and we all play protagonist in our own life. It is very difficult to put yourself aside, to be selfless, and think about another contestant whom you are competing with. When I watch everyone's VT, where we all saw what is the world that they came from whether its Tanisha, Karuna ji or Sangeeta, everyone, and you are like wow. They all are celebrities. It is very difficult to judge how much effort one is putting in. On the outside, it might look like they are having it easy, but you don't know where they hail from and what their story has been. Sometimes we may feel dejected that somebody else is getting the preferences, but there must be some goodwill that they have earned to reach there. If somebody is having an 'x' amount of following and because of that they are getting advantage, I feel they have worked hard for that following."

"It's the matter of perception like how do you see that; you want to give them credit for that or you want purely judge them on the basis of how they perform. That is a call the channel has to take and again it's a subjective, some channels will say we will only judge the performance. For example, the last performance I got eliminated on. I got eliminated because Sangeeta's act's genre was comedy and it was a far more entertaining act. There were two ways of judging it, one who danced more, it's a dance show, and the another way is who gave more entertainment. Now, there's no right or wrong here. While I was upset and heartbroken, today when I look at it I think it's a matter of a channel's vision. So, this is all I am saying that it is for them to decide where they want to take the show, how they want to bring in the audience and how they want to be remembered as," the actor added.

Vivek's journey in JDJ 11 was loved by his fans, and after his elimination, they have been quite upset.
