Chak Dhoom Dhoom –Team Challenge took the competition out of the studio to scout for the best dancing
sensation across the globe. After sitting through innumerable auditions and intense initial screening the
esteemed jury members – Bollywood Diva Mallika Sherawat, Dancing Legend Jaaved Jaaferi and Ace
Contemporary Dancer Terence Lewis handpicked 30 deserving groups. These chosen few will face some
more music and dance, at the Mega Round in Mumbai to search for an outstanding ‘Team’. They will be
judged on the basis of their choreography, timing, synchronization, team effort and appeal.
According to Ashvini Yardi, Head-Programming, COLORS, “The success of season one of Chak
Dhoom Dhoom inspired us to launch the second season with some freshness in the format and unlike last
season, this time, it's age no bar. We're looking at teams with age groups that may vary from six to sixty
or even beyond. The idea to come up with a team challenge came to us while we were holding auditions
for India’s Got Talent. During the auditions, we saw a lot of teams coming and performing a group dance.
Since we already had a dance brand - Chak Dhoom Dhoom, we decided to provide a platform for all
these dancing groups and came up with a new season with a new look and a great new panel of some very
accomplished judges."
The auditions which were held across Baroda, Lucknow, Kolkata, Delhi and Mumbai in India and Dubai,
New Jersey, Dallas, Bay View and London internationally, have identified some splendid talent across
the globe and it will be a treat to watch these talent compete on the same platform this season. All the
three judges are amazed with the talent they have seen across and are already looking forward to teams
presenting different forms of dance like Cha Cha Cha, Hip Hop, Salsa, Tango, Jazz, locking and Popping to
Bhangra, Kathak and Lavni.
Mallika Sherawat who will make her television debut with Chak Dhoom Dhoom- Team Challenge
talks about her experience during the auditions, “I believe that if you have talent, you can achieve almost
anything. I came from a small town in Haryana and look where I am today. All one needs is some hard
work and lots of determination. I am looking forward to see these talented people put their best foot
forward in the show. As far as the question goes about who I’m rooting for? It has to be the girls! There
smart, they’re gorgeous and they can make men dance on to their tunes! Jaaved Jaaferi who is considered
to be the ‘Baap’ of different formats of dance says “There’s so much to learn from everyone who comes
on this stage that I hope by the end of the show, I get to take back something from the contestants. There
are tiny tots who vow you with their dedication and golden oldies who make you wish you have that kind
of enthusiasm left in you when the sun is setting in your own life”. According to the King of contemporary
dance, Terrence Lewis, “It is interesting to see different teams performing difficult feat and breath-taking
steps and I am really anxious to see how they outdo each other in the show.”
Pravesh Rana, who hosted the last season of Chak Dhoom Dhoom, will be seen hosting this season
as well. The last season of Chak Dhoom Dhoom was exclusively a Children’s Dance Reality show and
Pravesh struck a good rapport with the audience.
According to Deepak Dhar, Managing Director, Endemol India, “At Endemol it’s our constant
endeavor to create innovative programmes that excites viewers across various sections. After a successful
first season we are delighted to launch the second season of Chak Dhoom Dhoom. We are happy with
the amazing dancing talent we have got on the show and some of them are making waves everywhere in
the world. With the launch of Second Season, we are taking this partnership to another level and bring in
talent from not just the country but globally”.
