Hardeep-- just wanted to drop in and say thank you for the live stream bud!
Maybe speaking for many bhangra vets here-- haven't been to a Bhangra comp in so long-- so being able to watch one of the most iconic competitions in real time last night was such a pleasure.
Mine:

Best 3 songs of all time (dance floor banger): Tera Yaar Bolda, Dupatta Tera Sat Rang Da, Apna Punjab

best team out there right now... dancer talent from 1st to last jodi, grace, music choice, set dynamic, straight audience captivation... australia has something brewing
This team and Bhangre De Shokeen... 2 soon to be heavy hitters. Raw folk talent bhangra is back and as a buddah vet I couldn't be happier.... now i wanna see a rivalry...
ALSO shoutout to all captains of both squads aka SEPBC fam :)
I danced for AEG a few times in college... the problems that existed in 2011 still exist today... the focus needs to shift from showing off some supplemental aesthetic element of a set to teaching your dancers fundamentals of bhangra... you could beat these teams you lose to simply by accepting...
I really think less regulation is better for growth and creativity. Which is why I'm so opposed to this shit. It's basic free market theory... you absolutely cannot have an overlord like this in a dance that's designed to be boundless.
