I'm so excited for the gidha (esp since most non-desis don't know about it if they know about Punjabi dancing at all) - but I'm really wary of their song choices. Sean Paul's "Get Busy" is great to do gidha to (from my personal experience), but we'll see how they pull of "Arab Money".....

The giddha performance should have an actual man in traditional Arab clothing tossing bills in the air. That would be folk.

What if one of the women just ties a chunni around her head and then makes it rain on the rest of the group with dollar bills? That should count.

I thought that only happened in fantasies.

Very folk. Ladies should also do that "ayiyiyiyiyiyiiiii" thing they do at Arab weddings.

Bollywood can't even do bhangra right, how the F can we expect that ABDC will? Shahid kapoor playing dhol with dandiya sticks on the cover of new movie "Dil Bole Hadippa", people..........

how is this a bollywood challenge if they're not using "bollywood" songs?!?

I just hope they don't ruin the diff dance forms...especially giddha.

Ugh, I found out that the choreographer that's helping them is Nakul Dev Mahajan. He's the same choreographer that helped do the Bollywood dances on So You Think You Can Dance and on Superstars of Dance - I can't stand his choreography. Now I'm not as excited.

MM's pretty much only using one step which they call the 'diagonal' in their routine. The monkees are my favorite crew rite now, but this shit's gonna be wack as hell to watch...
