Basically, Siddesh has a style, class and purpose to the way he dances...especially this style of dance which comes so naturally to him. He's a natural entertainer that way.
Totally agree. I'm not a fan of this guy but when it comes to his dancing, can't fault him...those three are the best words to describe his dancing style without a doubt.

I honestly don't think that it was the wrong theme for Dharmesh though. I actually think that THIS in
fact was the right theme for Dharmesh. Dharmesh's dance style is just
too unique that way to really "fit" into a particular style of dance.
It's too freestyle. WIth Prince, Dharmesh looks like an 'uncle-ji' to me honestly. π Prince is just too awesome in his own style for Dharmesh to match up in my honest opinion. Because Dharmesh's style isn't exactly locking and popping either. It's just
freestyle hip-hop with that Bollywood/tapori entertainment aspect mixed
in. π So I think that's more in tune with Siddesh's style. Plus Dharmesh and
Siddesh just have such an awesome chemistry together that they really had to do a takkar together. π
Though yeah, Parvez would've been a good choice to takkar with Siddesh too.
But then, he might not have had that chemistry with Siddesh that
Dharmesh had. Since Dharmesh and Siddesh have performed together in the
past too...and they just know each other better in general too.
@bold: Excellent point. Dharmesh's style can't be defined as just hip-hop...it appears to be more freestyle because he puts in a lot bollywood tadkas/tricks into it to give it an edge...so by that respect, it is deffo understandable why they put him in the bollywood round...he CAN do bollywood nautanki quite well too as we've seen in many of his performances.
But Siddesh's bollywood style trumped it all cuz this guy's expressions firstly are far superior and COMBINED with that he DANCED superbly as well...didn't miss any beat...sharp, clear movements and so PERFECTLY timed with each expression change, each nautanki bit...THAT is what made for such an enjoyable performance...
I agree with the point someone made about Dharmesh's choreography not being as good as the one for Siddesh too cuz I saw that in some bits it was like Dharmesh was just doing timepass steps like that one DID-2 ka standard step they always do to sliding a hand down one arm and shaking out a "v" or something...he could have added better steps to his choreography. Dharmesh dances very well, of that there is no doubt in anyone's mind...but in this case, the sheer ADAA that Siddesh brought to his performance could not be matched by Dharmesh. And that adaa includes BOTH dancing as well as expressions.
Regarding the point about Parvez...yes he could have been brought in for this round too cuz his expressions are better than Dharmesh...but even then I think Siddesh would have beat him too...Siddesh's dancing is more nuanced and he can outdo almost anyone in nautanki as we well knowπ...Parvez has fab expressions but Siddesh level ke expressions nahin hain I think...somewhere Siddesh's years of experience as dancer also give him the edge...I think Remo said it best...this guy knows just when to give the subtlest of expressions or the loud ones based on the beat...he's very good at that and that is what stands out so much when you watch him dance especially when he's in his element in a full on nautanki Bollywood actπ
