Talent, drama, tears, affection and ego clashes! Zee TV’s Ek Se Badhkar Ek certainly isn’t devoid of any action.

Making news this time is Abhishek Avasthi and Sumedha Karmahe. The two have found it tough to impress the judges Abhijeet and Ahmed Khan. In one of the episodes Sumedha broke down after Abhijeet lashed at her saying that Abhishek was the only performer between the two of them and she could no longer hinge on his performance for them to survive.

In the next episode, Sumedha chipped in with a brilliant performance and finally won praises from Abhijeet. There was more encouragement for Sumedha in the form of her partner Abhishek who wore a shirt with Sumedha’s picture printed on it.

When asked what prompted this, Abhishek replies, “She’s my partner and this is my way of including her in my dance. Other than that, I also wanted to encourage her and prove to her that I’m firmly behind her. I’m happy that she came up with a brilliant performance.”

While that’s a nice way to motivate your partner we wonder how Rakhi Sawant will react to her man’s innovative motivating ways.
