Yet another dance reality show titled Dancing Queen is set to launch on Colors. Viewers may have already noticed the promos of the show on air. But due to the ongoing strike there is ambiguity regarding the launch date. The show is unique in its format as it is based on item numbers and will have some of the most popular item girls participating.

A source informed, “The format of this show is such that there will be ten jodis competing with each other. Each jodi will have one common girl and one item girl. Among the item girls, Sanober Kabir, Shweta Menon and Rakhi Sawant are some of the participants. Kashmeera Shah has also been approached but her participation in the show is not yet confirmed. Of the commoners, Alina of Bigg Boss 2 fame and her twin sister Sana will be participating in the show. Small time model Moon Das who was in the news for her boyfriend committing suicide after killing her mother and uncle, will also be a part of this show as a participant. Among the ten commoners, one of the participants is a former bar dancer.”

Elaborating on the format, the source added, “Rakhi Sawant and her partner will enter the show through the wild card. The first two episodes will be non-elimination episodes but from the third episode onwards, one pair will get eliminated each week.”

As far as the judges are concerned, the source informs, “The production house, SOL is in talks with Hema Malini to judge the show and there are strong chances of her being a part of this show as a judge. Mithun Chakraborty has also been approached for the same.”

Talking to Tellychakkar Hema Malini informed, “I have yet not signed on the dotted line. But I am considering it.” If Hema Malini accepts this show, it will be her foray into reality shows as a judge.

The shoot for Dancing Queen was scheduled to begin from November 20th but due to the strike, it has been delayed. Now the shoot as well as the launch of the show remains uncertain.

Fazeela, the co-producer of SOL preferred not to comment on the show.
