TellyChakkar got in touch with the actor and asked him who is his motivation for the show and which dance style he doesn’t like to perform.

Shiv, you started your journey as a dancer before Roadies also you used to have a dancing school and back to back reality shows. Do you want to make a record in doing the shows?

One of the good things that you are getting back to back shows and there are so many people who are working here back to back. I am thankful for it and it’s a blessing. It’s like you are coming from a small city and learning different dance styles but then because of work it’s not possible and now I have got a chance now to learn different dance as our body doesn’t support. Our dancers are so flexible and we are having fun. I am getting to learn dance what else do I want.

Among the judges Malaika, Farah and Arshad whose judging according to you would be tight and strict?

I think it would be Farah Khan as she doesn’t think before she judges.

Which is the one dance style you would never want to try and the one which you enjoy doing?

I feel we have come here to learn. We are dancers who dance like no one is watching, but here to dance on beats is difficult as it’s just skips. But I am happy to learn these different dance forms.

Like how Shoaib has Dipika, who is your motivation for the show?

I felt bad and sad when Shoaib said that he wanted to win the show for Dipika. I realised that I also need someone in my life and I need to find someone. I have a lot of motivation and I have my mother. I am getting a new show and work and this the big thing in itself. 

Well, there is no doubt that the fans are super excited to watch Shiv on the show and that too in a new avtar.
