Yash and Gauri Tonk, the finalists of Nach Baliye 2, entered Nach Baliye Season 4 this week. We spoke with Gauri, who told us that she is very pleased with the warm welcome she and her husband received.

“On the first day, we sat with all the choreographers. They were very sweet and we got good comments from the judges. They told us that they wanted to see more dance in our performances. They were very warm. Our fans also called to tell us that they are watching the show only because of us.”


“Our co-contestants were aware that we were offered to join the show as wild card entrants. They are very sweet. But competition is competition and since we have accepted this show, now we are ready to face all criticism and stress,” Gauri, who is currently busy rehearsing, informed us.

“I enjoy dancing a lot and we never could say no to Nach because it is very close to our hearts. Last time too, when they asked us for a special performance, we did it, even though there was little time to practice. This time too, things are really hectic, though. We rehearse until 5am and only sleep for 3 hours. Yet Yash is very enthusiastic. He keeps asking me, ‘Shall we try this move?’”

“We are kind of obsessed with dance and are enjoying it too. We also have to take care that we should not repeat our concepts while performing. We are expecting to win this time.”

Gauri also mentioned that though her ex-contestants Hiten and Gauri are there, she misses the others - Hussain-Tina and Tanaaz Bakhtiyaar – and wishes that they were on the show too.
