Hrithik Roshan gets into Punjabi mode on TV show
Mumbai, Aug 10 (IANS) Hrithik Roshan was so floored by the talent on dance reality TV show “Dance+ Season 2″ that he felt impelled to get on to the stage and groove to Punjabi beats.
Hrithik, who is known for his flexible dance moves, became part of the Star Plus show to promote his forthcoming film “Mohenjo Daro” along with Pooja Hegde.
After seeing performance by Delhi-based The Urban Singh Crew, the actor wore a turban and danced on the stage.
“I have never worn a turban in my life before. But I wore one on the stage of ‘Dance +’ because I’m stunned and moved by their performance on stage. I just couldn’t resist to shake a leg with them and get my Punjabi moves out on the stage,” Hrithik said in a statement.
The show features ace choreographer-filmmaker Remo D’souza as super judge in its second season. Shakti Mohan, Dharmesh Yelande and Punit Pathak are mentors in the show.

It’s not very often that a man gets his wife to dress him up and get him married too to another woman. But it has been made possible on the small screen.
For an upcoming wedding sequence in which his character will get married to Zeenat (Urvashi Sharma) in Zee TV show “Amma”, supermodel-turned-actor Shahwar got his real wife Marsela Ayesha to style him for his reel wedding.
Not only was Marsela part of all her husband’s reel wedding rituals, but she even helped Shahwar in selecting an outfit for it.
“It was fun shooting my on-screen wedding, and having my own wife present on the sets was definitely an icing on the cake. Marsela enjoyed every bit of it. She herself paid attention to the minutest details, and even helped me in the selection process of my wedding sherwani,” Shahwar said in a statement.
Marsela added: “I was extremely thrilled to be part of my husband’s on-screen wedding… Shahwar is looking dapper in his wedding attire in the show just like he did at our wedding. I will cherish this particular shoot for years to come.”
