Rithvik Dhanjani's 'high heels' moment for TV show
Following in the footsteps of actor Arjun Kapoor, who was seen wearing heels in the popular song "High heels" from the romantic drama film "Ki & Ka", actor Rithvik Dhanjani will be seen shaking a leg wearing heelson the dance reality show "So You Think You Can Dance 'Ab India ki Baari'".
It so happened that Bollywood's dancing diva Madhuri Dixit, and actress Mouni Roy, who is co-hosting the show along with Rithvik, challenged him to perform like a girl wearing heels.
Rithvik accepted the challenge and donned three inches of heels to dance to the song "Aaj raat ka scene banale".
"It was all in the moment and when Madhuri ma'am challenged me, how could I say no. If our contestant Tushar Shetty can do it, I could also give it a shot. It was fun to dance in heels and personally I love dancing."
"I am happy that everyone enjoyed my 'heel dance', especially Madhuri ma'am," Rithvik said in a statement.
Madhuri is seen as a judge on the &TV show along with choreographers Bosco Martis and Terence Lewis.

'Mary Kom' hairstylist helps Sandeep Anand for bald look
Sandeep Anand, who keeps undergoing makeovers for his look in popular TV show "May I come in Madam?", will next be seen in a bald avatar. The actor's new look has been designed by Jitendra Mhatre, who worked on National Award winning actress Priyanka Chopra's bald look in the 2014 film "Mary Kom".
"To get into the bald get-up for 12 hours is a pain for any actor. It took almost three hours to get into the look. One has to remove the bald wig in a few hours or else it can lead to serious problems, but as an actor we don't follow such restrictions," Sandeep, who plays Sajan in the show, said in a statement.
"I got a few scratches near my neck but the outcome of this episode is hilarious. So, no regrets or pain. I am happy that I took up this challenge and did it," he added.
"May I come in Madam?", aired on Life OK, also features Neha Pendse and Sapna Sikarwar.
