Personal touch important, says host Ravi Dubey

TV actor Ravi Dubey, who is replacing Mohit Malhotra as the host of "India's Dancing Superstar", says he will make sure he establishes a personal connect with the contestants, judges and audience as it makes the job of an anchor easier.

"A host is someone who becomes a middle ground between everybody. The entire flow of the show goes through the host. So I am going to focus on interpersonal relationship," the 29-year-old told IANS.

He will co-host the show with Aishwarya Sakhuja, and he believes establishing a personal bond comes in more handy than skills of professional anchoring at such platforms. This will be his first attempt at hosting a reality show, however, he has earlier participated in dance-based reality show "Nach Baliye".

Ravi will be seen on the Star Plus show starting June 1.
