Actor Upen Patel, who will shake a leg with his girlfriend Karishma Tanna in the upcoming dance based reality show "Nach Baliye 7", says its a great chance for him to "emote romance".

"'Nach Baliye' is a great show and I'm very excited to be a part of it this season. So far, I have done only action and drama and 'Nach Baliye' is a great platform to emote romance and also shake a leg while at it," Upen, who was seen in movies like "36 China Town" and "Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani", said in a statement.

"As for Karishma, it's an added advantage as we get to spend more time with each other for the next few months. We are both very competitive so, we are both going to try our best to win this show by working hard and with true dedication," he added.

Apart from the "Bigg Boss 8" fame couple, "Nach Baliye 7" will also feature Neha Saxena and Shakti Arora, who are already getting "goosebumps" upon their entry.

"Yes, we are finally a part of 'Nach Baliye 7'. We are extremely excited and stressed at the same time. We are having goosebumps, but its really good," Shakti said.

Married for three years, Rashmi Desai and Nandish Sandhu are the next couple to be seen together on the dancing stage after their stint in "Khatron Ke Khiladi Darr Ka Blockbuster Returns".

Apart from them, "Nach Baliye 7" will also include Amruta Khanvilkar and Himanshoo Malhotra.

"'Nach Baliye' has always been one of my favourite shows on television. I always used to be an avid follower of the show and I always wanted to be a part of this show and am quite excited to be part of it. The show will push me and take me more close to different forms of dance," Amruta said.
