RUPSA BATABYAL, WINNER, SUPER DANCER CHAPTER - 3
It feels really nice and I am very happy to have won the trophy of Super Dancer Chapter - 3. I will continue dancing because I love it. I look forward to going home, to Kolkata, and celebrating with my entire family.
NISHANT BHATT, SUPER GURU, SUPER DANCER CHAPTER – 3
“I still remember, when I was paired with Rupsa, I was perplexed. She is only 6 years old. So it proved to be a learning ground for me – from becoming friends with her to identifying her strengths as a dancer, to working according to her moods, to building that chemistry together and many other things. It took time, but I am glad we could establish a bond. She doesn’t speak much, but her dancing does all the talking. She is a gifted child and extremely hardworking. I wish her the best in all that the future holds for her!”
SHILPA SHETTY KUNDRA, SUPER JUDGE, SUPER DANCER CHAPTER - 3
“She deserves this victory. The way she performed week after week was really incredible. I am blessed that as judges, we could become a catalyst in her journey.”
GEETA KAPOOR, SUPER JUDGE, SUPER DANCER CHAPTER - 3
“I am the happiest right now as her journey and her hardwork has paid off. I just want her to be happy and continue what she is doing right now as she is too small to be pushed at something specific. She needs to enjoy what she is doing.”
ANURAG BASU, SUPER JUDGE, SUPER DANCER CHAPTER – 3
“Rupsa is a versatile dancer who has tried all different types of dance forms on this platform. Honestly, her journey has just begun.
