Akash और Raktim का Masterpiece Act| India’s Best Dancer 2| Geeta Kapoor, Malaika Arora,Terence Lewis

[@annkuthakur564]

I love how masculinity isn’t compromised for sake of representation and that’s what that makes this performance so so so special. It’s sexy, it’s subtle and speaks volumes without being loud. Very well done indeed. Love this !!!!

[@surabhibharati3073]

It was hot.. it was supremely sexy.. I loved the sexual undertone and the restraint. Kudos to the dancers, the production, the person who conceptualised it. Amazing amazing .

[@annkuthakur564]

@@surabhibharati3073 yes the Restraint !! That’s the word. It built up the tension and was so obvious without being obvious. Definitely a superior act all together!

This is not a first act to represent LGBTQ community ,but if you have seen, It's mostly a sad act like a reality check of how things are in society.. so this was a breath of fresh air! Hope there are more representations like this in future and not to mention the choreography was so outstanding!! Hats off guys!!!

yessss...so happy..finally...breaking streotypes..this act can be very educational..and terence was aboolutely correct..very progressive act and this act was a celebration instead of a sympathy garner and the representation was very much needed and in a way that there is nothing to be ashamed of and we should be proud of who we r..

[@nikitamodak2247]

Best act of this season.. Never seen something like this .. you need lots of guts to show something like this especially on television.. from vision to execution every thing was so perfect.. it needs lots of courage as a choreographers to think something out of the box.. and needs more courage for artist to perform on it.. they deserve all the appreciation.. take a bow Tushar Akash Aryan Raktim and team.. you guys have made an historic act.. Watched this so many and going to watch this again and again..

[@akshaymankar554]

I could not stop myself from shouting through the video. The act took care of such details and portrayed the passion & the rawness. I felt it when their lips touched and one dancer moved his face over the abs of the other. The realness, I felt represented and my feelings felt validated. Such amazing performance, I am falling short of words. Faith in art restored, thank you!

[@pradhumnrathore7602]

👍🌈❤️

[@mimis.5139]

So True the rawness made it more burning in desire

[@raya5156]

True

[@usersYT]

Their lips didn't touch though. And definitely choreographers won't tell them to do that as they will uncomfortable (doesn't matter which gender). That same step has been done many times in diff performances. It's close but not touched. Baaki ka comment yess 💯💯💯

[@tanishahalder9632]

This act is literally so good...they legit made it a blast...and it's really a good example for showcasing the LGBTQ community by celebrating the fact that two men can feel what opposite genders feel towards each other.

[@pratikshamajee3262]

absolutely..

[@bhoomigoyal4767]

There are thousands of acts on this song but this was on another level. When Geeta maa said PATH BREAKING she didn't lie. Hats off to Aryan and all the team who choreographed this song. Around of applause to Akash and Raktim who did it mindblowingly. Tbh I don't even have words.

This was the most beautiful performance I have ever seen on TV. Two men dancing freely, celebrating love with no toxic notions of what masculinity should be. Huge applause to both Akaash, Raktim and the choreographers Aryan and Tushar. I usually cringe at Indian mainstream TV where LGBTQA topics are handled most crudely. This was so surprisingly magnificent. Bravo bravo!

[@najimuddinislam9]

IBD has really a teaching aspects. Last season Mukul and Pratik did a performance on gay relationship. But this time Raktim and Akash just nailed it. No sympathy or no tragedy. They just performed as normal couple which is really appreciated. Kudos to them and obviously to Aryan and Tushar.

[@pratikshamajee3262]

yess..mukul pratik showed what happens due to the taboos and people making choices influenced by society even when their heart says something else..this felt like a sequel where it's a celebration and acceptance and no more giving a damn about what society thinks and being proud of who they are..just loved it..

[@ranipanit87]

the act was amazing...the concept was really good...I think we need more performances like this......India's best dancer is a huge platform and it can be a huge educative platform too...breaking the stereotypes and help ppl learn slowly and easily through such acts....amazing.....

[@pratikshamajee3262]

absolutely..it is very progressive and can be very educational..about time such an act happened..so happy tushar and aryan thought of showing this through raktim and akash

Ain’t getting over this performance any time soon. Akash what are you mannn??!! Couldn’t take my eyes off you even for a fraction of a second. You’re beyond amazing.
