It's after nearly three months of anxiety, sleepless nights and intense training that the aspirants of ‘Sunehri Taqdeer ki Topi' have left the grueling audition process behind.

It's time now to announce the ADBHUT 18 (OUTSTANDING 18) contestants who have made an impression on the masters Geeta Kapur, Terence Lewis and Remo D' Souza. All those hours of practice will be now rewarded with a chance to be on the coveted stage of Dance India Dance and dazzle the viewers with breathtaking performances.

The dream to dance to a song choreographed by the Masters; to hear the burst of applause by the audiences and to get a grand salute by Grandmaster Mithun Da might all be a real possibility for these lucky 18 contestants!

The much admired Masters of the show, Remo D'Souza, Geeta Kapoor and Terence Lewis are in Delhi today to announce the names of the ADBHUT 18 (OUTSTANDING 18) who have secured their places in their teams- ‘Remo Ke Rangeele', ‘Geeta Ki Gang' and ‘Terence ki Toli'.
