The judges of the celebrity dance reality show ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’,- Arshad Warsi, and Malaika Arora, were left stunned with the performance of wrestler Sangeeta Phogat on the famous track ‘Chikni Chameli’.

Adding to the compliments, Arshad shared: “You're such a sweet and lovely dancer; when you start dancing, for a few seconds, we are just stunned. The cuteness within you is reflected in your movements. No matter how you do it, you look very endearing to us. Very sweet.”

“Superb choreography; Vivek, you do it so well. The way you choreograph according to the nature and personality of the celebrity, it's a different kind of joy. I really enjoyed it. Well done,” he added.
