Star show: Shah Rukh Khan in “Nach Baliye 3”

NEW DELHI: Shah Rukh Khan will light up the small screen by appearing in the eighth episode of “Nach Baliye 3” on Star Plus this Diwali.

With the Bollywood badshah’s much talked about film “Om Shanti Om” that also stars newcomer Deepika Padukone releasing this Friday, the contestants will go all out to impress the superstar with their performance on the title track of the film. Besides, each of them will dance to the tunes from the 1970s to prove that they can compete with yesteryears’ icons.

A showman to the core, Shah Rukh will regale the audience and even the contestants with his on-the-spot jig. The show will begin with a performance by co-anchors Tina and Hussain and then they will return to their original avatar as hosts. Karan and Amita will perform then to the evergreen song “Ek Main Aur Ek Tu….” that was picturised on Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh. Rakhi and Abhishek will perform to the song “Mil Gaya, Humko Saathi Mil Gaya…..” The judges as well as Shah Rukh will get down to the dance floor themselves to shake a leg or two. While Alexx will dress up as a hippy, his partner Shweta will come on stage with the make-up of Helen in her younger days. They will perform to the song “Duniya Mein….Logon Ko….”

Finally Aamir and Sanjeeda will dance to “Jai Jai Shiv Shankar….”
