TV has become big in India. It's a medium many actors are trying their hands at," explained Mallika.

"This stint will help me connect with the average Indian. I've done films that have been for adults only, a family show is indeed a welcome change," confesses the sultry Sherawat. So just what is she going to bring on the show? " Terence Lewis and Javed Jaffery are well versed in dance. They know the technicalities of the art and will look at it from a certain angle, I'll judge the performanace from an audience point of view. What I'm looking for is the 'X-factor' in the contestants," she said.

Bollywood actress Mallika also maintained that her TV act will allow her fans and others to see her more often, which she believes is a good thing. So here's looking forward to some healthy interaction between judge Mallika and some talented dancers.
