Govinda is another high energy guest who is very sporting and livens up the whole show. Due to Partner releasing both Salman and Govinda went on competing shows to promote the movie. Both have high energy and good sense of humor. Am starting to wonder is Partner really worth 1 out of 10 rating as Jeegs indicated. :-). I am curious to find out and hence will try to get hold of Partner soon. As far as Ankita goes, she has confidence and has potential to be a good performer along with singer. Look at her dance as well as sing with Govinda. It takes confidence not to be overwhelmed by the moment. My bets are on her. (I can hear Leena going Tsskkkk).

Mussarat is a pakistani singer who sings well and has Himesh as his mentor in the show. But Himesh wants him to sing in 1 style only (that of Rahat Fateh Ali Khan). Whereas other people on the show want him to show some versatility. As you can see Himesh-bhai became quite FURIOUS in the show. What he needs is a "Jhaadu Ki Jhappi" :-) (Note: not Jadoo).
