  • 0:42 Stop. HAMMERTIME!

  • oh.hot.daym.robert!

  • Robert looks like Sav from Degrassi.

  • omg its so beautiful. i remember when first watched this show on tv, i was amazed

  • i disagree i think Robert is more bollywood.. pls watch Bollywood songs.. men are manly like Robert and billy is doing great too but is a bit feminine..

  • I am indian too .. I think they were so good and fing sexy.. esp when they moved those hips.. they can give run to any bollywood hero..

    ppl cmting here don't understand that it is never going to be 100% bollywood cuz they are not trained like that and second that this is suppose to fusion of bollywood with western ..

    i want them to see dance india dance.. and these two are doing so much better than those dancers.. cuz D.I.D is just all abt gymnastics and acrobatics.. srsly check it out.

  • To all those that have been critisizing here: I am Indian and I think they did great! This is not Indian Classical Dance form but just as SYTYCD doesn't put BALLET in the hat (cause it takes years to learn), they don't put BharataNatyam/Odissi/Kathak in there. Cause they take years to learn and you can't do them justice in a matter of a week!!!!!

  • And Billy's knee is supposed to be injured. Oh God. He's really, really amazing.

  • billy was hoooooooooooooooooooooot OMG great 

  • They're really good dancers, but hey kinda screwed up the Bhangra dance in the middle.

  • both of them are amazing, but Billy's more precise moves give him an edge, Robert's extremely talented but i guess his height sometimes prevents him from being on-point all the time.

  • iNDIA IS SO SO RICH...WOW

  • absolutely amazing

  • I understand that the routines are not 100% Bollywood and that is many, many technique and less emotion. You should remember that this is not a bollywood-show, it's a dance show, a technical show. That's why the choreos are more technical han artistic. They cannot do the dance like indians, with many emotions and feelings and etc. because it's useless for them as contestants. They have to be technical,no matter what they're dancing.And Billy was more "Bollywood" than Robert. Billy-Best!

  • For me, Alex is the king of the season. He's the winner! [he would've won without question...bloody injury!] But after him, the best dancer is Billy. Great technique, great emotion! Can't belive he didn't won...at least the runner-up!

    Wich top is this?

  • Billy killed it from 0:48 to 0:50

  • Robert from 0:29-0:32 made me come on myself

  • Okay first of all , Robert and Billy were both good but Robert was just more noticeable . Robert was better at some places while Billy was better at other places so please stop criticizing them ! This routine looks sooooo difficult so they must have worked really hard for this to be a success . Yes this is not actual Bollywood dance but I enjoyed it anyway ! And yes I went OMG from 0:29-0:35 !

  • Oh God I loooooooooooooove bollywood soooooooo muuch!!! This is my 2nd favorite, Molly n Nathans being my 1st one n Clariece n Roberst being the 3rd one! Thank u Nakul for this amazing dances

  • ahhhh my brain doesnt go as fast as the music does..i get confused!!

  • awesum!

  • Choosing between Robert and Billy is like choosing between sweet and savoury...IMPOSSIBLE!

  • Yes, Nakul is totally misreresenting Bollywood. His choreography and costumes are not "Bollywood" at all. Bollywood dances are anything but technical. It's more about expressing yourself according to the music and lyrics. Nakul tries to give it a classical feel to it, which is COMPLETELY wrong and misleading. It's sad that SYTYCD doesn't realize this.

  • Nakul does the same moves again and again he sucks they need a new bollywood choreographer.

  • Just shut up and enjoy the dance. Jeez.

  • Did anyone else see 0:28 and go OH GOD~~

  • @PackOfWolves yes!<3

  • and billy's knee was hurt this week...ouch!

    

  • that looks like soooo much fun to dance to!

  • @starzangel89 they pick a style out of a hat, it's up to the choreographer to then create a routine that is in that style. if they put bollywood in the hat, it's not the producer's fault if the choreographer decided to create a dance that is more of a different style of dance.

  • 0:29 - 0:35 OH SWEET MERCIFUL JESUS

  • These two were under-rated the whole damn season! Robert and Billy were so damn versatile it was amazing!

  • gud atmpt.....al i cn sy!

  • Robert was awesommm.........

  • love dis..... the world started to catch indian styles f dancing........... :)

  • love this dancing....the energy they have is so lovely to watch, I wish i could join in

  • Comment removed

  • 1:08-1:20..awesome!!!!

  • Billy was so much better, he's loose and dancing with grace while Robert is stiff and his legs are too far apart. As an Indian, I feel Billy was having fun with it and quite convincing as a Bollywood dancer.

  • @naazdu I disagree. I felt that Robert was much better than Billy for much of the same reasons you didn't like him. It didn't look like Robert was having any less fun with it. Frankly he seemed more enthusiastic. I think if say Hrithik was asked to dance the same routine, he would do it much like Rob did.

  • @soccerdutchess exactly .

  • energy!

  • 0.28 is a KILLER DANCE!!!! I couldn't believe that I replayed this vid so many times LOL

  • They were great, but i cant believe the choreographer is indian. they did things i've never seen before in indian films.

  • India has many many traditional classical dance. Bharatnatyan, Kathan, Kathakalli, Gaudiya Nritya, Kuchipudi, Manipuri, Mohiniyattam, Odissi, Sattriya etc. Each of this takes years and years to practice and master. But the Mumbai movie Industry (Bollywood) does not have time for such detail specialization. So they basically take a little bit of this and a little bit of that, and improvise. They even take from abroad, hip hop etc. Its does not make Bollywood any less serious. Its fun.

  • @Citabria007

    On top of Indian Classical dance India also has many folk dance styles like Bangra, Garba,  Braj Bhoomi, Ghoomar, Kolattam:, RAAS, to name a few. Too many folk styles to mention them here. So Bollywood takes not only the Classical dance style of India, they also take Indian folk dance and improvise. Search for "Kajra Re" video on utube.

  • Robert KILLED this dance!!!!! Best Bollywood routine ever on the show!

  • you caucasian americans are gonna take all thats indian to america & do it better than us....

  • Is it just me or do these dudes look extremely funny doing this dance?

  • I really like Billy but I have to say that Robert was better in this dance.

  • whatever it was. I just luv it....nice attempt

  • billy looks so graceful..

  • robert wuhzz gettin it !

  • funny to see white guys doing indian dance :P they did a good job though

  • How intense ò__ó

  • ROBERT AND BILLY ARE FRICKEN AMAZING DANCERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • Bangra!!

    

  • @cikxai 

  • Really love this Robert and Billy ♥

  • Really love this Robert and Billy ♥

  • Billy was more into it then robert was

  • Comment removed

  • this is not really bollywood. but i loved the fact they were all in unison and that they were enjoying the dance. and there dance steps were pretty clean

  • This is definitely more Bharatanatyam

  • best bollywood performance on sytycd

  • I'm blown away by their strength and grace.

  • A new dance form that they can label 'gay bollywood'?

  • hey they looked so happy during dacing this i am happy to see that

  • i think this was pretty good though its not conventional bollywood in true sense... but much better than some other SYTYCD's attempts in Bollywood... !!!

    THUMBS UP IF U AGREE :)

  • For Christian's sake Robert is hot...........

  • this is not fu**in bollywood....bollywood is all abt facial expressions...body language....n eye to eye contact (when u r dancin as a couple)......

  • This looks like so much fun to dance! And yeah I love them both but Robert owned here.

  • Robert owned Billy in this routine. This was a huge game changer.

  • wew..billy show the true power^^ haha

  • I know its not completley bollywood but a fun dance :)

  • I have seen most of these dance steps in my village during pongal festivel.

  • That was flipping awesome!

  • 0:18 to 0:25 must've been super-hard!

  • /watch?v=I2tg1Kvhjy8

    watch this if u wanna watch real bollywood dance..badass!!

  • from 1:00 - 1:20 the song makes me giggle :) love it

  • it was rly good. but again, this is not bollywood. this more classical than bollywood. i think they need to watch some bollywood dances from the movies.

  • What are these guys doing? they look like stiff robots, very comical.

  • Too much contemporary moves in this to be considered Bollywood. But i still enjoyed it!

  • Robert hit everything harder than billy. i think that both of them were better then kent!

  • what is this song?

  • It's bharathanatyam mixed with moder moves,it's not Bollywood style

  • robert looked so hot doing bollyhood.....he was owning it

  • fuhh !! im speechless

  • i cant believe billy was elimated after this!

  • @twilightedward1100 because he got hurt!

  • This is a the same song and choreography as superstars of dance team India

  • One of the best Bollywood routines on the entire show(though there hasn't been much). Totally $hits on Jose's Bollywood routine earlier in the season where he got almost all the intricate hand and finger movements wrong, but the judges accepted, because it had "energy". Pfft.

  • wow that was really good.!!!

  • also, robert diserved to be in the top three, he danced his ass off. billy couldnt even hld his stances in this number and robert nailed every dance he ever did. He was one of the most versatile male dancers on the show going from contemporary to hip hop to bollywood he just nailed each dance. except for quickstep...no one seems to get it quite right

  • i honestly believe billy is a post-op male transgener. everytime i hear him talk, its like a woman is speaking. not trying to make fun of him but its defanitely a possibility

  • Billy shouldve at least made it to the top 3. In my opinion he was the best dancer followed by Lauren and then Kent.

  • @Clyde426 are you crazy, watching him dance next to robert was unbearable, robert totally owned him in this dance piece

  • @TheEclipseTrailer Maybe but also i feel bad for billy getting bollywood after his knee. But all in all i think Billy was better than robert

  • @Clyde426 sure billy had more flexibility than robet but all in all robert was more versatile when it came to dancing OTHER dances, billy wasnt so transitional as robert

  • What is the name of this song?

  • its not the dancers' fault.. they are doing a great job... the choreographer KUNAL DEV MAHAJAN is a jerk... he cannot differentiate classical from bollywood... he does not know indian dance forms AT ALL!!

  • Those knee squats jumps look like they would be painful!

  • I just want to mention that the Western world just generalizes all Indian styles of dancing as "Bollywood" - that's incorrect. Bollywood dancing is the type of dance you see in cinematic movies. This dance in particular is more Bharathanatyam than Bollywood dancing.

    I don't expect the judges to differentiate between the styles of dance - but I figure if they're gonna showcase more Indian dances, they should at least recognize some of them as not being so "Bollywood".

  • @starzangel89 So I guess they've never shown a true Bollywood dance in the show but Bharathanatyam style

  • @starzangel89 I get what your saying this is certainly more bharatnatyam styled than any other. But there are many other elements like bollywood as well as a little bhangra and thats what bollywood is a fusion of all the dances of India as well as western styles.. They did very well being foreigners and doing this dance

  • @laurenpyaar The thing is that the kind of dances that they do in Bollywood are nothing like this. Most modern Bollywood dance sequences have nothing to do with any classical forms of dance. Folk is still a big part of the dancing but it doesn't have any of these intricate hand movements that they keep doing in SYTYCD. I hope the show gets rid of Nakul Mahajan and hires someone who really understands the concept.

  • @bedibye813 Lol im well aware of what bollywood dances are like I was just trying to point out that bollywood is really a melting pot of all of the Indian dance styles as well as western styles. Im not really sure what you would categorize this as because it in not purely bharatnatyam or anything else. I agree Ive only liked one of the SYTYCD bollywood numbers

  • @starzangel89 Exactly. What they do at SYTYCD is all classical. Hardly bollywood.

  • @starzangel89 THANK YOU!!!!!! Well said!

  • @starzangel89 I know what you mean! I mean I love the fact that the show introduced it to an American audience, but they're simplifying the rich culture of dance in India by just mashing up various styles (mostly southern!!) and deeming it Bollywood. The combination of Persian dress and Bharathanatyam moves basically says: Oh well, it's all Indian anyway. Simplifying other cultures is convenient but dangerous!

  • @starzangel89 @gladitsmonday Bollywood movies feature classical indian dances, modern indian dances, folk dancing, and fusions of western dances. It can't be generalized into one specific style, region, or genre because it incorporates elemens of so many different styles such as Bharata Natyam and Bhangra. So they aren't generalzing, they are attempting to be inclusive of the many different elements that appear in Bollywood dance.

  • AHHHHHHHHHH!

    0:28 - 0:32

    DAYUM. 

  • i love them both

    but for this dance i think robert did better

  • i think theyre both great, but i have to admit robert did steal most of my attention, it probably helps that he looks kind of indian :)

  • looks dope, except, Billy just dropped into the ending pose, Robert shifted into it, smoothly.. although you can tell both were tired towards the middle of the dance, Billy was most noticeable..

    great piece of choreography, though..

  • billy WAS too good for sytycd..... plus its basically a popularity contest...

  • I'm surprised these two didn't kiss at the end

  • k what was with the female ass-volcanoe moves at 0:28

  • @LipSyncLover LOL it's SOOOOOOO hot! haha i love it! it's a nice touch! ;D

  • Billy's movement in this dance seem to be more feminine then Robert's, least in my opinion.

  • wow :)

  • my top3 is robert, adechike and cristina. WANT ROBERT TO WIN SO BAD

  • total girl move at 0:30 :)

  • @abster17 hehe, twas hot.

  • @abster17 haha! i thought that mood was HOT!

  • I found both of them great. I love how elegant Billy dances and the strenght of Robert. 2 great personnalities !

  • The finale should have been between BIlly Robert and Kent I would have been happy whoever won!(: not Lauren she bugged me so bad for some reason!

  • now i feel like watching a bollywood movie all over agn :)

  • 0:50 - 1:05 i love itttt

  • Robert with his tanned skin and dark hair looks very much Indian after applying Tilak on his forehead :D

  • thats the ganesh dance in a remix way

  • i think robert was the best dancer. HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE CHAMPION!!

  • robert deserved to win :'(

  • 0:30 , hmmh ;)

    <3

  • @lynnvryett *drools*

  • I hated it!

  • @blue4u89 then don't watch it! cuz i loved it!

  • their bharatnatyam is not done properly, i feel like the `bollywood`is too westernized.

  • @shalulu21

    have you seen a bollywood movie? they just shake their hips and do nothing...at least these guys used some REAL ancient indian styles. also they learned it in just a few days. Bharathnatyam dancers train for years!

  • Best Bolly wood this season!

  • billy is so sharp and swift!

  • ROBERT is amaaazzinggg

  • Billy looks like Kurt from gLee!

  • i think billy should of made it to the final 3.....

  • @Mari81R yeah billy and not lauren

  • Robert!!! i hope you win!!!

  • 0:30-0:33 ROBERT i love you!! so fantastic

  • MAN TURNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THEM

  • stupid question but does anyone possibly know the name of the song =P

  • @TheTrueDarkness99 Its Ganesh from Bombay Dreams

  • Comment removed

  • 0:27 - 0:34 lol

  • @caitlynmae2012 so hot!

  • i love this video

  • I love the look on Billy's face at 0:32 to 0:34!! LOVE IT! LOVE HIM AND LOVE ROBERT!

  • I'll definately say... Robert was serious about it but it put alot a enthusiasm in it.. Billy had fun with it but also put enthusiasm it in! I think they both did a great job!

  • :28 to:33. OMG Robert you are the sexiest man I've ever seen in sequins!!! What a beautiful man with a beautiful smile. OH...and an amazing dancer!

  • @oh4peetsake Lol. Totally agree. At first I was a bit unsure about all the sequins and cheesy smiles, but this is Bollywood. He did so well.... Robert FTW

  • This looks like a classical TAMIL Dance mixed with modern moves. I would not call this Bollywood, it had more bharanatyium moves I would say. I LOVED IT!

  • its not tamil dance its called Baratanatyyam. Its the oldest indian classical dance and it is tamil nadu dance.

  • @westltt

    if you see older movies, they will have a lot more classical and indian folk moves. The movies now have lots of hip-hop and latin dancing, so they cannot do those things. Nor can they just shake their hips and look pretty as many bollywood actors do today because this is an actual DANCE show.

    quite frankly you cannot categorize anything as bollywood or anything not as bollywood because bollywood is just a mix of everything.

  • @desidol22

    Agree with you 100%! It's good to see someone else thinks this way :)

  • @westltt Yeah. SYTYCD kinda just generalizes all Indian style dances as Bollywood. -_-

  • @BKillaCaliPhan Well, that's what Bollywood is, if you think about it. It incorporates Bhangra in movies like Dil Bole Hadippa, classical dance in movies like Devdas, and Hip hop and Jazz in most of the new movies and in older movies like Dil to Pagal Hai, etc.

    When it comes down to it, bollywood is a film genre, not a dance style. Thus, bollywood dancing is the type of dancing which is featured in bollywood movies; all of the above are included.

  • @westltt I LOVED IT TO THE CORE..GREAT STUFF !!!!
