The grand finale of dance show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9,
which airs tomorrow, is going to be a grand affair with superlative
dancers such as Shantanu Maheshwari, Salman Yusuff Khan and Teriya Magar
competing for the trophy. However, before you witness the drama unfold
on-screen, let us tell you that Nepali teenager Teriya Magar has been named the
winner of the show.
Teriya has won Dance India Dance before and came up with
spectacular performances the last few weeks. The decision will come as a huge surprise for Shantanu’s fans since he
was clearly the crowd’s favourite. Teriya was a wild card entrant and joined
the show along with Swasti Nitya, Spandan Chaturvedi and Gracy Goswami.
We also hear that Salman is the first runner-up and
Shantanu the second. The winner was adjudged by Farah Khan, Salman Khan and
Jacqueline Fernandez.
Teriya, is a student of St Lawrence High School, Vashi
and has won numerous awards. The power-packed performer won Dance India Dance

dancer.
In the past, a number of celebs including Mona Singh,
Prachi Desai, Baichung Bhutia, Meiyang Chang, Gurmeet Choudhary, Drashti Dhami,
Ashish Sharma and Faisal Khan have won Jhalak trophies.
We are sure that the 3 contestants this year set the
stage on fire. After all, all 3 have been part of big finales before. Salman
has won Dance India Dance Season 1 in the past and is a professional
choreographer. Shantanu, on the other hand, was part of the Desi Hoppers
