Karisma Kapoor is stepping into the world of reality TV with “India’s Best Dancer 4” on Sony TV. India Today has learned exclusively that she will be one of the judges for this season, making it her first time judging a reality show.
In the past, the show has had different judges. Malaika Arora judged Seasons 1 and 2, while Sonali Bendre was the judge for Season 3. This time, the show’s producers wanted a fresh face from Bollywood. Karisma Kapoor, known for her amazing dance performances and charming personality, seemed like the perfect fit. She is famous for her role in the movie “Dil Toh Pagal Hai,” where she showcased her dance talent.
Karisma was very happy and excited about this new opportunity. She eagerly accepted the offer to be a judge on the show, ready to bring her warmth and expertise to the contestants. This marks a new and exciting chapter in her career.

A source close to the show’s production shared that Sonali Bendre will not be coming back for India’s Best Dancer Season 4. This year, the production team did not reach out to her. Instead, they are in discussions with Karisma Kapoor, who is expected to sign her contract soon.
Although Karisma hasn’t officially signed the contract yet, she is excited about the offer and looks forward to joining the show. She is likely to serve as a judge alongside Geeta Kapoor and Terence Lewis.
