Siddesh Pai got fame following dancing reality show Dance India Dance. Siddhesh has no formal training, but has worked as back dancer with some of Bollywood's best-known names.

Siddhesh feels proud that he has achieved everything on the basis of pure talent and assures us that he will please the audience with his performance on the show.

"There is a lot of talent in India, and I don't want any other talented person to be treated the way I was treated. My past experiences always worked as a self-motivating element for me. I can never forget that phase of my life because my talent was treated very badly during that time."

"Star Plus had approached me for this show because of my dancing talent. I decided to take it up because very soon I will be working in a big banner film and this show will be like a showcase of my talent for the viewers."
