The music reality show Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is in full swing and has been keeping the Bengali audience happy on the weekend. Amid this, the audition of the dance reality show Dance Bangla Dance started. The auditions will take place in Darjeeling on October 25 and Siliguri on October 27. 

The 13th season of Dance Bangla Dance will begin in 2025. It is heard that the show will start in March or April. Before that, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa will be the main focus of Zee Bangla. Right now, there is no competition from the contesting channels in non-fiction shows. 

Srabanti Chatterjee, Subhasree Ganguly, and Mouni Roy were caught together in a frame last week. It triggered speculations about Dance Bangla Dance. These three were the judges in the last season. Puja Banerjee replaced Mouni at one point. 

Dance Bangla Dance started its journey in 2007 and Mithun Chakraborty was the Mahaguru, i.e. grand judge, in the show. He has been in the role since the show’s inception and was in most of the seasons. For some time in between, the connection loosened, but he reprised his role in last season. However, the makers are worried about his health. Mithun might not be a part of this season. He has been ailing for some time and received the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in a broken hand. 

Who will replace Mithun then? It is speculated that Dev might be in the seat. He has a family relationship with the show’s director Abhijit Sen. Dev previously took part in dance reality shows but in other channels. This is still a speculation and only time will tell what will happen. 

The audition announcement said that any competitor over the age of four years could take part. Solo, duet, and group dancers can take part. After the audition, the shooting will start at the beginning of 2025.
