The recent season of Sony TV's popular dance reality show, Super Dancer 3, came to an end with an exciting finale. Kolkata's Rupsa Batabya was announced the winner of Super Dancer Chapter 3 and was awarded a trophy and a cash prize of ₹15 lakh. Her dance guru Nishant Bhat was awarded ₹5 lakh as well. Other contestants who made it to the finale were Tejas Sharma, Saksham Sharma, Gourav Sarwan, and Jaishree Gogoi. Tejas Sharma was announced as the first runner up.
Rupsa was popular for her expressions and was also one of the favourite contestants amongst the judges Shilpa Shetty Kundra, Geeta Kapur and Anurag Basu who were in awe of this talented girl. In a recently released article, her mother stated that the show has helped her become confident and an expressive performer, who was earlier quite shy.
Talking about the same, the winner Rupsa said, "It feels really nice and I am very happy to have won the trophy of Super Dancer Chapter 3. I will continue dancing because I love it. I look forward to going home, to Kolkata, and celebrating with my entire family." Her guru Nishant Bhat added, "I still remember, when I was paired with Rupsa, I was perplexed. She is only 6 years old. So it proved to be a learning ground for me from becoming friends with her to identifying her strengths as a dancer, to working according to her moods, to building that chemistry together and many other things. It took time, but I am glad we could establish a bond. She doesn’t speak much, but her dancing does all the talking. She is a gifted child and extremely hardworking. I wish her the best in all that the future holds for her!"
Each finalist was awarded a Certificate of Appreciation along with the cheque of 1 lakh each. Additionally, the Top 5 finalists were awarded a cheque of 1 lakh each from the show sponsor Lotus Herbals. Besides the contestants, judge Shilpa Shetty Kundra also performed to four different songs and presented a Bharatnatyam performance.
