One of the most popular dance reality shows on television, Nach Baliye 3 will hit the screens on Star Plus today at 8pm .
Though the judges have not been announced yet, Subhash Ghai, Ishaa Koppikar and choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant are likely to be roped in.
Let us take a look at the 10 couples in the show:

Rakhi Sawant and Abhishek Awasthi
Rakhi and Abhishek first met on the sets of a shoot and later, during gym sessions and stunt classes.
Abhishek proposed to Rakhi in South Africa but she didn’t take him seriously. She finally said ‘yes’ during the celebrity reality show, Bigg Boss.
“Abhishek is not just a great dancer but a great cook as well,” Rakhi says. Incidentally, he had his own dance academy in Kanpur during his college days

Shweta Keswani and Alexx O’Neil
Shweta and Alexx first met at Mumbai’s J W Marriott hotel. Shwetha’s parents always wanted her to marry a Sindhi, but now, have an American for a prospective son-in-law.
“I have to first translate the lyrics to Alexx and then start rehearsals with him,” Shweta laughs.
But Alexx is now getting used to the jhatkaas and thumkaas.

Karan Patel and Amita Chandekar
Amita did not know Karan until she showed up at his place with one of his friends. They met often after that, and one day at a party, he asked her if she fancied the rest of her life with him.
The couple are currently shooting for the serial Kasturi together.

Shakti Kapoor and Shivangi Kapoor
They first meeting was a disaster because Shivangi saw Shakti in a wig with grey hair. Later, when he removed it, she found him very charming and fell in love with him.
“My wife and I are enjoying dancing with youngsters and hope the whole world will enjoy seeing us dance,” Shakti says, adding, “I am dancing with some of my friends’ children and my son’s friends are on this show. I hope they enjoy dancing with us too.”
Shakti and Shivangi are the oldest couple in the lot.

Vikas Sethi and Amita Sethi
They met each other for the first time in a club, and tied the knot soon after.

Vikas, meanwhile, is popular as Swayam, in Kahi To Hoga. He also stars in Kasauti Zindagii Kay.

Karan Grover and Kavita Kaushik
They first met at a hotel and later at a party. Karan offered her a drink and she asked him ‘Are you the bartender?’ They are still high on life.
