Purdue Di Shaan still exists? I thought they died off. I haven't seem them compete since R2B2 2010.

Predictions...cuz someone should do it for this fun sounding but non-bid competition.

B O L L Y W O O D
UIC Nazaara - brand new team this year...so prolly won't be outstanding, but some teams like arizona were good their first year so you never know...but don't have grand expectations.

WU Chaahat - new name for washu's team, that showed potential last year at BB. staying closer to home this year. i hear they are are much cleaner this year which is a big step in the right direction. possible they could dethrown defending winners anubhav.

Northwestern A-NU-Bhav - won last year. prolly repeat looking at who they are up against.

F U S I O N
American Born Desi Crew (ABDC) - only fusion team here with boys on it (coed i believe). so they have an advantage in energy, stunts, general awesomeness that are boys fusion teams, but maybe won't have the super-cleanliness that all girls teams often have. they'll stand out as the newer kind of fusion team (aka not a bunch of girls doing classical mixed with garba and hip-hop). so they could take this category.

Northwestern Deeva Dance Troupe -all girls but don't know much else. prolly be real clean, as classically trained girls are... which often judges seem to place above all else, but see above comment about ABDC.

Chicago Dhamaal - they were good two years ago and very precise (all girls again), but once again not the most exciting nor crowd pleasing.

Buckeye Fusion - two years ago, they weren't anywhere near Dhamaal's level, but just starting out. like most newer teams, prolly improving every year.

B H A N G R A (i'm not gonna pretend to know anything about these bhangra teams).
Northwestern Bhangra
Purdue Di Shaan
GW Bhangra
GU Jawani

category winner predictions:
Film - ANUBhav (maybe Chaahat)
Fusion -ABDC (if they can be clean and syncronized)...if not, Dhamaal.
Bhangra -???

overall placing:
1. ANUBhav (everyone loves a film team-unless they're up against someone like broadstreet...and by everyone i mean judges)
2. fusion team winner
3. Bhangra team...let's face it...only a superb bhangra team (like UIUC) can win an overall vs fusion and film teams.

For real, WU Chaahat is going to blow up this year... into a lot of competitions and cleaner than any Wash U team before it. Def keep an eye out for them!

B O L L Y W O O D
UIC Nazaara - New team? Not much to say. See them going to Tufaan ...

WU Chaahat - I'm excited to hear about WU Chaahat, heard they are very good this year! Don't let me down!

Northwestern A-NU-Bhav - Were great at Phillyfest, let's see if they've cleaned up since....

F U S I O N

American Born Desi Crew (ABDC) - .... New team? I haven't seen you on any other line-ups...

Northwestern Deeva Dance Troupe - They remind me of NYU Nasha...All girls, clean, and crisp moves...

Chicago Dhamaal - Saw them at TMP about 3 months away from this competition hopefully they have cleaned up; they weren't that bad then so I bet they are ready for this now!

Buckeye Fusion - I'm excited to hear how you guys do!

B H A N G R A --- I don't follow bhangra sorry

Bollywood: A-Nu-Bhav
Fusion: Dhamaal
Bhangra:....Purdue?

Overall: A-Nu-Bhav

My predictions:

BOLLYWOOD: NU Anubhav
FUSION: Chicago Dhamaal/Buckeye Fusion
BHANGRA: Northwestern Bhangra

As for bhangra, there's not really much to say, all these teams have not showcased at big competitions such as Bayside bhangra, bhangra blowout etc. so it will be interesting to see if any of these teams are worth a shot at a bigdog competition..

So Aa Dekhen Zara board decided to 'randomly' decide the show order here it is:

1. Anubhav
2. UIC Dhamaal
3. Purdue Di Shaan
4. ABDC
5. Buckeye fusion
6. UIC Nazaara
7. Jawani
8. Northwestern Deeva Troupe
9. GW Bhangara
10. UW Chahaat
11. NW Bhangra

Thoughts?

I wouldn't rule out Buckeye Fusion. If they've improved they're cleanliness from UTK last year they'll be tough to beat. Phenomenal energy.

That sucks, I only am familiar with A-NU-Bhav, UIC Dhamaal, Buckeye Fusion & GW Bhangra.
How did they pick this show order?
I bet this gives teams in the first half a better run for preparation though..
