Mumbai: Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha, who is currently in Australia to take part in actor Hrithik Roshan's music tour - A Night With Stars Reloaded, says she is missing her judging duties on the popular dance reality show "Nach Baliye 8".
After Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's Da-Bangg tour, Sonakshi will take part in Hrithik's tour. Hence, she will not appear on the show this weekend. Actress Malaika Arora Khan is seen as a ‘Guest Judge' on Sonakshi's behalf on the Star Plus show.
"I really missed everyone. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it this week. My bad luck, I wasn't there to watch them (the contestants) perform. But I am sure they must have given all spectacular performances. I'll be back next week," Sonakshi said in a statement.
Malaika, who filled in for Sonakshi on the show, had also served as a judge in the first two seasons.
She said: "Anything for dear Sonakshi and for ‘Nach Baliye'. It was homecoming for me and I was more than happy to relive old ‘Nach' days. It's a pleasure to watch the brilliant couples sizzle on stage."
Season 8 of Nach Baliye is having popular TV jodis like, Divyanka Tripathi-Vivek Dahiya, Sanaya Irani-Mohit Sehgal, Bharti Singh-Harsh Limbachiyaa, Dipika-Shoaib Ibrahim, Abigail Pande-Sanam Johar, Monalisa Antra-Vikrant Rajpoot and Aashka Goradia-Brent Goble.
Show is currently judged by Malaika Arora Khan, Terence Lewis and Mohit Suri. TV actor Karan Tacker and Upasna Singh are hosting the show.
