Jacqueline Fernandez has been roped in as the celebrity guest for Jhalak Dikhhla 9 and now we have some of the pairings as well. This year the makers have roped in some truly strong contestants who can give a huge fight to each other. Some of the noted names are Shakti Arora, Arjun Bijlani, Shantanu Maheshwari, Helly Shah, Surveen Chawla, Nora Fatehi, Siddhant Gupta and Karishma Tanna. Some other names in the pipeline are Siddharth Nigam, Mandana Karimi and Tejaswi Prakash Wayagankar.

Shantanu Maheshwari who is noted for his dancing prowess will shake a leg with his ex-co-star dancer-actress Alisha Singh.The actor is very popular with youngsters and shares a good rapport with Alisha.

The beautiful Nora Fatehi will dance with Cornel Rodrigues. We have seen her sultry moves in many films and Nora will surely add oomph to the stage. These two come from a dancing background and should be the strongest contestants.

However, Shakti Arora and Arjun Bijlani, especially the latter performs regularly at shows. Suchitra Sawant will partner Shakti while Bhawna Khanduja will teach Arjun how to groove with more finesse.

Jai Kumar Nair, who is one of the best in the business, has been paired with Helly Shah. We guess makers want her to stay on the show for a long time given her fan base.

Rajit Dev will teach the moves to Karishma Tanna. This is the lady’s second reality show with Colors after Bigg Boss.

The sexy Surveen Chawla has Sanam Johar as her partner. Siddhant Gupta will be partnering Pranali.
