Making her television debut as judge on the show, actor Lara Dutta said, “Dance has been an integral part of my life and career and so have the relationships. Real life connections are the key to High Fever, and the contestants will have to express their respective relationships through the unique lens of various dance styles. I will see these two things as a driving force for me to judge the performances. I am extremely excited about my TV debut with such a promising concept and a platform like &TV. I hope the audience will enjoy this unique blend of dance with diverse duos and wholeheartedly support my new stint.”

Most people consider dance to be just about the steps and rhythm, but it is also something that needs to be felt from within. Being a choreographer, while I’ll keep a close eye on the technicalities, I am also looking forward to some amazing chemistry between the jodis. I am certain that the show will be loved by the audience owing to its distinctive concept.”

Talking about her debut in the Indian entertainment industry, Dana Alexa said, “I have travelled the world to pursue my passion towards dancing and I am happy to have had the opportunity to come to India to judge High Fever… Dance Ka NayaTevar.

I am looking forward to seeing such diversity on the show as well. I hope the Indian audience will love me for my talent and my love towards dance.
