Malaika back on Nach Baliye 8

Malaika Arora is coming back as a judge in a dance reality show. The dancing diva will be stepping into Sonakshi Sinha’s shoes as the judge of Nach Baliye 8 for the next few episodes. The replacement has happened due to Sonakshi’s choc-a-bloc schedule with back-to-back concerts – first with Salman Khan’s Da-Bangg tour and now with Hrithik Roshan in South Africa. This isn’t Malaika’s debut on Nach Baliye. She was one of the first judges of Nach Baliye, before taking over other reality shows like Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa and India’s Got Talent. Malaika has already shot an episode, where the team of Half Girlfriend, Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor were present to promote their film. The director of Half Girlfriend, Mohit Suri is already on the judges’ panel at the show. The situation became ironic when Sonakshi’s ex-boyfriend Arjun Kapoor was standing between her and the current girlfriend Malaika, according to rumours. The rumours are that this move by the dance show team is temporary and they would get Sonakshi back on the judge’s panel, once she meets her commitments.
