Format
The couples dance each week in a pre-recorded show that airs on weekends. The judges score each performance out of ten, and the couples are then ranked according to these scores. The public is also invited to vote for their favorite couples using the SonyLIV app between 9:30 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. IST. The judges' scores and public votes are combined in a 50:50 ratio.

The bottom-two couples perform a dance-off named  Last Chance to Dance  in the following week's episode. Based solely on this performance, each judge gives scores to the couple. The couple with the lower total is eliminated, while the one with the higher scores is safe. If it is their only performance, those scores are added to the scorecard; otherwise, they are discarded.
