Watch out for Season 5 of the contest, for which auditions have already begun.

Submerge“ Those who danced were thought to be insane by those who couldn’ t hear the music. And those who made the music loved the insanity that they saw. If God was a DJ what a party this world would be,” shouted DJ Clement profoundly over the loud, hypnotic numbers he was mixing for Submerge groupies. Enter Fuga and you will be amazed by the palpable energy and the hypnotic electronic dance music belting out of the speakers. A club with a name that literally translates to‘ escape’, it is a favourite amongst the city’ s club hoppers for a great unwinding dance-athon. To become a part of the Submerge forum or to get more information visit www. submerge. in Sundays at Fuga(# 1, Nagarjuna Building, Castle Street, Ph: 41478624, 41511880) with DJ Pearl, DJ / RJ Nikhil Chinappa and / or DJ Clement playing the best of House and Electronic. Price: Rs 1000 cover charge for a couple
Bollywood Night You may love it, you may hate it, but you certainly can’ t ignore it. The city is smitten by the Bollywood magic and one night a week Indi gives you the opportunity to let your hair down, pretend you’ re a leading lady in a Hindi movie and gyrate to the spicy jattak-mattak numbers, signature of our Hindi flicks. To add to the experience, there’ s even a large plasma TV showing songs from popular films, in case you run out of dance steps as well as Bollywood-ishtyle drinks christened after blockbuster movies. Every Friday at Indi( 4th Floor, Garuda Mall, Magrath Road, Ph: 41126661) with DJ Preed or DJ Rolly at the helm; entry is free and the 3 Idiots Mojito is a must-try.
Rock & Retro Night If an old-fashioned English-style bar with tall bar stools and great retro tunes is your thing, then Firangi Paani on Fridays is the ideal watering hole for you. The foot tapping music from the 70’ s and the 80’ s will keep you grooving on the tiny dance floor all night long( or at least until 11pm). So bring in the weekend at a hip colonial setting of mahogany woodwork and oldfashioned lamps while you enjoy the nostalgic beats of Uptown Girl. Watch out though – the dent in your pocket here can be pretty sizeable. Dance a jig down memory lane at Firangi Paani( 2nd Floor, Forum Mall, Hosur Main Road, Ph: 22067831) every Friday with DJ Rocky. Entry is free.
Ladies Night Ladies …. strap on those dancing shoes, ditch those boyfriends, grab your girlfriends and head to The Beach for some mid-week therapy. Ladies night is when you get treated like a queen— free drinks( up to 9.30pm), sing-along music and a night of unadulterated girlie fun. Additional incentive: if you want to take the male species along, he gets in for free. Head to the Beach( 100Ft. Road, Indiranagar, Ph: 41261114) every Wednesday, where DJ Nash will spin his Hip Hop and R & B tunes to get the party started.
