The show will see celebrities and trained dancers performing.

Produced by SOL Productions, the show will be shot in South Africa. It will test the levels of endurance and determination of each contestant to go from good to great.

The contestants will be challenged to prove their mettle as 'Extreme Dance Ke Heroes' and to rise above all odds.
