Super Dancer 5 Crowns 2 Winners with ₹10 Lakh Each; Indian Idol 16 Premieres Oct 18

Look, reality TV finales can sometimes be predictable. But not this one. Super Dancer 5 just did something that’s never happened before in the show’s entire history.

They crowned two winners. Yeah, you read that right. Two champions. Aadhyayasree Upadhyay and Sukriti Paul are the joint winners, both lifting the coveted trophy on October 13, 2025.

And the prize? It wasn’t split. Each of them walked away with a massive cash prize of ₹10 lakh. On top of that, they got exclusive gifts from the show’s sponsors. Talk about a historic grand finale.

A Truly Star-Studded Night

The finale was an absolute spectacle. The six finalists, including Apsara, Aditi, Somansh, and Namish, gave some electrifying performances. But the judging panel had a little extra star power too.

Bollywood legend Govinda joined the regular judges Shilpa Shetty, Geeta Kapoor, and Marzi Pestonji to make the final call. The official Instagram handle for the channel put it perfectly: “Our Divas won the show and our hearts!”

These winners aren’t new to the stage, by the way. 9-year-old Aadhyayasree Upadhyay from Assam was already a winner of ‘Dance India Dance Li’l Masters’ 2022. And Sukriti Paul from West Bengal was a finalist in ‘Dance Bangla Dance’ Season 12. These two were destined for greatness.

But What Happens Now?

So, with Super Dancer 5 wrapping up in such a memorable way, you might be wondering what’s next for that primetime slot. Well, there’s no waiting around.

Sony TV is rolling right into its next big thing. Get ready for a whole new season of music, because Indian Idol Season 16 is scheduled to premiere.

Mark your calendars. The new season is set to kick off on October 18, 2025, completely taking over the slot left by the dance show.

One epic show ends, and another one begins. That’s how it works. So, are you switching from dancing shoes to microphones? Let us know if you’ll be watching!
