The hosts of the show were two popular faces of the entertainment industry Karan Wahi and Rithvik Dhanjani . Priyanka enters the stage citing a short poem ( Shayari ) Urdu Poetry -- ' ' Jo desh ka guroor ban jaye , andhere mein noor ban jaye , jiski kasmein khakar mar mite janta , wohi hota hai ek asli superstar . ' ' It can be translated as - ' ' Anyone who aspires to be a superstar becomes a pride of the nation and a shining light in the darkness . S / he reaches a stage of respect when the common man starts worshipping him / her . ' ' And then she performed a sizzling number ' ' Desi Girl ' ' from her super hit movie Dostana . She lovingly tells that Karan Johar 's Dharma ( religion ) and Karma ( work ) , both are films , and Rohit Shetty 's name has ' ' hit ' ' hidden in it . Entry of Johar too was magical when he states in a filmy style that ' ' Supertars are not born , they are created by the KJo Magic ' ' and he dances to the tunes of ' ' Dil Chori Saada Ho Gaya . ' ' Shetty enters with a bang on a prototype of a car and shouts ' ' Lights , camera , action ' ' and both of them state that history will be created with this show . They also state that from Monday , the 20 contestants will enter the ' ' Superstars Academy ' ' where they will receive training in voice modulation , acting , choreography , dancing and various other aspects of a film which will make them a complete superstar . They will also have to face challenges every day , and between Mondays to Fridays , they will be in the academy preparing themselves for the gala performances to be presented on Saturdays and Sundays .

The next performance was by Natasha Bharadwaj and Shariq Nanda and they explored the life after the marriage for Suri ji and Tani ji in the Sharukh Khan Blockbuster movie Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi . The melodramatic performance of the act was appreciated by Shetty and Johar .

The first act of the evening started with a bang , with the performance of Mehrotra and Bharadwaj .

Bharadwaj played the role of the mother ( originally played by Sridevi ) and Mehrotra played the role of the father ( originally played by Amitabh Bacchan .

Kangana Ranaut appeared on the show on the tunes of her popular song ' ' Banno tera sweater ' ' from her award - winning film Tanu Weds Manu Returns as a special guest . It seemed that the personal differences between her and Johar are getting dissolved and both are again exploring the opportunities of strengthening their friendship . In Johar 's show Koffee with Karan , Ranaut had put allegations pertaining to nepotism and giving break only to the offspring of stalwarts from the film fraternity . Ranaut stated during the show that Johar brings in the glamour quotient to any show . Johar took it sportingly and stated that he is a fan of Ranaut 's work . Shetty stated that it 's surprising that they have not yet worked together , however she is a brilliant performer . In the first act for the evening was loosely based on the theme of Eklavya from Mahabharat . Bharadwaj played the role of an aspiring boxer Amrita , and Ahlawat was portrayed as the boxing Guru who urges her to lose her final fight so that his disciple can win .

This slice of life act had some good comic moments and the dance sequence with contemporary dance moves was amazing . Mehrotra got sixteen and Prajapati got the same score for the act . The third act of the evening was presented by Bahl and Prakash . The essence of the act of ' ' Atithi Devo Bhavo ' ' ( Guests are God ) was portrayed very nicely by the actors . Bahl reminded the audience of Aamir Khan from his iconic film Ghulam when he personified a rowdy of Mumbai donning the profession of an auto rickshaw driver . Bahl got a score of fourteen and Prakash got thirteen with a strong feedback to work on her acting skills . Shetty stated that her portrayal of an NRI girl looked quite caricaturish . Obsessive passion was the essence of the fourth act for the evening . It was presented by Taluja and Sharma . The negative shades of the character of Taluja reminded the audiences of many movies like Raavan and his courage to play the role of an antagonist was appreciated by the judges . Sharma 's performance had the undertone of Sita 's character from Ramayan and her strong dance on the popular song ' ' Rakth Charit ' ' mesmerized the audience . Taluja got a high score of seventeen and Sharma got eighteen . Sharma 's mom was overwhelmed with her daughter 's performance . Sharma thanked Ranaut for being an inspiration for actors like her . The next act brought the feelings of a girl next door , ( played by Vyas ) who is waiting for her boyfriend ( Gandotra ) to propose to her . Prakash and Mehrotra played the supporting roles of the friends of this duo . Unfortunately Gandotra got the lowest score of twelve for this act and Vyas managed to get the same score .

The various aspects of the lives of all the performers were presented as audio visual clips in the background .

Singh got a moderate score of fifteen . Bhasin played the role of a married housewife , and Nanda played the role of a frustrated husband in the third act of the evening .

Also keep on reminding her , how much you care for her and destiny has brought them together . Then Rithvik mentioned that he has learnt romance from Rohit Shetty 's films .

Then Angela mentioned that lately Wahi is closer to Dhanjani , and he is seen kissing men , not women . What is the reason behind this transformation ? They also blamed Ahmed for being very strict while he is made the captain of the academy . There were clips shown from the academy days trying to prove her point .
