Just Dance is an Indian television dance-reality series on Star Plus. The series is judged by well-known Bollywood film actor Hrithik Roshan along with choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant and film director Farah Khan.

It premiered on 18 June 2011 at 9 PM in India and aired every Saturday and Sunday until 1 October 2011.
The 52 dancers were selected from India and outside of India. They were invited to Mumbai for further competition to select the top 12 dancers for the show. The top 12 contestants were decided for the show but due to some reasons, 13 dancers were selected.
