'Flirty Dancing' Episode 5: Navi and Mark send sparks flying after their romantic dance routine
Do you believe that a blind-date can turn into love? Well, these singles on 'Flirty Dancing' sure might agree.
'Flirty Dancing' returned on Saturday night for its two-hour finale, with Jenna Dewan back as the matchmaker trying to find two singles their potential forever love. The series describes itself as "part performance, part blind date".
Two singles who are looking for love are matched with two potential partners each. These singles will not know anything about each other and will learn two choreographed routines to perform with each potential partner. They will meet for the first time only when they perform.
This week, 39-year-old Navi, an executive assistant, is looking for true love and hoping that Jenna will help her find who she's looking for. Navi shares that her parents had an arranged marriage and have been living happily together for over 40 years.
She is a trained Indian classical dancer who is looking for an adventurous and athletic guy who she can spend the rest of her life with.
Navi shared that romance and dance go hand in hand, and she can't wait to see who Jenna chooses for her. The potential matches Jenna found for Navi were 41-year-old Tarun and 35-year-old Mark.
Tarun is an author, whose parents have also been married for over 40 years. He is looking for someone with a free spirit and believes that chemistry is important.
Mark, a professional baseball player who later had to hang up his gloves and head into finance, is looking for someone who he can spend the rest of his life with and look back at this moment together.
Jenna brought in Jonathan RaDavid to choreograph both dances and help teach Navi and her potential partners the dance. Though she was nervous, Navi was ready to go meet her potential partners and see if magic happens.
Dancing in Olvera Street, it was the perfect backdrop for love. Navi's first dance was with Tarun, and despite both of them being nervous about not knowing head or tail about each other, it was like magic when they met on the dance floor.
The chemistry between them clicked and Navi definitely had a hard decision set up for her. For the second dance, Mark and Navi danced the night away to Pink's 'Walk Me Home'.
From the time they laid eyes on each other, sparks started to fly and one could clearly see the emotions they portrayed while dancing. They were lost into each other. Navi definitely had her work cut out for her.
Both men had particular qualities that Navi was looking for. But at the end of the night, Navi decided to go on a second date with Mark and see where that takes them. After their second date, Mark and Navi revealed that this definitely wouldn't be the last and we can't help but be happy for the couple.
