The popular dance reality show Super Dancers is under huge controversy. The dance reality show that also includes child contestants is under fire as the judges Shilpa Shetty, Anurag Basu, and Geeta Kapoor have been served with legal notice by The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR).

NCPR has also taken legal action against the makers of the dance reality show, the judges, and the channel Sony Entertainment Television (SET) under section 3 of CPCR, POCSO act 2012, among others over their behaviour.
