Nach Baliye and Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa have similar content and presentation but there are minor differences in the concept.

The celebrity dancers on Nach Baliye are real life couples, and work with an assigned choreographer.

A notice at the end of the show verifies that the Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa is indeed a version of Dancing With The Stars.
