    "It felt great to break all the records and win the 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' Dance Marathon. I really wanted this and I didn't realise I had won in the first place and was the last one on the stage as I was so engrossed in dancing. It was a great feeling and winning at this point of the competition is very motivating,” Shamita said in a statement.
