Young underwater dancer Jaydeep Gohil is ecstatic after garnering words of praise from Bollywood star Varun Dhawan.

Jaydeep has participated in the stay-home reality show "Entertainer No. 1", on which Varun is a mentor.

Praising Jaideep, the popular actor said: "It is extremely difficult to maintain balance and move the way he moves underwater. What amazes me is how effortless he makes the whole thing seem while holding his breath for so long. That is definitely a rare combination of talent, which needs recognition. I'd love to learn how to do this."

On his part, Jaideep is overwhelmed. "I am so glad that my talent is being recognised. This is a validation for all the hard work, determination and courage it took me to reach a stage where people have started appreciating my efforts. I am lucky to have found this unique talent where I can combine my passion for dance and swimming, and I would sure love to teach this to Varun Sir. That would be the biggest milestone of my life."

"Entertainer No. 1" was launched on Flipkart video in collaboration with Varun.
