An Indian Express report quoted a source as saying, “Keith and Rochelle could not get enough votes and so had to bow out of the competition. Ironically, their performance before the eviction got them a standing ovation. They had really worked hard and the improvement was there to see for everyone. It was just luck that the other contestants managed to get more votes, and so they had to exit the show. Along with the couple, the judges also got teary while bidding them goodbye.”

Nach Baliye 9 premiered last weekend and airs every Saturday and Sunday. Contestants Vishal Aditya Singh-Madhurima Tuli, Aly Goni-Natasa Stankovic, Urvashi Dholakia-Anuj Sachdeva, Shraddha Arya-Alam Makkar, Prince Narula-Yuvika Chaudhary, Anita Hassanandani-Rohit Reddy, Vindu Dara Singh-Dina Umarova, Shantanu Maheshwari-Nityani Shirke, Faisal Khan-Muskaan Kataria, Sourabh Raaj Jain-Riddhima Jain and Babita Phogat-Vivek Suhag remain in the competition after Keith and Rochelle’s exit.
