Indian Idol Runner-up Amit Paul wows Raleigh crowd in India Fest, 2008
Amit Paul made it big in Indian Idol, becoming the heart throb of millions, creating a huge fan following not only in India but all over the globe. And true to his style, he wowed the audience in Raleigh with his mesmerizing voice.
Due to bad weather conditions, Amit's flight to Raleigh was delayed and he was not able to perform with the band on Saturday, March 8, as scheduled. However, on his arrival after an arduous fourteen hour wait at JFK, NY airport, Amit Paul was in high spirits and said he was ready to entertain Raleigh! (For more details Click here)
While the Raleigh crowd was left totally satiated, there has been some disappointment back home as he hasn't been seen on the show for over two weeks, K for Kishore where he is a participant. He is supposed to be recuperating from a severe throat ailment, a condition which made his doctors advise him complete bed rest.
While Raleigh enjoyed the melody of his voice, K for Kishore hasn't been able to hear his voice for the last two weeks in a row. Is there a connection somewhere? We leave that for the readers to make a guess!!!

I was there too ... AIt was loads of fun! And yeah Barnali, please correct it to North Carolina.
Funny how I just got PM'ed asking about the details of the show and later today I see this article on TB.
Most of your article write-up looks suspiciously same as NavYug's website.

In the 14th March episode in K for Kishore they showed an AV of him really ill and one of the participants said that he was coughing out blood too. They were all praying for him in the temples.He was not there in the 7th and 8th March episodes too for the same reason as the doctors had adviced him complete throat rest and had confined im to bed rest. Then how did they give him permission to go for this overseas show... or was that illness not really an illness?
