Jjhoom India Finale ResultsIs it a Sham?

After 13 weeks of rigorous battling of voices, Jjhoom India finally declares a winner – Sachin Tyagi with his mentor Madhushree. Though the judges' marks given to both Sachin as well as Varun differed by just one point, Varun fell out of the league due to the audience polling. Varun lagged by more than a lakh of votes.

So was the whole affair really a sham? Seems likely, as the very fact that there was not much of a hullabaloo created when Sachin was eliminated initially and the audience had expected him to return through the wild card. The pattern suddenly changed after this stage, and Varun who was earlier tagged as the 'Unbreakable Varun', started losing on votes, even after consistent, great performances. Wonder what brought about this huge drop in public voting? So does this result of Sachin winning even come as a surprise?

But Varun did not seem too perturbed by the results as he says, “It doesn’t really matter to me as to who won or lost the competition. I just participated in the show to enjoy and that is what I did. I had a blast participating in the show. That’s all that mattered to me.” Speaking about the voting pattern employed in Jjhoom India Varun claims, “I have nothing to say about the voting pattern. There is nothing new about the method used and it is employed by all reality shows on television.”

Well it doesn’t seem Varun is disconcerted with the results but does this end the controversies behind “Reality Shows”? Doesn’t seem likely.
