Well, Abhi you are biased towards Toshi! 😆 😆

They had done big production of Ishmit getting sick as if he was on his death bed. They constantly bring in Pundits to do astrology on contestents and they also show various prayers and whatnot being done for some contestent to win. So donot single out just Toshi.

Anyways all the best to Toshi. He is extremely talented and versatile singer and will do good for himself 👏 👏

Can someone please confirm if Priyani got voted off today as I donot see any live updates today? 😭 😭 😭 I donot get it how she could go so quickly. Ashpreet and Priyani should still have been here!

Priyani is voted out . Toshi is a Good singer but not the greatest to have a Chief Minister of a State comment about him.

Priyani & Arshpreet are better singers and the hype is being created to bringback Toshi to VOI.

Interesting topic Kabhi...😊

I guess,gajji must have been extremely insecure about producing his own show and in a new channel.And channels do dictate terms to evenbig producers like balaji telefilms.

Well if he is confident about his project, and he has the reputation of over 15 years to back him up, why should he be insecure to start with?

my only hope is that next season,he will have courage to do what he believed in from the time he started the show in 1992.

Hasn't his own belief changed since 1992? We saw how much it changed in 2005, and 2006. I can cut slack for C2005, but what about the EMAET show? Or for that matter Lil champs, hadn't the quality of the format already deteriorated since 1992? In that case what did he believe in - which format? Hasn't he come a long way since then?

what i dont understand is why he is singled out every time..there must be some reason for people to believe that all other producers are beyond reproach.
Is he the villain of the Tv industry?..

No he is not the villain of the TV industry. But he is the pioneer of musical reality shows and theerfore expectations out of him to deliver better are more. He made a lot of tall claims and false promises at the beginning of the show, but so many of those promises have been compromised on since then. The drama, the TRP gimmicks, they all contradict his show theme.

And viewers have to right to question when they don't get the package they were promised.

coming to the show
there is no star power on this show(all the people are almost has beens)
the show started late and goes head on with a show which is HIS own creation and brainchild(the irony!!)

But he walked out with his creme dela creme group. Shaan, the biggest star attraction came with him so did many of the other crews. Most importantly he got the #1 Channel as the platform to start the show. Despite that, he couldn't encash on this. That again shows that a better planning was required. He was the mastermind for the earlier show. So when he left, everyone assumed that the other show would surely flop, and I guess he along with his production team may have also felt that and therefore they went all out without proper drawing board planning to tackle the other show head on. What this show lacked out is proper planning and execution.

he doesnt have the money power of a TV channel producing the show,or the biggest producer in the world,Freemantle giving them brand and dollar power..

Star TV is supposed to be doing pretty well for itself. And he is a Star employee isn't he? No show is a one man show, but a result of a group effort with someone leading the group effectively. And he is proving not so good a leader.

still the show is doing pretty well.I think it is a proud achievement..

The show is failing to meet the TRP ratings. That does speak of the public's dissatisfaction at the outcomes. The show may have some good talents, but it is the other frills which has pulled the show down in the TRP scale.

this is my POW,others may of course disagree...

I agree with you kabhi more on the Toshi part. Why did he have to say sorry. Does this means he is accepting that Toshi elimination was done by hook & crook?😉 That he did not follow public verdict and himself did some creativity to create the hype.

Abhi isnt it speculations that we are making..seriously in this day and age,if a singer is going to have dozens of shows(in front of thousands and the media) for a month and a half in 3 countries(including S.Africa)Do you think no one would come to know??

we have to have some faith ..i choose to believe shaan when he took "geetha ki kasam".will a producer risk the wrath of the judges,for manipulating them for lining his pockets-who likes to be emotionaly taken for a ride..OR are all of them soulless?

or should we believe that these people from the music industry are more oscar worthy than our actors..

when did Gajji lose his self respect,dignity..during C2005,little champs..or now with VoI...

AND IF he has lost it then who does still have it in the TV industry?


The staged drama in C-2005, EMAET, LIL champs and now SVOI, do you think it just happened? Gajendra Singh was the Captain of the show and he was aware of the publics pulse and he encashed on it totally...it worked. He is trying the same again. To play with the sentiments of the public and collect cool revenue.

A show that promised there will be no compromise on singing, what will happen if Toshi is brought back? Will that not be a compromise? Will it be fair to the other contestants remaining or the ones who got eliminated. Can you guarantee and tell if those dharnas and burnt effigies are not ploys to stir public sentiments? How can we believe, we have been had by these gimmicks so many times before.

Alkaji walking out and walking back right in, you think it really was the actual fact? We all knew she was going to perform in multiple concerts abroad. Had he told that to anyone? They used to give interviews at the drop of a hat, how come this valid point was missed out?

Where was his sense of justice when Ashpreet was eliminated? Was she a inferior singer than Toshi, then?

The main fact is these reality shows are all depending on too much drama and some take the public to be too gullible. Well we are to an extent but, not always. He being the father of the musical shows should behave more responsibly and set an example.

I am not sure what dramas Gajji is playing..the show is loosing audience and TRP ratings are down. I even doubt whether Gajji will be there for next SVOI.

I agree with kabhi. I too feltt the protests were nicely shot in closeups. Protests should first go to nwspaper/news channels not just this channel.
He thinks public is dumb, bcoz most of the rurals dont discern a show this way.

Are thoda timings change karo show ka, sab kuch teek ho jayega.
I agree with other poster too. He thought SRGMP would b a flop. But no one is indispensible.
And Yes, I think MDs are acing too. They get a huge lumpsome amount for thes show. And these shows get money via TRP/SMS. neither = no money.
