I don't have that much knowledge about music so maybe wrong. Buy felt so
Well the female voce is generally an octave higher, then its the sound engineer's job to make sure we can hear both equally. But it wasn't the volume I am talking about.
Arunita is stronger in terms of pitch, tone, expressions. She is just a stronger singer and her voice hits me right in the feels. She makes me feel the emotions she is singing with. So in that terms I meant her being better.
Otherwise singers like Sunidhi have also done live duets with tenor males, there's never been an issue. Even Neha Bhasin and Ankush and Hemant Brijwasi and Bhoomi Trivedi in IPML have not had a problem...in both cases the females sang lower than the males.
