I think that singers should remain singers and not try to take other roles. It is strange to see the winner of Indian Idol 1 to come out and host a season, it destroys the whole claim-to-fame concept of Indian Idol. Similarly, Prajakta is too mellow to do this hosting thing, according to me, she should do what she is good at, that is of-course singing.
I was not happy previously as well to see Maiyang Chang hosting Indian Idol, although he did a fairly good job, but he cannot come up to the level of Hussain. For me, Indian Idol is incomplete withouth the pair of Hussain and Mini. They are truely professional hosts and they know their job.
Indian Idol is such a big brand now, its hosting task should not be given away to amateurs just for the sake that they will improve with time. It is not an easy job and not everyone can be a good host. The managing team should realize this fact and bring the charm of Indian Idol back with Hussain and Mini.

I think they chose Abhijeet and Prajakta because the producers wanted the cast of the show to be full of musicians! And of course, ex-contestants can understand the new batch of contestants more easily.

I think Abhijeet's hosting is not upto scratch - he seems forced and unnatural in front of the camera.

But I loved Pajakta - she has a great voice and delivers her lines with confidence. Matching up to Mini Mathur is not an easy task, though!

Anyway, it seems like both Abhijeet and Prajakta will be kicked out and Hussain brought in. However, it would have been nice to have a co-anchor with Hussain - it adds more chemistry!

may b abhijeet lacks in some cases as he is not in to this hosting profession and basically he's a singer so i wud give him 8 of 10.He's much decent and gives natural xprssions than others

prajakta is good too.

but yah have to say abt Emon b'coz for the kolkata audition he chose some of the best talents from rural places.

Hussain and Mini were obviously excellent as hosts, they added a little spunk of their own to the show. Last year, Chang (surprisingly) made a good pair with Hussain, and they were able to carry off the show with the right amount of grace. On the other hand, having Deepali on board as host went down the drain and was quite a disappointment during auditions.

So far, Abhijeet and Prajakta seem fine. Abhijeet is a nice, sweet guy ... and his simplicity seeps through not matter what he does. Prajakta is also doing fine, but sometimes hits a few nerves here and there. Obviously they aren't professionals, and we need to give them time to improve.

However, once the gala rounds start and the show 'really' starts, we need a proper, professional host. Having past contestants host isn't going to cut it anymore. It worked out for Chang, but it does not mean it'll work for everyone as well. I think a host is really important to the show because it brings the show more credibility. Ryan Seacrest has been hosting American Idol for all its seasons now, it gives the show a little oomph, a little something to look forward to.

And I hate seeing ex-contestants as mere hosts in the show, ESPECIALLY the first Idol himself, it makes it seem like there's not room for progress, no way to go onto bigger and better things and the contestants are just stuck to this platform, without any external success. And although that may be true, Indian Idol producers could do a little better to save their image.
