When we don't judge Meghna with sympathy, when we don't support Tia for her cuteness, why should we bring Yashraj down because we think he has attitude issues? Yashraj is a good singer, in fact, he is one of the better ones of the lot. I'd prefer a good arrogant singer on the show over a bad modest singer, because in the end, the show focuses on singing. And we shouldn't forget that!
Two things about Yashraj ...
1) If you don't support Yashraj because of that Youtube video you watched online of some show, let me just say this. We all have seen reality shows and we know how low they will stoop for TRPs. Even if all of that was true, Yashraj is quite young right now ... I think 19. In that case, he was even younger at the time. What does a teenage boy know about love? Secondly, just because the girl was involved does not automatically mean that Yashraj was at fault. So without knowing the whole truth, how can we make judgments about him then?
2) As far as his overconfidence goes, I already see an improvement. It may all be a farce, he may just be trying to sound modest, but at least he's trying. He's been on TV before, he knows he's good and better of the lot, and he knows he's has it in him. People like that always go through up and downs ---- fame gets to everyone's head. And hopefully he'll learn soon and bring himself back down to earth.
Having said that, at this point in the competition. We are only looking for GOOD SINGERS. That is it. We need to pick the best singers of the lot regardless of other things. When we have say our Top Six ... and they are ALL great singers, yes, then you can look at things beyond singing. When all the singers are good, then you can focus on other things that contribute to a good Idol. And then we can bring in personality, and good looks, and levels of cuteness, and other X-factors. But as of right now, its ONLY singing. And Yashraj has proved himself time and again. He has a really nice voice, and his singing is higher up than a lot of the other singers that are on the show right now.
Not to start another debate here, but more than Yashraj, it was Asit who was getting on my nerves. GOOD LOOKING? ... excuse me? From what angle exactly? Thank God he's out. Bad singing + bad attitude = bye bye.
Now folks calm down and stop giving Yashraj unnecessary publicity. I hope you realize that by bashing him and criticizing him you have created even more fans than he had before. So kudos to all of you guys ...
