Manisha was not impressive at all...Nasal and below average...How can she survive wk after wk...😳

i agree with your analysis. Meghna was the best girl in Gala 2, I mentioned it there also. Similiarly I do not find Shivam-Rakesh-Yahraj at all impressive. i would much rather Swaroop won.

Many poeple like Shivam a lot here, I liked him in his auditions but not now.

Manisha deserved to be out because her gala perofrmances have been average-bad. Yes she should ahev been out the weke before. Even Yashraj deserves the same fate. Overall Mnaisha is talented, but looser her focus all the time.

@Mintyblue.....I beg to differ from your opinion just a little....but i speak for myself only and not on behalf of anyone else....

This year I honestly feel the girls are not up to par with the boys in terms of singing....last year Saurabhee was deserving....many other girls were better than boys and were out due to the voting system which sucks....

I do not feel it is boys against girls, and I may not be the best judge of songs and talent, I still feel the need to express my opinion on wether or not a singer sounds good to my ears or not....(That is why I am on the forums!!😉)......However, I do not think it is right to support Tia, Arpita or Bhoomi just because they happen to be girls....they need to be more...like better singers than the boys.

And I agree that it should be an equal ratio of final contestants between boys and girls.

No offense...just my point of view...

Hey I 100% agree with you on the bolded part. But my problem is when people make blind statements like 'Vishwaas should be back not Mgehna' - that reeks of bias if you ask me. Meghna's last performance on Indian Idol gave us a preview of her REAL talent which if you ask me was not exposed fully on this platform. After that performance how can poeple make statements like taht?

Similiarly many poeple are against swaroop because he 'cannot sing Hindi song' which is ridiculous if you ask me. That is not part of this thread, but still people always want a male chocolate boy looks guy as winner, taht's troubling. like shivam fro example, or Yashraj. How are they great? yet because of their looks they get support😳

But on the other hand if a girl gtes support for her looks e.g. Tia it is riculed all over. no-one sees the hard work she is putting in to improve every week.

Its the double standards which are very worrying.

Tell me honestly how many negative comments Vishwas got and how many Meghna got right from the piano round?
I can easily say Indian Idol stage did not see the Real talent of Vishwas because I have heard him in SRGMP and I know what he is capable of.

Similiarly many poeple are against swaroop because he 'cannot sing Hindi song' which is ridiculous if you ask me.

I have never supported Yashraj and I never will because I don't like his voice quality.
Coming to Shivam, if you visit his appreciation thread, most of the people there like his singing like I do. If looks were such an issue then no one beats Bhoomi or Tia in that regard. May be you came across some posts which made you write like that but I think most people here are only worried about one thing i.e. singing.

But on the other hand if a girl gtes support for her looks e.g. Tia it is riculed all over. no-one sees the hard work she is putting in to improve every week. Its the double standards which are very worrying.

There is no singer who does not do hard work. Yes the amount of hard work may differ. Tia may be the most hard working but that hard work is good for nothing if you don't perform on the day and that's what matters to public.

I feel Sourabhee winning Indian Idol 4 was token symbolism...just to prove girls can also win The competition is no battle of genders .. 😛 ...from this season they are back to emphasizing on boys only. As if the girls are as good as Sreeram, Shivam, Naushad, Swaroop, Shashi, Rakesh... 🤔

So out of 5 seasons if 4 times boys won it is a big shame only SHAME ?! for what ??! Why are YOU ashamed if the guys win ??! 😆 ...proves we are a backward country...esp in Idol 3 Deepali should have won... I don't think so.. Amit Paul should have won! He was the best PERFORMER of the season! 😳

This is really bad. Yeaaa.. Prashant, Sourabhee, Sandeep winning the title just de-graded the standard of Indian Idol and actually shows the voting system in India, now that is what I am ashamed of.. 👎🏼 And I see most memvers here are supporting boys. Not really.. most of us are supporting best singers.. 🤔Why can't Arpita, Bhoomi or Tia win? Arpita CAN be in top 5.. but, one of the three girls winning the title ??!! 😕 🤣 .. You have gotta be kidding by saying Tia and BHOOMI can win.. 😆 And if girsl sing twice as good as boys they will only get half d praise😡 E.g. Arpita in gala 1 was best, but Sreeram won d bike. Like the above said.. are you into sexism or what ??! 😆 😛 Anyway wot will a girl do with a bike? It's none of anybody's business.. 😆

please stop token symbolism idol...and by making Season 4 woman-centric did not really mean anything...if you go back to old ways in season 5...🤢😳😲

Look at the talent and not the gender.. 😆 😛

It doesn't matter who wins.. it's all about who deserves more..

Do you HONESTLY feel that Bhoomi(rofl), Tia and Arpita should WIN the title this season ?? Just because they're girls. 🤔
