Rakesh - "Chunri Sambhal Gori" and ''Chand Sifarish''

Chunri Sambhal: Sang pretty well. In portions it was really good. But it was not amazing

8/10

Chand Sifarish- Fantastic and pretty flawless as far as I could tell. The subhanallah parts were very very good. His voice suited this song very well and he also put a lot of heart into it.

9/10

Bhoomi - "Kajra Muhabbat Wala" and ''Rangeela Re''

Kajra Muhabbat Wala: I generally tend to fast forward her songs but Kajra Mohabatt wala held my attention. She was a little shaky in parts but overall it sounded good. However, she is not the league of the other two contestants.

7/10

Rangeela Re: I didn't like this very much. Her voice didn't suit this song well imo. Yes,she sang with power and attitude but that's not good enough.

5.5/10

Sreeram - "Aa Ke Seedhi Lagi Dil Pe" and ''Pehla Nasha''

Aa Ke Seedhi Lagi Dil Pe: Fantastic. Brilliant. The transition from male to female voice was perfectly done. Performance was also spot on. Just a very superlative performance.

9.5/10

Pehla Nasha: Was good but not that great. The feel was good and noticed some subtle effects on repeat hearing but he was enunciating the words too much and the pronunciation made the song sound a bit forced. The feel was great in parts but could have been better in others.

8.5/10

After listing a couple of times, I edited some of the scores.

[:D/] rakesh's chunri sambhal was absolutely great! 9.5/10
rakesh's chand sifarish was okay. not as good as his chunri sambhal. shaan's songs don't suit him for some reason. 7.5/10

Bhoomi: mehbooba mehbooba was okay. sunidhi sang like 80% of the song. her beginning i didn't like. sounded a bit off. 7.5/10

tauba tauba: much better performance by bhoomi. quite enjoyable. 8.5/10

Sree: mere haath mein: pheonomenal: 9.8/10
Seeya chodo baiya: mesmerizing!!! 10/10

all in all, bhoomi was the weakest singer of sunidhi special. sree was the best and rakesh was also very very very good. But again, i feel shaan's songs don't suit him very well. he's much better off w/. kishore da's or rafi's songs.

very enjoyable episode w/. sunidhi though. [:D/]
