Two days back, Indian Idol 2 finalist, Neha Kakkar, performed in a stage show for AIDS day.

She rocked the show and set the stage on fire. She sang her favourite song "Mann Ki Lagan" from the film Paap. Then she sang her new album song Dil Aur Pyar which goes like this…

Dil Aur Pyar.

Mangta Hai Yaar.

Hum Hai Dildar.

Na Kare Inkaar.

Dil aur pyar.

Then she sang Tinka Tinka, Seekh Le, Mehboob Mere, Zubi Zubi, and other songs in her other albums. She also sang the classic hit "Chandni Rattein" and also sang a Punjabi Song "Dildarian." Then they had a special prayer for all the people who have AIDS and there was a slideshow about it.

After 5 minutes she got a call from Anu Malik, Farah Khan, & Sonu Nigam. They told her that they were making a new movie directed by Farah, music by Anu, and songs sung by Sonu. They told her that they wanted her to sing one of the songs with sonu nigam. Neha screamt with joy and said Jai Mata Di! Then they gave her a surprise and came from backstage on the stage.

The last song was sung by Neha, Amey, Karunya, Meenal, Panna, Antara, Sagar, Sandeep, Yashashree, Ravi, Anuj, Jolly, and Monali. They sang Woh Pehli Baar. Fans took her autograph, were happy, and went home.

Neha was delighted and said that this was her greatest birthday party ever!

Then after the show…many journalists came to take Neha's interview about where was she all these years and why did she perform in this stage show...

She replied," After i was voted out from Indian idol, I was interested in computers but I got recognition in the media and also received many singing offers so I decided I'd become a singer. But I believed I was too young and wanted to learn more in music. So after completing my 12th grade, I went abroad (UK) to learn more of western music. Also I had taken dance lessons to improve my performance. Then after 5 years I came back to India and received training under Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (my favourite artist) in classical and instrumental music.

Now I perform in stage shows with them in instrumental music because it gives me peace. But for AIDS day I was asked by Sony to perform in a charity and I agreed because it's for good cause, it was my birthday, and with that I met all my dear and near friends.

I wanted to thank Sony entertainment who gave me such a wonderful platform so that we strangers could present our talent in front of public. They have given people the right for their talent. You have seen in all these years, so many talented singers and performer are coming in this world.

One good news is that I'm getting married next month, to Ryan D'souza (the person I love from 7 years. I had met him in UK. He is also trained in western music."

Journalists asked Neha if she wants to say anything to the janta.

Neha said, "Thank you for all the support you have given me in music. Hope you like all my songs and listen to them everyday!"

The End😊

Road of Fame - NC Karunya

Name: NC Karunya

Date of Birth: March 1, 1986

Place of Birth: Hyderabad

Currently Residing in: Mumbai

Education: B-Tech (Third Year) in Electronics & Communications

Family: Father (NC Madhu), Mother(NC Janaki) & Younger Sister (NC Deevena)

Born in one of very well known families for music in Andhra, Karunya displayed traits of a

great singer. He always had his sights set high. He was won several competions in the

childhood itself and proved to be a wonderful prospect for the future.

Hi Parents N.C. Madhu and N.C. Janaki noticed how good a singer was Karunya and started

training him at home from 5 yrs age.

From age 14 Karunya was trained by N C Madhu's brother NC Murthy a well know carnatic music

trainer.

While Karunya always has shown a lot of potential, it was not until he saw Abhijith Sawant

and wanted to become the agla indian idol.

He shot to fame with a stupendous performance of Sukhwinder's song from chalte chalte " Layi

vi na gayi"

All wasn't rosy though... Selection into the top28 had some tensed moments for Karu as he

was not part of the top 47 and was placed in an additional room for one more screening.

Thoug he gave an incredible display would I even go to the Gala's was his thought during

Piano round results, seems so far away yet the days of uncertainty were so real.

He slowly started growing in confidence as the galas went by started earning the accolades

of one and all.

Though he didn't get all he wanted from Indian Idol, he gained a lot of fans, won a lot of

hearts and Sonu repeatedly called him as his fav.His four close friends Meenal, Sagar ,

Monali and Antara expected him to go all the way.

His best friend at Indian Idol Meenal who later married his toughest rival at the

competetion

His toughest rival at Indian idol and later in the music world Amey Date

As soon as his Indian Idol days are over , all the hardwork he put at Indian Idol paid off

though.
He started getting offers from well know music directors that have seen him in the show,

like saleem-suleiman, Karan johar signed him up for one of his new movies.
First year as a play back singer and a pop artist was phenominal for Karu. He won a filmfare

award, a debutant best singer award on MTV and his first album which included a couple of

Punjabi numbers "kuch gal kar oye" became a tremendous success.

His fan fallowing grew at an unprecedented pace.

The next few years have included a phenominal journey from 2006 he kept winning MTV awards

and filmfare awards every alternate year, Amey and Antara were couple of his toughest

competetors not just in Indian Idol, but in later stages in singing, but they all became

best buddies as Amey soon married Meenal one of their co-contestants on the show.
He did several shows and is such a crowd puller that all those shows have been tremendous

success.

Karunya has earned a crowning glory this year, by winning a grammy award for his album

nachley kudiye made in 2016.

This article is a small tribute to this legend in Indian music industry NC Karunya
