Hi to All,
I am going to write abt inconsistency in Judges.
1) they disagree with each other quite a lot. Though it is fine to expect this from individuals. It is not fine from 3 people who are in the same profession for such a long time. Everyone has seen a regular contradiction of Anu and Sonu 's comments (I refer to e.g sony saying "Main tuch hoon aap mahan ho") and both are experts in music!!
2) Anu Malik's inconsistency.. He says Karunya ne acha gaya on the day karunya sang a song. Next day at the results time, he says karunya ne utna acha nahi gaya tha when I see the replay. I do not say that indian public vote according to what judges say but an expert opinion does count. Last night he went to the extent of copying SAREGAMA to go on stage and congratulate Meenal for her performance while everyone knows that she did not raise her voice that briliantly for such a beautiful song. And if you can ever record indian idol (or see it again via internet), you will clearly see his inconsistency. Such is not expected from a person of his calibre, I mean we are talking abt Anu Malik..Helllo..
3) Sonu: He only concentrates on singing. very well.. but here is a thought.. once he talked about standing notes and that Anuj was missing it..but I can bet if 90% of the Indian public understood what he said. Yes Sonu you ar the expert but can you not tell in simplest of terms your opinion about singing. Saying you did not sung well or you sung well or going on to the details of singing in notes is not expected of you.
4) Farah Khan..She represents an average Indian and hence her choice is probably the best. What she does is listen from heart and gives her comments but only a few can note that she asks what does anu or sonu think abt someone's performance and I am sure must be getting influenced.
What Sony Needs to do is to show the clips of the contenstents again and not to release verdict of judges on the performance day and also do a consistency check on their comments.
Having said all this, I do not wish to say the judges are not doing good, they are but they need to be more consistent, careful in their comments, supportive, positively critical and of course most importantly unbiased (which we can feel they are not).
So good luck indian idol watchers, Hope you choose a person who entertains you the best...mind you we are not choosing another playback or a pop singer... we are choosing an "IDOL" who can really represent India in the international scenario and will be a true "Indian Idol"
Thanks for reading my comments.
