Another thing is India Idol section rocks and guys are really good here and thats why I feel comfortable writing here and not in SRGMP .Its not about young or grownup and when I say SRGMP has better singer than II that doesn't mean our section guys look only for other factors.I personally like Indian Idol but it has its own strength and drawback and we have to accept both .
I went to Himesh concert where Abhi, Vinit , Himani, Alisha sang too and accept or not but vinit got more crowd support than abhi ( may be bcoz of himani dont know๐) .
.
Hopefully this time Indian Idol gives us better singer and performer who has better looks , better smile and better xfactor also.Indian Idol should be like Indian Idol not someone who is only loved /liked by one section/region of people.
Anyway nice to read all of your guys POV ..
Exactly my point AJ !!!...Vineet to me was more about X factor than real singing ...Hemu , Nihira were much much better than him singing wise and they were great performers too ..I used to be mesmerised when Nihira sang "chup chup ke chup chup ke "...or a more hatke song from Hare rama hare krishna ..or hemu's ramta jogi but it was Himesh's dramabaazi and all those bf/gf nakhras that fetched Vineet in runners up position and whole country fell for it.....
And the 2nd bold lettered sentence is also about srgmp long before Sandy won ....there it showed how just 1 region can make a winner bec it left no stone unturned to make Debojit a winner ....
srgmp six seven years ago even 3 years ago was different sp the year the little abhrokanti was the runner up ..but this li'l champ was sooo different ...
My point of contention is not whether srgmp is better than Indian Idol ..my point is where people r mentioning that srgmp is way better than Indian Idol and that Indian Idol is not about singing , it's only about x factor...
Believe me ,I love music...period ...whatever knowledge I have I would say yes srgmp was excellent when Shreya , Kunal , shweta , won...but Indian Idol wasn't there at that time ..so there is no yardstick to measure and compare...
If I compare srgmp with Indian Idol since last 2 years , I'll definitely say it again barring Nihira Joshi there were comparable singers in Indian Idol ๐....
Good to talk to u ..I am a huge music lover ..and i love to watch srgmp , Indian Idol ...I love the whole package but 1st and foremost I want my favs to sing in sur and must have enough classical experience and then looks ๐..fortunately all my favs in Idol and srgmp had that ...I even watched fame x just for Rehan Khan bec he was the only classical trained , awesome singer there ( and cute too๐..)...
Again that's my 2 cents ...
