What are YOU talking about...???

Yes YOU!!!

Firstly, if this post comes across as harsh and obnoxious, that's not the intention. The intention is to (hopefully) give a different perspective and ideology which is unfortunately contradictory to what I have been observing on this forum since the competition started.

Coming to the topic, today Shantanu bid adieu to this wonderful stage where like-minded souls and (so-called) singers are given an amazing opportunity of a lifetime. Just because, he might not have had the supposed good looks or physical charm, he got eliminated (despite of his stupendous talent and perhaps one of the refined vocals which he could have easily polished further in the competition had he not been eliminated)

On the contrary, the guy who's supposedly a rocker, much inclined to the Western form of music, is given another chance, just because he has the attitude, personality, looks bla bla bla.....

Very simple question, putting every thing aside, and being absolutely impartial, who deserves to win the competition: a singer who's an average looker, or an average singer with a rock-on personality (and the very much misunderstood X factor)

Simply, this question would have made sense if Shantanu would have remained in the competition, but thanks to the janta, Suhit got another leap...

And, why is there so much disbelief about Shantanu's elimination now? What's with people making so many topics saying he shouldn't have gone when in reality, every page on this forum has a topic dedicated to Suhit, much more to "how cute he is" or "funny" or stuff related!

Please excuse me for saying this, its most of you guys who are going on creating Suhit's fan clubs, and avi's and what not, and promoting his charm, not his talent. Trust me, I am not being partial towards anyone, if he had the talent to back up his personality, I would have been shouting at the top of my lungs and supporting him too. But sadly he doesn't!

So why this two-faced act? Why do you guys get agitated and disgusted when a good singer gets eliminated and undeserving people get in (again, just coz they have an in-born charm)....which concludes, forget singing, if someone's got looks, he's already got a lot of his new fans to back him up, why bother putting effort and sing...

Sorry guys, this is absolutely unfair to the people who genuinely work hard, strive hard to make it this far...do you realize how much it takes to even reach this far....getting through all those heart wrenching, anxious and anticipatory auditions, rehearsing almost 24/7, and then just with a blink of an eye, getting out! .....it's heartbreaking...

Anyways I am no one to compell anybody to vote for a b or c. Everyone's entitiled to their personal votes and opinions, but please, just THINK once before you vote...maybe that helps...It's a SINGING competition, not a beauty pageant, there is genuine talent out there, recognize it...

Again, no personal intentions to hurt anyone's feelings, pardon me if I did...

Thanks....

i understand your point. i agree with u
i personally wanted shantanu to stay as he deserved it 1000 times more than suhit ever will in this life time. but again what can u do about this voting system?
p.s. i never liked suhit's singing. so hopefully i dont come under the reality checks u mentioend.
but this is just the begining, lets see more of these things in the future as the good ones go away in the coming episodes. it always happens this way. how can u beat the janta ? (or the corporate level executive decisions of sony tv?? 🤬

What about the channel? Aren't they also to blame for not giving screen time and footage to certain contestants? Even judges are biased towards certain contestants, regardless of how they sing! Alisha "ma'am" picked Suhit over Shantanu too. The judges are to blame too.

Exactly!!! I wonder how people can vote for Suhit...he is just a normal teen with raging hormones. U can find people like him in any colleges today...most of them have the same attitude and dressing sense...but we are looking for a singer here......

Alisha is far-sighted. She wants the rich cultural fabric of India to also be encrusted with the diamonds Heavy metal Music. Meditation is for old fashioned people.

You said it well..

Its we the viwers who are choosing their favs and standing up for them..

Viewers fault that good singers are out.. viewers include all of us too ..who voted and who didnt vote..
there were singers who did worse than shantanu..so on tht basis he derserved to stay in tho he wasnt the best..

but the channel is at fault too as sonya said.. judges tooo...

channel cud have given more coverage to those who had the potential to prove themselves..

judges cud have been unbiased too

very well said ... 👏 👏 👏

I have to put forward another point ...

when average singers remain in top 5 and almost all good singers leave, don't blame Sony or the judges ..

they did their part ..producing some awesome, talented singers in front of u ...but it's the audience who threw them away .... 😕
