Yeah but this didn't have to be a discussion about Parleen, did it? 😆 I'm sorry are you going by what the judges said about gaayeki?? Failed miserably at everything except punju songs??

I said the same thing too then why are we discusiing him 😉😆. No yaar I never listen to these judges. If I did then my views on Parleen would be different. I go with what I hear and see.

As you said in your last para. To each its own. Versatility should be inspected and analysed in a broader perspective. Then we won't be putting all fast songs in same genre.😃

And parleen was not worse than puja . Listen to the comments again. Puja was completely off key and off beat/rhythm at times too.She wasn't happy with her perf as well. "life mein maine pehli baar tempo miss kiya". "parleen aapne pua antara bilkul flat gaaya" no talk about taal or the entire song being besura.

As I said since most of us don't have much expectations from him even his mediocre rendition gets praise. Whereas with singers like Puja we have high expectations and just one flaw makes us criticize them. Puja was definitely flawed and had guts to vote herself out. Why? Because she can differentiate the range in her singing. Parleen was equally or worser than Puja but he doesn't realize that himself.

So even though Ankita might not be the strongest singer, she is a great performer and fit for the Indian Idol stage.

👏

Aisha, I am not a fan of Ankita but I like her. According to me she is the only one who improved with each rendition. All others were either good in the beginning and stayed consistent or went down. If anything I would say Ankita is underrated among her co-contestants and on this forum.

Oh. I quoted you before you added this part. I am amused that people think anyone who sings only slow numbers or only fast numbers is not versatile. We need to see broader perspective of versatile. This question of contestants singing different genre is now a big debate on various shows. Should one sing in the genre they excel or should they try a mediocre hotch-potch of all just to show the versatility? If we take many famous singers of the past and present there are very few who can excel in all genres. Others stick to their own genre. If we take examples of Amey and Karunya froom last season then the former exceled in slow romantic numbers whereas the latter was brilliant in fast punjabi numbers. We have seen them trying other genres too and saw the results too. I am not comparing Ankita to the learned singers but at this platform it doesn't matter. Everyone should be treated equal and viewed on the basis of their singing not because of attitude or dancing.

Now having said that let me retreat to my first para. All fast paced songs are not noisy songs. Each song has a distinctive raaga and laya. That also shows versatility.

It's not just about slow or fast numbers. It's about the genre. The range.The feelings which the singer is required to emote.The style. Punju, folk, thumri,whatever. Uh huh i understand. It's a topic of extreme debate in the other shows. But personally i feel you are comparing them to established singers. That is their livelihood. Atif aslam sings in that genre to get money. this on the other hand for crying out loud is a competition. COMPETITION. Whereby you have to prove your potential. Didn't you see that girl on star voice. the daughter of the singer. they were so disppointed with her when she sang hari om hari. Besides why do you have to be a medicre 'hotch potch' at all songs? You can be good in like 3 genres. It isn't black or white. It doesn't have to be jack of all trades , master of none. One can be good at 3 or 4 genres. I'm sorry i didn't follow ii2 that well so i don't really know what you're talking about. Oh that other star voice girl, the one who sang ruki ruki, what's her name, ahh abhilasha. they said that she is an extremely strong contender for star voice and highlighted that she is able to sing all kinds of songs.

Definitely all fast paced songs aren't noisy songs. they have a distinct raag and taal but hearing her songs you will be able to tell that the raags in which her songs were , were raags within close proximity, basically raags which had similar aarohs and avrohs. Sunke hi pata lagta hai. Different raags are also for different genres. If you have some knowledge of music, say bhairavi and bhairav would be used for slow numbers since they have more komal swaras while bilawal, yaman have shudh notes which is why they are more happy sounding.

I'm sorry didn't you bring his name up? Ohh right. Frankly I am don't think ki meri utni aukaat hai ki i oppose eminent judges in terms of the technicalities of music.

Did you miss what i said? the judges have high hopes from parleen as well.Fine hopes and expectations are their intensity affect the level of disappointment. But going by just technicalities. "aapne antara BILKUL flat gaaya" That is hardcore observation. nothing to do with disppointment. Most of puja's song was besura and she went out of taal in a few places. Parleen was on taal the whole song.

In these talent shows TALENT alone doesn't matter. If it was then everyone would be going gaga over technically and otherwise sound singers like Emon and not Parleen 😉and others. Contestants want to get more votes. They are not here to prove anything. There is enough time to do that.
