Is Indian Idol manipulating our....?

Is II lying when they say that our votes count cause ever since galas started, everyone that the judges said were bad have gotten out...did, b/c of last yrs wrong votes(judges supported Karunya), the judges change the votes at the last second since janta voted 4 a really good singer? OR Is the janta actually listening to the judges cause they've realized about their bad taste (no offense to sandeep fans!) and will only listen to the judges.. What do u guys think?

you knoee I noticed tht too....Are they actually listening to the votezz??? or just whoever they want kick 'em out?

😕 what are u trying to say?????

wht i m tryin to say is that Jolly and Richa were both not liked by the judges and so they're out...i've watched indian idol 1 and 2 and both shows outcome were not the judges complete fav (well Abhijeet was ok, but they didnt like sandeep being ii) so r they not listening to the audience votes and r just eliminating who they want

Vashista...Let me ask a honest question...app ko music ki parakh hai? if u dont have knowledge abt music what will u do? while a performer is singing all u can do is listen to him/her sing. But after the singing is done when u hear judges comment u will be like oh yeah judges are right. Judges there r to brain wash ppl. More the judges give negative comments to contestants the same contestant will defff receive more votes ..more money to sony indian idol. janta ko phiki daal jaisi hai..tadka daldo toh aachi nahi to bhi aachi. Agar swad bigadgayi toh bahut buri. So judges play role to change opinion of ppl sometimes..i guess..just my two cents 😕 damn too much thinking

i agree with dell, judges can actually effect how we vote, like if the judge says one of favourites were not good that day, i'll be voting more than usual cos i fear him getting out. on the other hand if the judges praise some one a lot then you might feel, he's safe anyway cos people will vote for him, so i'll send my vote to my next favourite, so in the end your shocked by the results of the best singers being in the bottom 4.

you never know...anything is possible with reality (or the lack of reality 😉) tv. undoubtedly, judges' comments impact the way the audience votes. But, this year the galas so far seem to be going exactly as the judges want (gala 1-richa was #1 choice for judges to vote out and she was eliminated. gala 2- judges unanimously chose jolly as their #1 choice to vote out and she too was eliminated) maybe sony/ judges are manipulating votes (well, we never know how many ppl voted and the breakup of the votes among contestants so u never know). if they are..the janta is being ripped off and they really arent deciding the next bharat ki shaan..but honestly im glad cuz after audience's decision in II2 of choosing abhijeet over karunya or votingout amey i can hope for a better result if the dcision isnt in the hands of the people alone
