Recently, contestants from a popular television show also came to perform, and the turnout both upped their morale and made them a little nervous. Crowd puller: It isn't just film stars who draw huge crowds when they visit Delhi or perform here. Recently, contestants from a popular television show also came to perform, and the turnout both upped their morale and made them a little nervous! Fun 'n' frolic: The venue for the event was an amusement park, and the contestants first enjoyed the rides. After having their share of fun and masti, they got ready for the stage. With their energy and zing, the show was a sellout and the crowd cheered after each song. Judge Malek: No, the judiciary did not make its presence felt. Instead, it was Anu Malek, one of the judges on the show, who was naturally all praise for the performers. These young singers are raw talent, with no prior training, and they have sung their hearts out. It is commendable," he said. Host aur dost: Hussain Kuwajerwala and Mini Mathur were also there, and they glammed up the event. Mini looked great in a green top and a golden belt, and Hussain was his usual charming self. No TV? The contestants told us they would not get to watch TV till the show ended. They took it well, though, as one of them said, Watching television is not allowed for our benefit. We should not get distracted from our goal. They were all excited to be in Delhi and said that it was wonderful to be here." Well, it was obvious Delhi loved them too! |
