Indian idol judge, Alisha Chinai, has quit the show. The pop singer seems to be very upset with the idea of public voting.

Reportedly she quit because of Meiyang Chang, one of the contestants of Indian Idol 3 who has been evicted from the show. Alisha is very upset with the development. She feels that the public has been very unfair and the voting system is mindless. The singer was left fuming on the sets, she also asked the producers to make the voting system more logical. Needless to say, the production house refused to budge. So now, the singer has made up her mind to leave the show.

When contacted, Alisha said, "I am very upset with the public voting system which is mindless. They just don't care for real talent. Being a judge, we are supposed to guide the audience to make the right choice, so that they have an idea of the contestants' talent. But, after all these days, I have realised that they just don't care. I'm ashamed to be a judge on such a show. Hence, I don't think I can continue any more."

Is the eviction of Chang the real reason? She replied, "Chang is one of the finest performers I have seen in recent times. Chang's ouster from the show is because of this erratic voting system that has annoyed me most and he definitely was close to my heart. Certainly, this decision is not instantaneous. I have raised objections several times to the voting system, but in vain. Now, I have realised that this is not my cup of tea. So, it's better to stay away."

Alisha has lost her mind. It's a insult to the remaining contestants!! That's what supposed to happen. One of the nice talent has to go to let other talents go forward. Oh well.. I kind of agree that this voting system hasn't been so much fair for girls, but the remaining contestants are still good.

Alisha quit because of erratic voting? 😆😆 What a joke? This is public voting and people will vote for their favorites. If she liked someone then she should have voted.

About judge's comments, now that should have been based on talent. All they did was fight like cats and dogs and made contradictory statements and now blaming janta for votes. Some of the audience who vote based on judges' comments do get confused with such comments.

😆 wat about the times when she used to support sujit and had a soft corner for him despite the fact that sujit was the worst singer compared to the remaining...and once she even wrote off abhishek and prashant and chose sujit over them (remember when both of them came in danger zone and like other judges she was also asked who should be voted out and once she was like abhishek, and next time she was like prashant 🤢 !) And then not to mention about Richa, she found her cute so wanted her to be in the show instead of someone else. If she can make such stupid choices, who is she to blame the audience for liking someone cos of the 'X Factor'!

Chalo,theres atleast some1 like alisha who has supported Chang openly,otherwise no1 till 2day has praised chang so much ,which he deserved from the beginning.Thank u alisha for showing so much support and luv for the immensely talented Chang and I'm sure she'll come back coz chang has requested her to do so and this is not fake,c'mon every1 has favourites and it really hurts when ur fav (when he's 1 of the best) goes out of the show despite singing extra ordinary.
