For the Attention of Alisha Chinoy
You judges are always looking for faults against Prashant, including Mr Javed Akhtar. This with regard to yesterday's show. Isn't the programs now supposed to be the final.
If you judges are going to overlook major mistakes by Amit and make big issues of the smallest mistake of Prashant, all those who were sent out earlier should be brought back. All those very good singers (far better than you Alisha) they were sent out for very small mistakes.
Now in the last final sessions when a singer forgets whole lines of songs you very casually say you have to forgive him. Is that fair. If people like you are going to be judges then in future, don't make the mistake of organizing programs like Indian Idol.
Sony channel and all those telecom companies are making money by making fools out of the poor innocent public and playing games with the contestants. Bollywood singers like you, who sing songs with no lyrics – ''kiss me kiss me. love me love me' is that any great music or song. There are too many frauds, plagiarists, cons, people with no talent pretending to be artistes and musicians, like you should disappear from Bollywood. You are frauding the people with your pseudo intellectualism and music. Don't hurt people's sentiments and loot people's money with your crap.
Learn from contestants of the Indian Idol, what is sincerity, honesty, music, singing and true talent. People here in Nepal, used to respect Mr Javed Akhtar, what has happened, is he also for sale or has he been bought by Sony already.
Prashant is a poor and simple, Nepali youth. We Nepalese are proud of his achievement. Without any training he has let his talent loose to fight for his SURVIVAL and his chances of becoming Indian Idol. No matter how hard you try to remove him, or bring him down he is always smiling. You judges should also learn what humility is from him, if you are a judge learn to behave like a judge.
All contestants have to eventually go out, but even a very good singer like Emon was discouraged and disparaged, by you great judges. Young people should be encouraged, their mistakes should be shown to them with diplomacy, their egos should not be hurt so that they are emotionally crippled later.
You judges have been doing a great job by bloating your own egos, being biased and most importantly very unprofessional.
