SHILLONG: Despite winning the hearts of many by his golden voice, Amit Paul could not fulfill the dreams of millions of his fans as he lost the battle of votes to Prashant Tamang of Darjeeling, who walked away with the coveted Indian Idol 3 title on Sunday night.
Prashant, a constable with the West Bengal Police, outshone the Shillong lad by a margin of four lakh votes in the grand finale of the popular reality show on Sony Entertainment TV.
As soon as the news of Amit's defeat in the talent hunt contest spread, a pall of gloom descended on Shillong, where thousands of music lovers anxiously were sitting glued to their TV sets and milling around giant screens put up in various parts of the city to know the outcome of the musical event. Many left the places where they were watching the Indian Idol contest on the giant screens.
An otherwise busy Police Bazaar wore a deserted look. Shops downed their shutters and other business establishments were closed.
