Who do you think will get evicted this week?
I hope Manya is shown the door this week.

On social media Tajinder and Manya seem to have the least fans.
I think it'll be Manya. The judges have given Tajinder high scores (top performer), so even with lowest votes he'll still be number 4/5.

Revanth, Khudabaksh, Mohit and Maalavika have a huge fan following.

Shravan and Rohit dont deserve to go, but I fear if the channel favours Manya this week, it'll be one of these two brilliant singers.

So in the most likely order - Manya, Shravan, Rohit.

I still think KB may be in bottom three despite the huge fan following...

Shravan could be in danger, even malavika, if anyone gets eliminated and Manya is saved it will be unfair...

it would be a blunder if they eliminate Shravan or Rohit. It's like making a mockery of talent and channel would not take such risk. Channel would also not make a botch by keeping Manya in the race.

Besides, calculating one's popularity based on social networking does not always give the right results. People with many different IDs and different handles who are continuously posting for, or promoting contestants cannot be counted as samples. Not everyone who watches or follows Indian Idol is active in social media. And, not just public voting determines the elimination or win, but judges scores (which plays a big role) and channels decision as well. In worst case, judges can use their veto power to save a talented contestant with poor public voting. They did this in the last junior season.

I agree with almost everything you've said.
But the only way I can judge popularity not being in India is unfortunately social media.

I'm guessing after all the backlash, Manya will go

We can't ignore the social media followers, they play a vital part, but there is another set audience, the trp audience, who can make the difference if they choose to be an active participant.


But more than all these, there is channel politics which can overturn anything.

Absolutely! The result of last junior season says it all. Nahid had a huge social media popularity followed by Nityashree and Vaishnav. Based on FB, twitter and all, I thought Nahid would win. Even the CM of Assam was urging the people to vote for Nahid...LOL! But the dark horse was Ananya- who stood behind in terms of popularity and seized the title at the end.

I hope it will be Manya who gets eliminated otherwise it will be very unfair for the talented contestants and will be a mockery of talent.

Going by last week's performance alone, I think Malavika should go.
But looking at overall consistency of performance, it should be Manya. Tajinder got performance of the week. Does that mean he's automatically safe?

Not automatically, but yes technically safe. As he tops the judges' score, he would be pushed to safe zone even with fewer votes!!
