Hi pjyo! I've only just recently caught up on "Rising Star". I don't live in India so watch it online. I find the other stuff in the show quite tedious 😃, especially the anchors and the long-winded intros to the contestants plus the skype calls with the families, so end up skipping all of that and getting right to the performance! In doing so, I often miss the name of the contestant! 😛😆
But in all probability you are right about Maithili Thakur, I remember she was from Calcutta and sang "Hai Rama" from Rangeela and she was wonderful! Shankar's comments are the ones I really like to listen to, he gives constructive feedback and its pretty relevant most of the time.
I would love to chat about "Rising Star" with fellow viewers. This site doesn't have a forum for it yet? 😕. There should be one! Any ideas on how to get the mods to start one?

yeah ,sometimes i miss the contestants name too as i skip channels to avoid the anchors, most of the show is wasted on chats and intros...but i try to watch as some contestants were really good ..

The girl who sang 'hai rama' was shreyasi bannerji, maithali was another school girl from delhi (it was on the 3rd episode ) ,she sang 'bhor bhayi',i was very happy to see how quickly the audience voted for her even though she sang pure classical ,shankar was very impressed,i luved his comments on her singing ..shankar is my favorite judge too👍🏼

i have no clue how to get a rising star forum,maybe lots of requests to moderators 🤔

Yes I remember the girl who sang "bhor bhayi". She was awesome and the wall went up in record time for her! I hope the "Rising star" audience is more sensible than the Indian Idol one at least . There is section in the general suggestions page where I have made my request. Let's see if the moderators take note. Perhaps you could too. Here's the link

I liked her singing and also her reason to sing on RS -to popularize folk music - it's rare to see kids who are proud of traditional background and not completely dazzled by bollywood...shankar was so proud to claim he clicked first😆..

Thanks for the link lizzie,i posted there too,hopefully moderators will notice..with shravans exit i have lost all interest for idol
