Changing clothes on live shows?

Mandira had a different outfit for the opening "dance" number. Harshit's jacket went from orange to black. Abhijeet lost his shirt for the awards segments. Rahul's shirt went from red to blue. And we already know why Harshit and Abhijeet wore something different for the Bipasha segment.

How about the eliminated contestants introduced during a song number at the beginning? Prajakta was not in a blue kameez then, but she was by the end of the show. Neha's top went from a skimp black to a regular black, with orange at various stages in between.

And those stars from the serials, scripted to support the finalists: they were seen wearing the same clothes throughout. Which means: canned shots during an ostensibly "live" show.

Not to mention the musical chairs in the judges' enclave. Sometimes, there were three, sometimes four, sometimes five...

It couldn't be any more obvious that this so-called "live" show was a replay of segments taped in advance. Fake from beginning to end.

But who cares? Who cares if people spent money to vote on a predetermined result? This is a "reality" show, Indian style -- on the cheap (no live band -- the producers couldn't afford it) and bogus, just like a Bollywood movie.

Excuse me there's really not any reason to get so mad, its just a show so just 🙂.



If you don't care about quality, you can be sure that you'll get crap, and only crap.

(And perhaps you have no objection to people being bamboozled into transfering their money into the pockets of cheats -- "producing" cheap knock-off copies. But I do.)

Arre, it has been said already that only the performances had been shot before in hand.. The results were shot in the later stages after the counting was over!! Remember that they never said its Live.. Did they say its live show??

Oh BTW - I know ppl who visited the sets and got the results.. So, its not fake.. Its true to the core..

Including, as Mandira said, "Vidya's third challenge!" -- the duet by Abhijeet and Rahul after Harshit had been eliminated?

The counting wasn't over until 9pm Saturday, after the show was already on the air. So when did they shoot it? Or did they bring back Wednesday's audience, everyone in the same clothes?

If they didn't, I'm glad they didn't because it's obvious everything was taped in advance (and then edited, with the usual incompetence.)

Then why did they show the audience from Wednesday's shoot?

It would be interesting to know what exactly these visitors saw, and when. Did they see stagehands move chairs in and out of the judges' enclave? Did they see contestants go off-stage to change clothes? Which guests actually were present on Saturday? Sonu? The Chhote Ustad girls (this known not to be true)? The stars from the StarTV serials (Bidaii, Kumkum, Baa Bahu aur Baby)? Shahid and Vidya? Did these people you know say that what was shown on the air is what they saw on the set? And at what time? Did the show start at 8pm real time on Saturday, on the set these people visited? Etc, etc, etc.

Too many questions and inconsistencies, I'm afraid...

Proof, please?

Why are the clothes worn by Harshit, Abhijeet and Rahul during the Shaid/Vidya segments the SAME as the clothes they wore for the Chhote Ustad segment, which was prerecorded? (They wore different clothes in the other segments, but Indian audiences, trained by Bollywood, paid no attention.)

given that rahul vaidya won its obvious that the show was rigged, and just how rahul was the focus of the finale from the beggining (almost always pictured in the middle, "the one and only rahul", the stupid grin he had on his face, the "date" with mandira etc etc)

Arrey NOOO !! Half of the show was shot on Thursday and the other half was live on Saturday. So obviously, the live part was the part inclusive of the results announcement. 😊 And why do you care so much whether it's live or not? Live or pre-recorded, it's still Rahul, Abhijeet and Harshit singing rite? Not like when they pre-record, they put in Sonu's voice or smth 😆 And when they change clothes, it can be done very fast backstage. Live or not live, different clothes are still better to watch as compared to seeing the same ones for the whole of 4 hours. RITE !!! 😉
