The importance of being the 1st II - Page 2

same thing with American Idol, when it started it was outstanding, now has become somewhat bore

i didnt watch II1 or II2...but i knew abhijeet...they always showed him on sony...he did guest appearances on other sony shows etc...since he was the 1st, sony overhyped him as well as the entire II show and thtz y everyone knew him as well as the show....when II2 came along, viewers hadnt gotten over FG..so i guess 2 reality singing talent shows in a row was sony's mistake. moreover, sandeep wasnt even a fraction of what abhijeet was in terms of singing quality, personality fan following etc people wanted karunya to win but sandeep won..so they were disappointed..this got them less interested in II....ive been following II3 since the beginning and I like it..the ppl r talented..but sony adds 2 much drama

As they say, the first is alwayz there to be remebered in the years to come. Abhijeet will alwayz b a role model for all aspiring contestants. Its the first Idol who has set his mark and gone through a tot unaware procedure and won and therfore deserves it. Even in history, alwayz the 1st ruler of the dynasty is remeberd. In the same way, the first one is alwayz rememberd. But then, it could be possible tat the singers in the later seasons r btr than 1st 1, but the first will alwayz b rememberd and every season compared with!! 😳

acha india ki baat chodo...just here in canada (maybe usa too) itz soo evident...

we didnt get II1...no1 knew about it here...

but styl wen abhijeet won...his name was sooo popular all over the world...it was all over the news here also...and thas the first time we heard of him...even tho we had never seen II1, or even knew of such a reality show in india...we got to know of it becuz of the name "abhijeet sawant"...

wen abhijeet became idol...he got sooo popular there was a hugeee craze for him here...even i became his hugeee fan just watching his album launch...

hehe.....ppl say indian idol made abhijeet sawant popular.....but for us here.....it was actually abhijeet sawant that made the show popular...

den wen II2 started...it did air here (unlike ii1)...but styl 2dai...if u ask ppl about sandeep acharya...they'd be like, sorry who??? 😕

that shows alot!

exactly...i remember when i used to go to college....ppl were just like...whoz gonna be out...who sang well...etc etc...there was so much of craze...it was unbelievable...i guess with II 2 the craze just went down...

Its sad that in India only people remembers Idol 1 - But if you see American Idol - its still so popular even after so many years - I think in India so many shows of the same format has started and that has diluted the whole euphoria about these reality shows and even the quality of singers also matters - along with the puplicity - and media do play a big role - but with so many singining contest in almost every channel , even Media is not interested

yes thats the reason..II, SRGMP, FG,...i mean so many...II 1 was first of its kind...thats why it was so popular...now...like in II3...contestants are good...but the craze is missing...and its obvious...ppl have got so used to such shows...its nothing new now...

Yeh Manali i back u too! 😳 ..U knw back then Indian Idol was something "new" 😃 and totally like there.. it was fresh and everyone was so interested, a reality show where we see talent 😃 , singing and we find an idol 😛 !..It was a massive thing then!...OMG i remember too...i was like "oh my god..this show is awesome" 👏 big time...that time even Anu Mallik And Farah Khan never irritated us as much as they did in the later seasons 😆 ...lolz!..i adoreddd Abhi like crazy 😳 , and i remmeber i had exams goin during finale..but cudnt study coz i thought "omg Abhi might loose...so many like Amit " but then Abhijeet won & wooo i went crazy 😳 !!! Our first ever idol and that tooo sooo cuteeeee!!!! 😃

Then came along season 2 🤢 ...Although i kinda sorta liked it..for pple like Monali, Meenal and all but the initial excitement kinda faded …but then again that was the year I discovered IF 😃 and well I kinda liked the season more coz well there was lots to discuss and do here and well it was kool 😊 …BUT BUT BUT then..argh…Monali went, Meenal went, Amey went….I was pissed off 😡 abd even Farah started to irritate me and Anu mallik's shayari's were like livin torture 🤢 …and then I was like OK the best singer is still there Karunya blew me away 👏 !…And I was like YAY he's gonna win!…but alas…..life sucks…..Sandy won ….guys please don't be biased and say he was good…he wasn't near good …..Karunya was SO SO SO much better..versatile , talented, gr8 voice !!!…But well a very sad ending to a sad season! 😭


Now this season 😕 ….alls well…but this forum has changed…there's not much going on 😭 …old members have quit ….nothing interesting…only link ups, rumours, talent is good but that's not at all anyone is bothered abt !…Kinda sad….everones bothered only abt who likes who, who loves who, whats going on etc. But well lets see where we all head.!!!! 😊


But again II1 was the best 👏 …..as we say …"original original hee rehta hain"!!!!!….Hope this season talent triumphs over luck!!!! 😊

haan yaar...same here...i was not at home the day II 1 grand finale was there ...n we all rushed back home at arnd 8pm...and eveyone was so damn tensed 😆 including my mom n dad...and when abhijeet won..i was jumping up n down...i went mad...hehe...my bros wanted amit to win and i teased them so much 😆

II 2...imo the contestants weren't up to the mark...n then all the good ones got out 🤢 i didnt even watch the finale and the last few epi's....after amey was out i totally lost interest!

lets see II 3 mein kya hota hai...but as i said 1st will always be 1st and most special 😳

i don't see the importance of being 1st i mean if your in at least top 3 then your famous....the rest depends on your kismat...that all... 👏 👏
