Govinda aala re...

With yet another girl being eliminated, the number of girls for the title of Indian Idol seems to be dwindling. It's now becoming more difficult for the top 10 contestants to move towards the title. Each week, the competition becomes tougher. In the coming week, the contestants will have to show their flair in singing both slow and fast numbers. The result: a mind-blowing show of talent and determination to excel. The best part of the show was that the celebrity guest, the junta's actor Govinda, also matched their talent with his own at singing and dancing! Govinda sang, danced and simply swept the contestants, audience and even the judges off their feet.
Puja kick-started the show with a superb performance and everyone followed it up with their best too. Chang once again proved his mettle. But it was Emon who dominated the show with his spirited performance, which had even Anu Malek acknowledging it in his trademark poetry! But the two people who stole the show were once again Amit Paul with his heartrending Why did you break my heart… and Tum kya jaano mohabbat kya hai. If Amit brought the house down with his singing, Ankita burnt the dance floor with Govinda to the tune of Babuji dheere chalna and Babuji zara dheere chalo. The ace performer that Ankita is, she managed to entice Govinda to dance with her. Together, they were a riot! Not to be left out of all the song and dance, Anu Malek and Alisha joined the gang on stage to bring down the curtains on a delightful evening. Govinda's presence seemed to have brought out the best in everybody. And it was great to have Javed Akhtar back in the judge's chair.
How did the celebrity judge, who sang and danced and rocked the show, feel about coming back after a hiatus? He candidly confessed that Salman Khan was indeed the friend who helped him out of his rough patch with a role in Partner, his comeback venture. Now that he is back, he has promised he is going nowhere… he belongs to the world of glam and glitz and he is here to stay.
