Will this be the next Indian Idol?

Things are hotting up fast for the seven Indian Idol hopefuls. After meeting the first four, here's an introduction to their equally eager rivals. Deepali, 18. Patna She's the smart one. Of all the youngsters lining up for the crown, Deepali impresses instantly with her confidence and verve, her conversation tinged with a touch of sass. "I've been singing forever," she smiles. Evidently, her parents -- her father's in the CID, Special Branch, Bihar Police, and mother's a housewife -- told her that as soon as she started to talk, she started to sing. "In school, from KG to Class 12, I remember I've always been singing. If there's any event at school, Deepali's singing -- that's a given." Never having lived away from her parents, Deepali's led a sheltered life, though she insists her parents never overpampered her. "Independence feels different," she smiles before admitting that she's never worked this hard. "Patna doesn't really have places to hang out, but socially it's a very warm place. You can always go to a neighbour's house." Deepali is stunned by the nobody-cares plastic facade she's seen in Mumbai, and sums it up well. "Here, there's nothing social. It's all economical. Or political, maybe." She shrugs off the smalltown comparison with some defiance. "Patna actually isn't such a small town, not as small as people in Mumbai think, anyway. It's a proper city, but people here think it's a village because it's situated in Bihar." She holds forth on state level politics, talking about why it's responsible for the misconstrued image. "I'm not saying that it's the perfect state to live in, but it's not as bad as a lot of people here think. Even in Mumbai, people are poor, unemployed." So the difference, then? "Well, Mumbai's a lot showier about its money; there's a visibly clear class-divide. Of course, they do have a lot more money. And here I have noticed," here eyes twinkle with mischief, "that the higher the class, the lesser the clothes." No Idol finalist has ever been from Bihar, and not just is Deepali representing the all too-proud state but also womanhood in general. Apparently, audiences are unceremoniously giving the axe to female contestants while lesser talented male counterparts stay on. The balance, however, seems to have been redressed in the last couple of weeks. "A woman could definitely be Idol," the History student feels as she explains tradition and 'our patriarchal nature.'

She, however, has a strong intuition she'll be eliminated next. Are her intuitions usually correct? "No," she chimes in merrily, crossing her fingers.

I think it is sad that she thinks that she will be eliminated next. But, I like the fact that she said that her intuitions were usally not correct 😆. I really hope she is wrong and I wish that she stays longer on the II3 platform.

I have seen in a couple Sify interviews too that she is very defensive about Patna, and I think that it is commendable how she is guarding identity well instead of going with the flow and axing out Bihar. You go, girl!!

Deepali definitely is very confident and she is a true diplomat and knows what to say when. She is good celebrity material 😳.
