Twinkle was good in expressions only but hardly appealed to me with her singing. She was also greatly supported by good catchy music. Wheras Himani sang a more difficult number. And going by the advantage once she had because of choosing a more difficult number when Swnanda had also sang sooooo well, I guess Himani should have been in. I wonder how same singer gets advantage both ways when she sang tough one and when she did not! I do not like her attitude as well. When mentors were criticising on he singing, she was giving a strange kind of facial expression as if she did not care much about them! The biggest problem she has crated fo herself is that AS and JL both do not like her so much and if she needs a break they are the ones who make tunes suited to her. She can be at the best an item number singer. Himani will come back and give her a fight someday. Twinkle will be exposed moment same song she is asked to sing together with others. She chooses songs of her own comfort and we will see her "real" performance when she will be given fight on equality.
Among boys, Debu was good but he has been always without feelings. IMHO, these four singers and Irfan are not going to make to the final four. But let us see. Rajev is very unpredictable. I know he sings "besura" but believe me, his voice has a very different kind of "kashish" and that mesmarizes anyone. He is "truest" and "natural" singer. He will go a long way among all of these contestants. There will be many such challanges (2006, 2007...like Antakshari..may be for next 10 years, Zee is known to extract as much as they can!),and evey year there will be few winners but rarely one would come across singers of Rajeev's calibre. He is "the" find of Challange 2005, IMHO.
But I felt that Debu deserved yesterday, so I voted for Debu and Himani.
