THIS WEEK : VIEWS

Which performances did every one liked most? Have you already made any favourite contestants? This year's Indian Idol, I am enjoying too much, so much sometimes I just enjoy without rating contestants. yet, I loved Mohit, Revanth, Khudabaksh, Malvika, Shravan the most.

This week I found the performance of Maalavika-Hardeep pair the best followed by Kudha-Revanth and Shravan- Tajender. In Shravan-Tajender case, both are good singers with different voice qualities. But the voices didn't blend so well and one could notice Tajender went off pitch in one or two instances. Both are shy in nature and thus performing should be challenging for them. M/Rohits' too was a wrong cordination and voices didn't blend so well which literally pushed Rohit to danger zone.

Saturday - clearly Revanth was outstanding, no one came close.
However I didn't agree with shravan being safe and Tajinder unsafe, other than that was ok.
Sunday - Rohit's performance was horrible. I understand his problem, but listening to his performance was an ordeal. And he couldn't memorise lyrics. Pronunciation is one thing that will take a while to master, but forgetting lyrics should be marked down drastically.
Mansi and Jeli were far better than Rohit today. He is an amazing singer otherwise but each day must be taken as it comes.

Two human rights moments that stood out for me was when Karan Wahi lent his shoulder to Khudabaksh and said rote nahin hain. The second was Revanth getting up to hug Rohit. I've absolutely loved Karan (since his remix days) and that Revanth is my favourite is obvious on the forums, but today respect for them has grown.

People's opinions differ so do the judges'. Tajender was clearly off pitch yesterday specially in low notes. I was predicting he might be in danger zone and he was. It was like he was concentrating more onto the performance than the singing hence the slip. What went wrong in Mohit- Rohit performance is the partnership. It wasn't a match at all-be it voice quality or pitching.

agreed Tajinder was off pitch yesterday, but comparatively I thought he was better than shravan yesterday. Let's just hope the best person wins

As a neutral viewer, I would say Shravan's singing was clean- rhythm, pitching etc, though his stage performance was not impressive!!

I beg to differ.
But then we're different people so that's normal

Why this format of two singers singing the same song is repeatedly used. It was clearly a disadvantage talented singer like tajinder and rohit because comparison can be made easily, also i think the song ended even before some contestants could blend or conquer the song. Personally I feel this duet format will work for male female songs more thus it was certainly favoured hardeep malavika.

Since some are openly favouring their fav and their gestures, I too would like to share that credit must be given to shravan and tajinder for breaking stereotypes by singing songs out of their comfort zones. I liked mohit confidence and dominance too.

I didn't like the teasing of hardeep malavika but one can surely notice the growing friendship between the two and also shravan who was genuinely happy to see hardeep qualifying to top 8.

Coming to sonu nigam as TM mentioned, he is the one of the best singer India has produced. period. Today there are many budding singers but never can match his charisma voice texture skills and dominance of a song.

Finally I hope drama and sob stories favouring certain contestants should end. If you notice clearly some even started to force their cries...

From Saturday's episode I thoroughly enjoyed Malvika - Hardeep and Khudabaksh - Revanth a lot. And, Sunday I don't have anything to say. Though I felt Rohit was atrocious to say the least. He forgot the lyrics so many times. Loved Karan and Revanth giving moral support to Khudabaksh and Rohit.
