During elimination of Soniya Pritam indicated that they should get rid of eliminations at that stage as that affects the contestants most. More over they already got 5 best contestants and his logic of choosing the winner out of those 5 makes sense.
The real talent comes out only when challenged the present 5 were definately the best is atleast one episode. (There could be marginal exceptions...đ )
Insted of sending them home (even after soo long journey and struggle) why not make them sing and enjoy great music.....Hope Pritam succeed convincing whoever desides.
