Bappida Surprise Gift episode
A shimmering Bappida resplendent in midnight blue 😀 brought in the much needed zest to the show and the performances..👍. Good song selections too.
Arunitaaaaa - chand pe le gayi mujhe. ❤️❤️
I didn’t want to come back. This was one of the songs I had suggested for Aru in the Bappi Reena Roy thread. Just couldn’t believe my luck! Aao tumhe chaand pe le Jaye & Raat baaki - two different genres, two diff legends, back to back rendition catching the moods oh-so-perfectly ….. 👌👌👌👌. And that bonus bengali song was so beautiful.
Sayli - Jawaani Jaaneman is her comfort zone..Loved all 3 songs. 👍SMP - Enjoyed both the songs, esp the second one.
PD - loved both, esp Mana ho Tum, another fav of mine. All PD detractors need to give a shout out for this guy for singing while playing the tabla, which is one of the most intricate percussion instruments, and neither is the song easy! And guess what! He nailed it! Amazing. 👏👏👍Nihal - As usual a solid performance, loved the second one better. He has the easy breezy texture to his voice like the late SPB sir. 👍
Danish - Could see the old Danish today. 👍
Asides…..
* best dance move of the day - ‘jumping on hot coals’…. by pawandeep rajan…dekhiyega during sayli’s performance 😁
* Eye-roll comment of the day - by Sonu Kakkar to PD “ me , you, uttrakhand, hence trophy too to uttrakhand” 😳😳. Our expressionless banda bina expression se conveyed “ kuch bhi!” 😁 & moved on after a bow! And that’s when I said, ‘take a bow’ 😀👍
*Danish ne sahi kaha, his bro sings better than him. His voice has a smooth silky texture, hope he doesn’t get motivated by big bro to emulate his style. Btws, looks like at least 2 siblings are set for the next season - Danish’s bro & PD’s sis.
* Thank-God-for-small-mercies 👇🏽
Mamaji did not jump onto the stage to cavort for Ooh lala… I was sitting with bated breath & heart in my mouth 🙏😄
Anu Malik stopped whatever he was smoking 😁.
( somebody is lurking in IF, must’ve told him my feedback 😄). He did not ask PD to lug the tabla set wherever/whenever he goes to receive an award. Samir ji, pl note… 🤣. Otherwise imagine his plight, kya kya utake jaana padta apart from dholak. 😱🤨😄
* Editor aaya line pe. Looks like 1000 bucks kaat hi liya 😀🤣. There was no peek-a-boo of Reena Roy 🤨🤣🤣
* Food festival still on, it was Danish’s turn… still waiting for Masala Dosa for Nihal…. Pl…😁🤣
*Aru PD camaraderie is back. They are genuinely happy for each other, and the way Aru cheers for PD is so sweet, considering they are the 2 top contenders ❤️
* who all like the Guitarist and his swag? 😊👌* So sweet of Girish sir to give a standing ovation to PD’s tabla performance. 👍
* Finally, just as Adi said, a big thanks to Bappida for his compositions which made for a rocking episode. 👍👍. He is worth his weight in gold…. forget the pun 🤣
* it was such an enjoyable episode with the kids getting precious gifts, esp Aru & SMP. I watched the repeat also immediately - all were 👍.
