Before season 12 I last watched Indian Idol several years ago. I don't know the season number, but I think that's the season when Sreeram won / came runner up. There were a few good singers in that season. I seem to vaguely remember that there was a bit of drama even in that season - and I now realize that must have been intentionally created.
I have watched that, then that X Factor, and Amul something where Aniket was (that's how I remember his name), and then I don't know which serial or which year, but the one which had Aishwarya Majmudar and Anwesha were there. And then there was one show / year of Nihira Joshi.
Those three last named above were just mindblowing. I think individually they could have gone on to rule the airwaves, but they suffered from an accident of history that they came on the scene just as Shreya Ghoshal was starting to lift off.
And before that Sa Re Ga Ma many years (decades?) back.
In all these years, there are a few names that have stuck in the mind. Like Vineet, Sonakshi (from her II Junior days), Anwesha, Aishwarya, Bela, Sanjeev.
But nothing like season 12. I think I have become a life long fan of Pawandeep and Arunita - as individual artists, regardless of their off screen lives.
Especially Arunita - I think she is surely capable of rising as much as Shreya Ghoshal, but as we have seen many times in the past, luck plays a part in getting the right opportunities.
