Indian Idol 14 - Theatre Round Performance Discussion (21&22 Oct'23)

Discuss here...

Guys is it just me here who wants Kavita Krishnamurthy to join the judging panel too somehow ?? Really enjoying her presence in the theatre round.

Loved the performances and song selection in today's episode. I think all the performances shown were really good.

My favourite performances - Vaibhav, Muskan, Shubhodeep.

Menuka was fantastic too but the impact she made with her audition will not be easy to match.

Doctor singer Rohan seems promising too. Let's see if he's in Top 15 or not.

I liked that this time they are not giving golden mikes directly to too many singers just after their performances. Because they have very strong 30-40 contestants and competition is really tough, so it's better to take the decision after listening to all of them.

Theatre Round - Saturday

An awesome episode in terms of performances & choice of songs. 👌

My favourites - Gayatri & Muskan. Gayatri’s improvisations were beautiful & Muskan scored for me for rendering a very tough song perfectly with feel,

Kanpur guy & Dr. were also good.

Shubradeep is already in, but somehow I felt he put in too many harkatein. To be honest, it didn’t touch me the way Nishtha’s Albela did last week. But he was certain to be selected & will be a possible finalist.

Menuka was superb, there is so much purity in her voice, just listening to her gives a lot of sukoon.

I love Adya’s voice & it was another tough song rendered well, but. I felt that she went slightly off-key at some places.
Actually, I was surprised that they deferred the decision for Gayatri & Muskan; both were equally good as Shubradeep.

A lovely episode.

Made my day seeing Kavitaji & Bhattji on sitar. In fact it was like Sitar special with Bhattji in focus. 😊💕👌.

Kumar Sanu makes for a good judge, he is giving good feedback by pointing out flaws 👍.

Muskan’s sob story drama may be real, but the whole segment of ‘too choked to sing’ , ‘now alright to sing’ after video calling mom with the camera behind had me 🙄🙄,

Excellent review. Special mention on the bold part (mine).

All of these judges are really good.

Don't they usually have one more round in between the auditions and the theater round? There was a gala round in which they had to wind down to around 24-30 and then they had this round and they chose the top 14, I guess they must've done away with it. And agreed about Kavitaji she was a great judge and I hope she can come by and be 4th judge it would be nice to have two female judges for once.

Shubodeep? (the one who sang Albela Sajan) was too good but I agree that Nishta's performance in SRGMP was much better. Adya was good too but she did better in the auditions, her voice is so distinct that it makes up for any discrepancies.

The dude who sang Lagan Lag gayi he did very well but I'm SO SICK of that song being sung in every audition of every singing show like it's become such an overrated one for me (along with Kacche Dhaage and Layi Vi Nahi)

Muskaan was my fave pf the episode but the drama of not singing etc was a bit too much for me, I guess if they're not using Menuka's disability they're gonna use others for the drama

looking forward for tomorrow

I was expecting more from the "lagan lag gayi he" guy.. he sang so good in the audition but didn't do well in theatre round.. may be he would improve if given another chance although the competition is tough..
