Indian Idol 14 - Performance Discussion (4&5 Nov'23) - Page 3

Agree with you . @Raina101 views are so unbiased and honest.

A benchmark for the music critics.

Ananya, Shubhadeep and Piyush got my votes today. Honestly speaking though, it was phenomenal and excellent episode. I cannot believe how good Mithoon and the songs he has composed!

Well we are here and I did see your one post during theatre round and I thought I would see you in premier episode discussion thread but didn’t see you. Also thought you might be busy since it’s a festival season. Same here so far I am liking it hopefully it will continue like this without having much drama and we don’t get boring performances from contestants.

I intend to watch the rest of the show regularly (missing 1-2 episodes at most). I agree this time it’s not so melodramatic and I’m so happy to have Hussain back.

I mean it. I still remember your views regarding Sireesha and Sayli when they were not so popular with the audience as well as in Idol 12.

Today Sireesha is a living example of outstanding merit despite an illogical and biased eviction.

Truly respect your views.

Haven't been able to watch Sunday's episode yet but again have a complain with Sony that they are not showing the judges feedback properly and cutting them out .Reborn-re had posted earlier about two feedback videos Sony had uploaded on their insta profile. They completely edited out Vishal's feedback to Anjana about not pronouncing the words properly and how singers these days should learn the meaning of the lyrics too. They also showed only a part of Shreya talking about unlearning what you've learnt while singing some songs after Gayatri's performance. If you observe Gayatri and her singing, her performance last week went flat towards the end where she couldn't control her breath. She had tears in her eyes at the end of the performance and I think even she knew her ending wasn't good and probably Shreya's comment of unlearning was connected to that. Yet Sony edited out the whole feedback.

What's the point of a singing show when you're editing out feedback from the judges? Unlike what we thought earlier, the judges are clearly giving feedback but Sony isn't showing it in the main show. What's the point of uploading it as an extra on insta where people don't even have proper context of what the feedback is about? They used to do the same on IBD. Whenever a performance would fall a bit flat or they would make a mistake, they would immediately cut to the judges unless the mistake is dramatic enough for them to use it for TRPs. The channel needs to chill. The contestants are talented, they can make mistakes. The channel doesn't have to show how their contestants are perfect to the T. Its the feedback which makes these shows more real.

Loved the Mithoon episode! I hadn’t realized that he had composed so many of my favorite songs in recent times! I genuinely enjoyed his commentary he was very insightful

also Shreya and Sanu da singing Tum Hi Ho was such a delight and her bit with Maithli singing the opera

Just caught Saturday's episode because I was busy on the weekend and only got the chance to watch this episode today. Long story short I really liked it.

Muskan did good. She's usually great, so she wasn't up to her standards this time. Maybe it was the song choice, maybe something else. Everyone can have an off day and it's not like she did bad or anything.

Gayatri, man. There's something addictive about her voice. It's so minty. It's not something you want all the time, but there's something that keeps drawing you back to it.

Shreya's performance, uff. Always the best medicine.

75 year old Mahesh Bhatt used the word erotic on Indian television. What a legend.

Dipan is always excellent. I worry about how long he'll last on the show but I hope he's there until the end.

Maithili was magical once again. She's been consistent every week and is so likable. I am rooting for her to make the finale.

Vaibhav's versatility shocked me. Two very different song types, both terrific. He is a jokester but so, so good.

Menuka transcends this entire show. This season is the best season of any adults show I've seen since maybe 2008, and she is on her own level She is that naturally amazing. At the same time I am so grateful that she is on this show to get this spotlight. She turned Mahesh Bhatt into a relatable and humane person for five minutes. She deserves the world.

Surendar always does fantastic. I can hear him every episode and I will never tire of his voice or performances. I say this every week and I mean it every time.

Anjana was tolerable, even really good at times. She allmost derailed herself multiple times but she showed restraint and stayed on track. If she can keep doing that it would be most welcome.

Ashutosh Rana is the GOAT.

I'm glad they did a medley to end the show. Mahesh Bhatt movies always have memorable soundtracks and they could gave done a month's worth of shows on them alone. Some of those songs are so legendary that everyone deserves to sing them together, instead of one singer getting that opportunity. It was a good way to wrap up an excellent episode.
