Second round of Agnipariksha –2nd day
Raktima is out and now we have 11 contestants. Raktima was shown as saying that she will prove herself and will be back.
Today the theme is song of your favorite star and the special guests tonite are Gulshan grover and koena mitra.
The first singer for the day is Paresh from HR's gharana- his fav hero is Shahid kappor and he chooses a song….makhnawe…maine jaana…..not as good as expected. His last performance was very good …this one was a let down….his voice did not sound very good…
The mentors seemed to have liked his performance. The mentometer (now only green with 1-10 range) for him is 6, 6, 6.
Next is Ujjaini whose fav heroine is Preety zinta and she sings it's time to disco- again a not very good performance- she is capable of much more (zee is spoiling these for performance- they do not sing properly – lay too much of importance to performing)- I think she was below average today- shaky voice- some sur problems as well.
The mentometer gives her 6, 8 6. (the eight is obviously from her old mentors- JL).
HR's prodigee Vinit (that is how the sms needs to be sent) is the next singer. His fav hero is Emraan hasmi and the song- aapki kashish from ashiq banaya apne….good singing but somehow the feel was lacking …..i think he can do much better.
HR said that if he had sung this song live (he is the original singer), he could not have sang better than this (somehow I don't think this is a compliment!). The mentometer reads 8, 6 9. (the mentometer getting a little confusing as they are not showing the whole thing now).
Hemachandra is the first singer from jaiho gharana and his fav hero- saif ali and the song My dil goes mmmm from salame namaste- beautiful singing- not a spb-yesudas song but he does very well- original singing- perfect sur- perfect feel- he is one of the best bets.
AS is obviously very happy. The mentometer shows that the other mentors are also very happy with his performance- 8, 9, 10 (jl, id, hr).
Himani's fav actress is kareena kappor and she chooses bhaage re man..from chameli. Ok singing- I thought she was a little shaky on the lower note…her voice was not very clear….a litlle more feeling is required…not much clarity.
AS is all praise for her and the mentometer gets her 9, 7, 8…..
Akshay is Rajiv's fav actor (we are told about the similarities- both cooks , akshay's real name rajiv….) and he sings vaada raha ….good feel…..ok singing….much better than the last one…..but not comparable to hem..
AS says that he is probably the most popular contestant (does not talk about his singing). The mentometer says 9, 8 , 8. I am surprised by his score.
Swananda from JL's gharana is the next singer and her fav actress is rani mukherjee and the song chosen is Gore gore se chore from hum tum. Good singing, clean singing, good emotions (the naughty song is all there without her trying to dance)…very good comeback- her voice is certainly very good.
Jatin mentions that her singing had no error and she sounds like asha in her youth. The mentometer – 8, 7,7.
Sharib is the next one and I can't believe this but his fav star is Emraan. The song- kaho na kaho- not his kind of song but does well. The Arabic lyrics are sung very clearly- he did slip on sur in few places but overall ok performance.
JL are happy with his performance. The other mentors are also…..scores are confusing but I think it is 8, 7, 9.
Nihira is the next singer and her fav Rani and the song Chup chup ke- perfect singing- can't comment – it was just too good- no error, perfect pitching, perfect feel….very very good.
Ismail comes and gives her a flower….says that she is the first singer to touch his heart today and he is not saying this because she is from his gharana but is proud that she is from his gharana. She gets a perfect ten from all the mentors.
Debojot's fav actor is shahrukh khan and the song- tumhe jo maine from Main hoon na. Good singing again from debojit- nothing much to comment – quite good (after nihira- it did not seem that good but was very good).
ID said that this small town guy has really improved and is now a good performer as well. The mentor score…a little confusing but I think it was 8, 8 , 9.
Twinkle is the last performer- pyar to hona hi tha – a kajol song. Bad singing- trying too much attitude- voice sounded bad, nothing in the song.
ID said that she should concentrate on her singing- all this is going to her head and before it is too late – she should realise it as he knows she can sing well. He does not want to praise her wrongly as it will spoil her life. Jatin praises ID and says that he respects ID now even more. Her ratings are not too good.
So who will be eliminated next week. I think it might be between Ujjaini and Twinkle (they were the worst singers)….will it be one of the boys…it can be Rajeev????
