It is time and again proved that there is a polarization of north and south and that north considers that south is lowe. And in fact there are some people who think that there is only one city in the south and that is , Madras (Rem ..Madrasi???). I am not sure what should I be upset about ..the geography knowledge? or the tainted opinion? In any case both are pitiful. Today Shreya Ghosal comes and meets all the participants going ga ga about all and about Hemchandra she talks as if he has come from an alient planet (not that it matters what Shreya says ..I am talking about the respect for the situation and the stage in maintaining same tempo and excitement about each participant). She says .." Hemchadra ..you sing very nice ..make south proud" ..Haaa why can't he make India or Hyderabad proud. Can you see that feeling of 'south' inadvertantly? Folks ..I know some of teh intelligent brain would be trying to comment that I am trying to pull some unnecessary details which didn't exist or noone felt that way. Well, I would like to elave it to others to analyze and see what it is. I felt sorry to know Shreya didnt feel like saying something like ' you are hyd biryani or whatever' .. who teh heck are you trying to fool gurus? :)))

Quite many North Indians support Hemchandra, but it seems your eye is critically injured, inability to see truth hence such comments.

Well.. I am not talking about exception love and peace for all. Stop playing that philathropic face ..'I see postive side of life' etc. There are exceptions to everything. My comments never mean there aren't good nothies who think fairly ..there are excellent people .. neither it means that all southies are goodies. We are talking about a general perception ok??? More so to remind people it is time they shred such things. The parameters for measuring talent should be defined impartially and carried out impartially. What the heck diction has to do with singing talent? Bengalis or for that matter nepalis have a true diction? nahin naa? so?? it's ok. Ye south se hai naa ..thoda diction theek nahin ..BS!

I think that Shreya made that comment because there are no more
contestants from the south left. I think that most musically knowledable
are fans of Hema regarless of any regional bias.

Well, I agree partially with Foobar. Anyways I didn't mean that 'somehow' a south indian should win. I was only annoyed about the perception creeping into the deciders. It's not just that north or south perception creep, it is equally annoying that there is a boy girl factor too. Look at those guys (mentors and the chief guest) cheering the girl singers mindlessly ( I am not saying they didn't sing well ..they were good) and one guy even going upto the stage to hug her. Well, I really didn't hear much about a 'not so old' guy hugging a young girl to say 'shabhashi' on the stage. Hmmm is it Indian? Why couldn't he think that a pat on teh back could do an equally effective job? and those guys there giving 10-10-10 ( I knew that was coming the moment I saw Sanjay applauding for the girls with his hands high in the air ..ofcourse these mentors had to give those numbers ..yaar sanjay se projects ki ummeed jo hai) And Vineet. Comeon guys ..he is a good singer. But at least the mentors should know what it is like to be a 10-10-10 singer. Anyways it is irritating to hear ID addressing the girls 'tu ..tu ' in singular ...
Today not only Vineet had a coarse voice (like he screamed at a party a lot the previous day) but he faltered in picking the pitch at a couple of places. Hema's is the most stable and original voice. He has control over his tone and tune. If the mentors can't motivate the participants with a broader vision, they should atleast demoralize.

Look at the following analysis by 'Parineetha' in another thread. It is so true.
-------------------------------------------------------
I agree to this. I feel that the bramhastra round and agnipath round is also very unfair to these artists. Shows like these, which have jantha voting, are making these contestants act like beggars and politicians begging for votes. Sorry if I'm crude, but that's how I feel. This is a total mockery of music. Till before bramhastra I enjoyed the show a lot. Now I have totally lost interest on this show. With jantha voting they will be a lot of discrepancies, few of which would be
1) Everybody won't have an equal chance to vote because of multiple voting.
2) By revealing the region and financial status of the contestants there is always public sympathy and bias to certain contestants.
3) It is so clear on this show that all of the contestants are not equally being promoted.
4) People who don't have slightest knowledge of music will get to vote.
And the list could go on....
After all this, guess I'm an optimist, I wish, may the best talent win.
----------------------------------------------------
So organizers ..there isn't anything for a guy who tramples all in the initial rounds with ALL greens and then loses in the end just coz someone's vote who possibly doesnt have much knowledge or 'ear' for music? Think about a 'weighting' system folks ..atleast in the final rounds. There is nothing wrong in crowd wanting their region guy winning but the mentors and the voters should not.

why are you using swear words, we are not here for this.
You have been blinded by hatred, therfore it is difficult for you to understand our love & support for Hemachandra.
Just quit watching the show and do raham on South & North India ek saath. Thanks in advance.
