Before I watched Indian Idol I saw people in this forum posting negative comments about Neha. I had a preconceived notion about her because of that and thought probably she's not that good in singing but when I watched her sing 'dekhle' on result round I was surprised to see her sing so well. In fact, I don't agree with Monalika when she said Neha didn't sing well. Monalika is my favourite but I still don't agree with her. In fact, Neha was the only one who sang very well that day and she has great stage presence too.
I can only request members not to spit venom on somebody just b'coz she's somebody's sister or she dresses up or looks in some peculiar way. She could have very well used her sister's influence to become a singer without going through grilling rounds of Indian Idol...but she still thought to make it on her own and that is quite laudable. I think as responsible viewers we should judge contestants on their singing and performance abilities and not their looks or try to relate them to someone whom we hate. Don't make Neha another Arpitha coz' she's not like Arpitha. I think neha has a very cool attitude which shows very much on the screen. She kept smiling and hugged Monalika and other contestants in spite of Monalika expressing her reservations on her singing abilities. I think Neha deserves a fair deal by the viewers.
