Really nice to hear about Monali! This girl is awesome, in indian idol 2 had never noticed her much. But I must say she has achieved what no other indian idol contestant could by far. Though her voice might not be fit for romantic songs, Her song "Zara zara touch me" was a superhit, I loved it! She has a kind of seductive voice texture which is a USP for her!

I honestly think in all 4 seasons of Indian Idol, she is the only singer who was able to achieve the fame and recognition a singers needs. Even the Idols who won, didn't get their share.

It's sad that there are tons of sings out there who are actually better than most of our Indian idol kids. I think Indian Idol needs to work harder when they train (during the show) their singers.
Last year, i had a really hard time watching Indian Idol, because I was already watching Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. It was hard for me to transition from really good singers to kid singers.
and back to Monali, she was only able to get that, because of the connections with Pritam and her bengali background. But there is no doubt that she is a great singer.

I dont know if Karunya can be called a success in Telugu industry, but he is finding steady work there. He has quite a few songs to his name and some of them are hits. He did sing for most of the leading heroes in Tollywood.
I think he must have atleast 30-40 songs to his credit in the last 3 years.
