Round 8: Anuradha Paudwal

Note: This is Dance Song Round

Anuradha ji's stint in this competition may just be short-lived.

7/10

Catchy but mishmashed track by Anu Malik. Uditji does an incredible job in the singing department, imparting freshness and vitality to all his lines - I was expecting a useless song, but Uditji's ad lib in the beginning made it all worth it! In fact, Uditji overshadows Anuradha throughout the song.

It's just a matter of comparing whether Anuradha was better than Alka in 'Chamma Chamma' for the race to second-last place...



EDIT: This song 'Yaar Mere Yaara Mere Yaaram' proves why Sameer should have stopped writing lyrics in the 90's...

I don't see why you say that. It had a very fast tempo in the main sequence, that is tough to keep up with, and then in the post-main sequences there are some very low notes and high ones too that really make Anuradha shine...It's a more difficult song than it seems

Did you not read my comments in the Alka Yagnik thread? Because of audience and CPR, the race became between Sunidhi and Alka. I don't know if Anuradha should be in this race or not. Well, I didn't think Sunidhi should've either 😕

Anuradha is a one-tone singer. Melancholy and bhakti ras suit her. Romance to an extent... Otherwise, not so much.

I'm talking about the race in MY points.

You're right dance songs are not her forte. But I still think there was a good mix of pace, and low/high notes, making this a good performance.

Kaano ka fark hain, nothing else. Anuradha ji's singing didn't make me dance. That's why one mark less than Chamma Chamma. Otherwise it would have been a 8. High notes aren't really that high I think.
Baaki there can be other technicalities which a layman like me might not have been able to found as you might have.
