Judges Round: Sadhana Sargam

Reminder: This Round the people that post their ratings in threads (with at least a sentence of reason) will have their ratings counted MUCH more than just a poll vote.

lovely song with very little scope 4 the singer to improvise giving it an 8.5

Amazing, Magical, and Outstanding singing by Sadhna Sargam this round!

She starts off the song, showing her strong classical base,
Ge Ge Re, Ge Ge Re, Ge Re Ge Me Ge Re
Re Re Sa, Re Re Sa, Ni Sa Ni
handles this with ease, and gives us a preview to this magical song.

Then comes the main sequence
Ghunji Si Hai Sari Fiza Jaise Bajti Ho Shehnaiyaan
Leherati Hai Mehki Hawa Gungunati Hain Tanhaiyaan
Sab Gaate Hain Sab Hi Madhosh Hain
Hum Tum Kyun Khamosh Hain
Saaz - E- Dil Chedo Na
Chup Ho Kyun Gaavon Na
Aao Na.. Ao Na... Aao Na... Aao Na...
What magical singing by Sadhna Sargam. Great clarity, great job going higher at the end of each of the first few lines, then, and just excellent singing through this whole first sequence. It was just very smooth, clear, and flawless singing. Excellent expressions given throughout as well. Also, she sang it slowly, and you wonder what makes this singing so magical? How does singing become magical? Well as your singing slow, it's all the little things you add to the song, which Sadhna Sargam does throughout this sequence.


Then the post-main sequence,

Tan Man Mein Kyun Aise Behti Huyi
Thandi Si Ik Aag Hai
Saason Mein Hai Kaisi Yeh Ragini
Dhadkan Mein Kya Raag Hai

Yeh Hua Kya Humein Hum Ko Samjhaoo Na...(2)
Sab Gaate Hain ...Khamosh Hain
Dil Mein Jo Baatein Hai
Hdton Pe Laoo Na
Aao Na... Aao Na...
great high pitches, continues to maintain crystal clear clarity, excellent voice quality and control, nice change of tempo, and excellent expressions. And once again, the singing was just magical, and it goes back to all the little things she does to her voice to make it so magical. I also liked how she sang "Samjhaoo Na" the 2nd time she went through it. Very nice. But great display from Sadhna Sargam, excellent control on sur.


When Udit Naryan comes, he just didn't have the magic in his voice that Sadhna Sargam had in this song. Just listen to how she sings every line, all the way to "Aaaao Naaaa". Wow.




Overall, excellent singing by Sadhna Sargam! Excellent voice quality, expressions, great high pitches, gave also a classical touch, good tempo control, and overall magical singing. Usually when judging a song we look at how much the singer had to go through, though she did have some difficult sequences, in this song it's really how much magic she added to even the simple sequences. Anyone else singing this and would be just good. But Sadhna made this song magical. I can't imagine anyone else singing it. And for that




Rating: 10/10

Flawless singing, in the beginning she sang sargams with perfection. The Sathai starts with gunji se hai saari fiza, excellent singing folks, can't ask for anything better, thus 9 out of 10

Honeslty, For a moment I thought it was Alka ji singing. I never even knew all these years that it was Sadhana ji singing this song.

Ahhhh...one of my favourite songs from Sadhna ji..

She creates a resonating environment with the beauty of her voice. The way she lightly leaves the finishing notes is beautiful. I loved the delicate expressions rendered by Sadhna ji. In a few parts there is a shrilling sharpness in her high notes. Otherwise, she handled the song really well, emphasizing well on the words and their connotations. She definitely creates an impact on the listener with her wonderful slight variations in the song and her magical voice texture. Soothes the ears truly, fantastic expressions.

So, I will give this performance a 9.5 out of 10.

Love this song! I too didnt know that Sadhanaji has sung the song, first I used to think it is madhushree or someone. I loved the emotions she bought in the song.

I enjoyed listening to Sadhanaji & after listening to Aao naa I feel she definitely deserves to be in the finals. Good expressions & good control over voice. I ll rate it a 9.5, she deserves it!

Very good singing and expressions here! This is a song i love!
