Business is done differently there..

Besides many might sing good but lack personality or stage presence...Looks, mouth, teeth and dressing all part of the package..Appearence is very important..
In short Music-singing is utmost important but personality plays very key role...


I agree with you. I feel today the singers should try to break such barriers & try to come up with something of their own.
When it comes to private albums, the major hindrances are quality music, promotion, piracy, & lack of sponsorship. First of all if the songs are really good than the album will definitely work eg Sonu's album Deewana had really good songs & it click with the audience. Piracy will always be there, as we prefer downloading songs rather than buying a whole album cd. I dont think Sponsorship is a big problem at least not for singers like sonu, shreya, sunidhi, etc, they themselves must be having funds for that. I mean even reality show singer like abhijeet, rahul vaidya charge minimum 4 lakhs for performing in concerts, then these professional singer will charge atleast 20 lakhs, and they have atleast 2 to 3 concerts every month, plus they even go for abroad tours too. They have been singing for most of the movies for quite a long time now & they even get paid for judging reality shows. So I guess they should be wealthy enough to invest in their own album.

Pure music comes first ... who cares how Geetha Dutt/Kishore Kumar were - I just enjoy the music. That's because there wasn't as much 'live' exposure to the erstwhile legendary singers. In live reality shows arrogance/Iamthebest attitude puts me off.
I admit though that, it bothers me quite a bit when singers who are really good give a mediocre performance or choose songs which are a let down.😳 But, you can't overlook other singers who are consistently working hard to maintain/up their level of performance, even if they aren't ur faves.
