Ek Main Aur Ek Tu pays tribute to one of Bollywood's legendary composer Naushad Ali. Ishitta begins today's elimination episode saying a few lines that Naushad had penned just before he died last week.
Babul Supriyo with Shaan and Ishita
In an episode that starts with Shaan handing over a set of envelopes to the judges saying the jodis performed better last week knowing the results at the end. The hosts Shaan and Ishitta wanted the same format to continue this time too. But, the judges decided to bowl a 'new age googly' by deciding to reveal all results first.
Only, they were stumped instead as Shaan had given them the wrong set of envelopes. The participants had confided all their naughty childhood pranks that they had indulged to Shaan. And, it was now with the judges who go on to reveal to India the fun, naughty side of each participant.
As suspense builds up on who is going to be eliminated, the format veers to comedy to reduce the stress for the participants. The Groovy Gurus, Hariharan and Leslie Lewis set the pace in this episode and ask the jodis to perform as per the judges rankings received last week. After their performance, each is asked to reveal any childhood antic and watching their embarrassed faces as the Groovy Gurus spill it all takes away the tension of performing resulting in the jodis belt out their songs to perfection.
Babul goes overboard as he appears at the end with the results and sings away as he hands over India's decision to the jodis. Maybe, he was trying to let the world know that he will make a good host or maybe, he was just happy to be part of this music talent hunt show. Either which way, the jodis benefitted as they got a chance to hear another talented singer from the industry.
