Javed- Sonu same pinch?

Two singing reality shows will soon hit Indian television. Sa Re Ga Ma Pa on Zee and X factor on Sony. X factor which is the Indian format of an international singing series has Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal and Sanjay Leela Bhansali as the judges. Zee TV's Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs has Adnan Sami, Kailash Kher and Javed Ali as the gurus and Alka Yagnik as the Maha guru. Since they are both singing reality shows comparisons between the two will happen though they have different formats. And one such parallel has already cropped up just days before the shows go on air.

Almost everyone who has seen promos of Sa Re Ga Ma have found a striking resemblance in Javed Ali's look to that of Sony Nigam on the Sony show. Javed's attire and mannerisms on the show are almost 'same to same' as that of Sonu Nigam. It is the first time that Javed is judging a show on television so everybody from the channel to the production house is making sure he looks glamorous and very stylish. But in their enthusiasm to do this he has ended up looking like the diva himself-Sonu Nigam.

We quizzed Javed about this strange co-incidence and he agreed, "A few people have told me this and now I will have to work on this. Until now I dressed the way I do in real life. Moreover I am here to judge singers and my look on the show is not that important."

We like this honesty. Good beginning!

Personally I love Javed more ... never had known about him before lil champs, but the humble attitude of his is what stands out for me. Also the way he talks - awww he is the best!

Sonu is really an awesome singer and has a huge fan following. He is fun guy (imitates singers) - but I see a different sonu ever since old SRGMP. I feel he has really changed, may be is now more comfortable and is able to connect with audience on different level.

Sonu was great judge in Chhote Ustaad , i know he can be a gerat judge but now XFactor doesntshow hsi comments on performances in details ,as far as i have seen the show but in chote ustaad he was explaining every single mistake so easily and in detail so that kids can understand easily and they gained our msuic knowledge too . So for me he's a great judge its depends on Channels and ppl who are directing and managing the show .
As far as Javed is concerned , he is a great singer, i listen to his music so much , love his songs and his voice is so ramntic and distinct ! If we take this debut of Javed as a judge , then he is a great at that and gradullay he will improve :)
