finally found a working link and watched the epi, nice i must say.Chhavi: today i wasnt as impressed as i was on saturday. She was good but not exceptional, i think when she was singing in two different scales, she was a little out of sur, but i can forgive that, its not easy. it was overall good.
then alisha came and sang it a while, and it was semi torture. Alisha has a very good voice modulation in low keys and low scales, but she cannot hold on to her notes when she goes to high notes and her pitches are like witches scream, now i know why people make fun of her singing, But when she started, i was , why people make so much fun, she has amazing modulation, like a jazz trained singer and i knew it within 30s.
Up next was kapil, wow he sounded just like Kishore, he was not that flamboyant with the sexy nasha wallah effect in voice but he was very near it.
Sachin had me in two minds, i wasnt sure what to think of it, at times it sounded like he is reciting a poem and at times perfect, so listened to the original again, its tough to do anything sung by ARR . After i listened it again, i thought it was really good rendition by sachin.
up next was mansi. props to her for attempting such a song, which has high keys and must be sung in high scale. I had just listened to the original in my ipod, she deserves all the credit for singing it. But she must stop trying to copy sunidhi, her voice sounded so artificial when she was trying the modulations. Her natural voice is so much better and has enough modulations, Not everyone can sing the way sunidhi sings. my only compaint for mansi is she tries to hard to emulate a voice type which is not really hers. a special mention to the high note niyaat kharab hain, i thought she might miss a note or a key, but she was perfectly tuned.
sumit sounded so much like shafqat when he was doing the lagne lagi, but his bin tere and antara were quite offkey i must say.
Overall enjoyable epi.
