Absolutely, undoubtedly, positively Aishwarya should have been in this LC contest. I found some of the parents comments very lame specially Pawny's father's comment about "Aishwarya being on Steroids" 😆 Whats up with that??? Anyways done is done and she can take part next year but I was extremely happy to hear her sing again. God bless her!!!!!!
The only thing that stood out of yesterday's episode was Aishwarya's singing, great singing no question, if she was a contestant she deserved a triple A+
However got to disagree with my friends here this time around
Rules are Rules
The contest already started one contestant has been eliminated(whether the contestant is worser than Aishwarya is not the point). If Aiswarya has to be included, they should bring back the eliminated contestant, and restart
Take for example II-2, a contestant was brought into the 2-3 round and he ended up making the top 4/top 3. The judges gave him a pass in the first couple of rounds just to get his bearings straight, these things happen when you bend rules
This all is supposition that Aishwarya would have breezed through, what is to say she might have had a bad day and gotten eliminated? The guy who was eliminated has also sung great earlier, so these things happen. If you take only yesterday's episode(in the US) Pawni sang the worst(my opinion offcourse), does that mean she is the worst singer of the lot?
Best thing is have Aishwarya wait till the next round of Lil' Champs(that might be a year or two away) and she is will not miss out on that b'cos of age.
Our dear Gajubhai very well knew this is very good for TRP's, he exactly knew the parents reaction. He still went ahead with it, why? this is going to make newspapers Series is going to get more popular, TRP's are going to be great doesnt matter if it is over a parent's anguish and a child's heartbreak, There is money to be made
Just an opinion, you can have your own, This was mine
