I just finished watching today's episode of FG (for us NRIs), and I was so shocked at the way Ila told Shamit that the only reason she saved him was because the friends had already called on Shamit's name. That was so unfair - how can she discourage Shamit like that?! Shamit deserved to be saved, he sang very, very, very well. I thought he sang better than Arpita, but since the Judges chose her, I think the faculty should have happily saved Shamit because he deserved it - not because the other students had said he should be saved. The way she said it was very blatant and rude, and I felt for him when he started crying. She did absolutely nothing to boost his courage, instead she totally discouraged him. And then she said "I didn't mean to hurt you". Ha. Hurt was interwoven in her every syllable, and I bet she knew that. That was very mean of her.
