Grand Finale
The Final episode started with a bang when Dean Palash sang Fame X theme song 'Chal Udiye' along with all the sixteen contestants. Fame Kudi Shilpa then welcomed the judges Daler paji and Ganesh Hegde on the show. Today both the faculty members Dean Palash and Sowmya were seated next to jury. For the final episode Shilpa requested the two stalwarts Palash and Daler to bury the hatchet by giving each other 'jadoo ki zappi'. Daler explained that there really wasn't any animosity between the two and Palash supported it by saying that the arguments were always based on student's welfare and not on personal issues. Shilpa asked some of the ex Fame X-ians how life was after leaving the Academy. Adi thanked Palash mentioning how this has changed his life. Vidhan had gotten a chance to sing for a Bhojpuri film and Arunima complained that her friends keep asking her for Fame X-ian's autographs. Dean Palash mentioned how wonderful it was being with Shilpa all this time and a small montage was seen depicting how true it was. Those were glorious moments of the Fame Kudi that confirmed that apart from being so beautiful she was also a very warm hearted person. Rehan gave his last solo performance in the Academy by singing 'Lagan lagi'. Daler again mentioned how wonderful a singer Rehan was and Palash said that Rehan's voice was bridge to divinity. Sowmya got on the stage for the first time and along with Anandrupa sang her famous song 'Nach Baliye'. She admitted that it was nice feeling to sing with one of her favorite students. So far the students had lived in the Academy and a small video was shown of their moments together. Categorized under different title like Music, Romance, Friendship, Laughter and Tears they were moments to cherish indeed and the Fame X-ians will never forget them. Shilpa asked the jury and faculty what were the most unforgettable moments. For Ganesh it was the evictions and for Sowmya it was families at the time of evictions. For Daler it was the funny moments and for Dean Palash it was learning. Anandi sang 'Piya tu' as her last solo at the Academy. Her friend Ritu thought it was a very good performance and mimicked Sowmya while saying so. How could funnyman Banjo miss such an opportunity and he immediately grabbed the chance to mimic Daler paji who took it very sportingly. Neeti, as her last solo, sang 'Le gayi le gayi' proving once again that she was a complete package. Fame Kudi Shilpa invited the MTV judge Rannvijay to join the judges and faculty. Then she proceeded to open the envelope which contained the results. But to everyone's surprise it contained only one name. The name of the second runner up and it was Anandrupa. She had received 21% votes. The faculty had to do the sad duty to give her transfer certificate after which Anandi in true spirit mentioned that she had not lost and from tomorrow she will start another innings. For now she joined the ex Fame X-ians. Then Shilpa fished out two keys from the treasury box. They had labels of Ganesh and Daler on them. As Shilpa handed them the keys, a giant safe vault was brought on the stage. Both the jury members used their keys to open it and pulled out another envelope. This one contained the winner's name. After some suspenseful moments Shilpa finally revealed the name of Fame X Champion - REHAN KHAN ! He had received 53% votes while Neeti got 26%. An obviously elated Rehan hugged his Fame X friends and sought blessings from his mother who was present for the occasion. Always a nice boy at heart, he didn't forget Neeti and lifted her up for the audience to cheer her. He was presented the Fame X trophy by the eminent judges Daler paji and Ganesh.

Insisting that he would not sing his parting song without his buddies, Rehan got all the contestants on stage and sang his favorite numbers. The party was going on for quite a while and will continue till the next season of Fame X opens.

Rehaan's brush with fame

The 'Fame X' winner gets candid

After three months of intense grilling and trying to convince the world about his 'X' factor in the reality show 'Fame X' (SAB), Rehaan Khan has finally achieved what appears to be an opportunity to skyrocket his career.

What is the first thing that you want to do?
These three months were just the beginning. I want to get famous and make a name for myself in this industry. I want to make my parents proud.

What appealed about you to the audiences?
I really don't know what my 'X' factor was. I feel it's my ability to sing and perform simultaneously.

Which contestant were you extremely close to?
I was really close to Banjo (Priyadarshee Banerjee) and Rakesh (Sharma). We shared similar thoughts and hit it off well. These three months will always remain close to my heart. In fact, I have already started missing them both.

Who are you keen to work with in the industry?
I am extremely keen to work with composers Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and A R Rahman.

Who was the rudest judge?
Nikhil Chinappa was the rudest. He was the only one who gave me negative feedback. Still, everything worked out for the best.

With so many reality show winners how will you stand out?
The benefit of being a part of 'Fame X' is that even amidst a thousand people, I can stand out and create a niche for myself.

Rehan Khan from Mumbai is the winner of SAB's first reality talent hunt show Fame X. The show that looked for an X factor in a singer to make it as a rock star, Rehan walked his way to fame through 13 tough rounds spread over three months. He emerged winner despite tough competition from Rakesh and Aditya Jassi who he admits were serious contenders for the Fame X title.

The Fame X title is Rehan's ticket to fame. He has bagged a Rs 50 lakh contract from Sony-BMG, besides a big platform from Sony Entertainment Network and Visa International by way of an opportunity to sing the 'Inspire India cricket anthem' for the Indian cricket team competing in the forthcoming ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 to be held in West Indies in March. Rehan will also be the MTV artiste of the month. "It's a great feeling," gushes the singer who had developed interest in music during his childhood. It was his father who encouraged him to pursue his interest in music.

"I learnt tabla and started my training in singing. Two years back I started doing stage shows with 'Indian Idol' Abhijeet Sawant and contestant Rahul Vaidya. They were all praise for my talent and asked me to take part in a reality talent hunt show," says Rehan. Rehan is now nursing the dream of being a playback singer in films and having his own music band.
