I see a sizable number of people on this forum hate Asma.
Asma gets votes because there are plenty of people out there who find her attractive, and don't really care how she sings. Is this really Asma's fault ?
Week after week, Mentors including Shankar, keep praising her despite her pathetic singing, and believe me, there are plenty of voters out there who get swayed by mentor's comments and ratings. So Is this really Asma's fault ?
All reality shows are about TRPs and Revenues, there is no channel out there who is doing this purely for the greater good of the society. To gain higher TRPs, they need to keep viewers interested, not just those (most of us on this forum would fall in this category) who watch the show purely for enjoying some good singing, but more importantly those who send in votes. A majority of these latter group ones need some action on the show, not just plain singing. Zee appears to be gaining a lot by keeping Asma on the show. Hence they keep coming up with ways to get Asma going with her silly antics. I am sure even Asma realizes that she does not deserve to be in top 14 but why blame her when she is there because of others...... viewers, voters, mentors and more importantly, Zee.
Do you expect her to be so magnanimous that she should walk up and quit on her own because she is not as good as the others ?
And mark my words, Zee will not make her the winner. Zee will bring in the true talent for the finals. But until then, they just want to sustain the interest in the show.
So why all this hatred towards her when she is merely a puppet in the hands of Zee ?
Let me conclude by saying I'm not at all a fan of Asma...and I watch the show only because I get to hear some excellent singing from Pratibha, Zaheer and sometimes, Yashita.
I just felt that all this hatred towards Asma is unwarranted and hence this post.
