The problem with this show is that they're trying to get the youngest lot possible. 5 yrs old? really? I mean, at that age, 70% of them are being forced to do it by their parents. You aren't really willing until maybe at least 12. But you know, that's my opinion. Maybe they are doing it willingly...it just doesn't seem likely at such a young age.
I don't think it's the parents fault. Here's the thing though, not all of them have musical knowledge. Abhijeet was just making fun of everybody. Yes, it's true they're taking the best and the people who are cut range from good to mediocre to just plain bad, but he made fun of everyone.
From some of the ones that were cut, some of them had bad song choice. It was obvious that if they had chosen a different song, they probably would have made it. The first boy that was cut was actually pretty decent, but then Abhijeet is like "What is the violentness in your voice" or some crap like that. It was only slightly, and that could be learned in like two minutes. He could have said, kid, don't say the line like that. try it again. or he could have said, i'm cutting you for that part, and i can't give you a second chance because i have a billion other people to audition. but going around like an idiot screaming, "Bachao Bachao" is just stupid. And one boy even said, "Don't make fun of me, just tell me if I'm bad." And Abhijeet just goes on making fun of him forcing him to sing three songs! Like if they're bad just say it instead of making them sing more than anyone else, leading them on, and making fun of them the whole time.
A lot of parents do think their children are good, you know blinded by love or whatever. They come in there smiling only to have their children made fun of IN FRONT of them. Who the heck has the nerve to do something like that?
I mean Alkaji just said, I'm sorry, I can't give you the medal. She didn't go on making fun of besuras or whatever. I think that if you're given the prestigious position of being a judge, you have a certain responsibility that goes along with it, and the parents are not wrong to expect that.
Also, a lot of them come from poor families so they have no idea how auditions work or tv or anything, but singing could be a big break for them and their children. Actually, most of the kids come from poor families with low expectations.
I do think that there is some respect that you should give your elders, but you MAINTAIN that respect if they are deserving. But I do agree if your elders are making fun of you, you have every right to say something witty back. But if they just cut you, then no, you should respect them.
