i am fully agree with mrspetloverus. from now on all 12 candidate should be voted for their singing performance, not for the facts that he is nri and don't speak hindi too well, or he came from remote village chamba, and she dropped one year from school , and he is the only candidate of that gharana etc. etc.
we should vote for only those who sings well.

voting shd be made only for 10 contestants .[not 12] paresh and ujjaini already reached final. out of ten whoever gets maxmimum percentage of vote will go to final. even paresh and ujjaini also crossed the bridge by public voting and reached to final [ by public voting.]. [now they need not face any public voting as their number 01 and 05 has been allotted to different contestants. [hemchandra and other one may be rakthima i am not sure.]

asha, you are mistaken.. the other 10 have already reached the finals.. paresh and ujjaini reached the finals after brahmastra.. now there are 12 finalists and via public voting the 2 final winner will be decided..

I think I should have explained about paresh and the story which I thought was pathetic. Him telling Salman that "salman was his inspiration. In HDDCS how he came from foreign country to india just to learn music". Now he could have said that in many other episodes before. But He just picked a good time (an opportunity) to relate Salman's movie story with what Paresh was doing. I guess may be you missed that part. I found that lame. This is my opinion.

Now that does not take away anything from what he has accomplished in this 4 months. I give him all the credit for being NRI and having language barrier he is still doing wonderful job. His singing does not show that this guy can't speak hindi. I have no problem giving him credit for all the things you mentioned in your post. I am also NRI so I do understand younger generation having difficulty of not only speaking their mother tongue but other languages like Hindi. Than again that should not be the deciding factor about him being best. Now all 12 finalist are equal & they should fight for their spot being #1 with their singing attributes nothing else.

Hope I explained myself. Thanks.

I think you have not seen tvsrgmp regularly. In one of the episode where jagjit singh was judge , he asked paresh where did he learn music for which he replied that he learned from ustad --[name i dont remember] the bandish, ghazal, bhajans and other light music in UK &nbs p; &nbs p;

As regard to 'paresh said that salman was his inspiration . there is nothing wrong . he must have watched salman's movie in UK and may have become his fan. [ since salman is the judge and he got the opportunity to express his mind which he got rarely] just like that any fan cannot go to salman's house so he took the opportuity to express his view on him with salman. [ for your information my son who is in US is also a salman's fan and he never miss his movie but my daughter-in -law is a fan of amitabh bachan and abhishek bachan and she never miss to c his movie] who knows a day will come that these three [paresh, himeshji and salman] may form a circle in the future . [like mukesh, rajkapoor, and shankar jaikishan] singing is nothing to do with speaking. shreya ghoshal, sadhana sargam and ashaji, uditnarayn's song's in tamil were a big hit but i dont think they can speak tamil. Please do not mistake me that I am unnecessarily arguing with u. That is not my intention, i am just clearing your doubt. and i just wanted to encourage these NRI boy who has taken so much interest in indian/hindi songs.[even though they are residing in abroad.] that I appreciate.

jayc , can u tell me what is paresh's and ujjani's latest number allotted As far as what I have observed is the total number allotted to contestant is 10 and there is no 11 and 12. moreover number 01 which was given to paresh has been transferred to hemchandra and ujjaini's number is also allotted to a girl. I think once again u see the repeat telecast of this episode on saturday at 4.30 pm or again on monday at 10.30 am , I will also watch again and after clearing the doubt i will let u know through this forum.

Yes jaya. now I agree with your views. i was little confused as the voting number for paresh and ujjaini was not shown/announced in the tv. yesterday night [friday] i heard paresh and ujjaini giving the different no to vote for them. that is 190 4424 7576 01 [paresh] and for ujjaini 190 4424 7576 02 . new no has been allotted to them .u r correct.

ritu I am sorry, u r correct. different number has been allotted to paresh and ujjaini . for paresh 190 4424 7576 01 and ujjaini 190 4424 7576 02 In my opinion paresh also sings well on the contrary though he is a nri his voice's clarity is very superb. ,yesterday sharib's , raajeev's songs were not impressive. may be bcos selection of the song was not good.

Sorry I disagree with your views. pl do not compare paresh with joyeetha. this guy has come from UK and he is also having language problem. when he came to India he used to speak one or two words of hindi in between his reply in english .now there is a lot of improvement in communicating with others. moreover he did not talk to salman on his own [like joyeeta] but he was replying to salman's questions. he is not able to talk even gujarathi well. Initially he used to reply to anybody whatever he feels.. unknowingly he was making these mistakes gradually he learned to reply in a humble way. even in the last episode he said to public that pl vote for deserving contestant . he did not even mention his name. I think joyeeta is very shrewed and her body language shows that she is a maska type for her need. but paresh is learning to be more matured and that improvement is very clearly visible. he appears to be very innocent and plain. so it will take some time for him to become shrewed. even sanchali was telling salman 'sir if u vote for me public's vote will follow for me' how come u hv missed to hear this dialogue . even ujjaini was telling salman when he appreciated her song as once more that 'sir I sang this song for u so pl vote for me' . after seeing all these probably paresh may hv felt that here everybody says such thing so he might hv felt that he shd say something like what others said that 'sir I am your fan' what is wrong with that. after all he copied from others. to say something like that or may be he is really a fan of salman. basically he appears to be very calm and quiet guy.

I agree with Asha ji completly. I felt that amongst all the contestants, Paresh was the most sincere of all. I think at most he said sir I am your fan... That is not a lame story.. If I missed anything.. let me know...

I think people underestimate Joyeeta.The first song she sang did not go down well with the mentors.She has a broad voice which is not good for all kind of songs but very good for some kind of songs.In the third round Swananda got the green card for 'lehraake lehraake'.Joyeeta sang 'Aayiyee,Aajaayiyee',Raktima sang a folk song.Based on that day's performance joyeeta is the second and Raktima is third.The next day joyeta and Raktima had to sing Ismail Durbar's songs.Those stupid songs did not suit Joyeeta's voice and Raktima was given the blue card.If Joyeeta was given the choice to chose songs from any other music director, the outcome might have been different.As far as story telling is concerned we must know that she suffers from an inferiority complex.She feels inferior to other singers.That is the reason why she talks much at the end.

I agree with you to an extent.. I also feel that in the bramhastra round, her singing was very good.. I think sometimes her actions and comments overshadow the singing potential that she has...

But I think Raktima just proved in the first round of the final why she deserves to be there.. She had a tough song and she carried it off brilliantly.. I think she was the best amongst all the 12 participants.. I wonder if Joyeeta could have sung at that level!

Rehman is not the first music director whose songs have been chosen for a given episode by the participants. SRGMP has done this before for the 4 mentors that was have on the program and also the legends like R.D.Burman and S.D.Burman. And having a round on Rehman is great because we get to hear all his great compositions. IMO, he is arguably the best music director of recent times and can be the only one to be compared with the older legends.

Again, may be Roja was one of the first compositions of Rehman - it still remains one of his best and 'Yeh haseen wadiyan' particularly stands out in terms of melody. I think its a great song and has been rendered wonderfully by Raktima. Perhaps only Nihira could have delivered it with such grace.
