I love music and do not care much about competition in music. Everyone who sings good and "dil se" is a winner for me. I honestly do not care who is going to be the eventual winner of this competition but for me on a given day everyone has performed better than other and every one had a day or will have one! I totally agree that all these singers are very talented and are serious about making their career in show business. Considering that I thought that let us think for a while what could be the likely future course of action of these singers once the competition is over in next few months.
Twinkle - Will definitely try her luck in FG and Indian Idol. She will become a good performer and eventually she will release her personal album and may become a hit amongst youngsters, she has all in her required for that segment of music/show business.
Rajeev - We will hear him occasionally like Sukhwinder, with couple of tough songs with very high pitch and likes. He is the best amongst all in high pitch, no one will deny that. Beside that he may become a close friend of Aadesh and become a part of his team (for background music etc.).
Nihira - She will have most offers for love songs and duets and will step in the shoes of Alka. She will be most stable and have a real singing career ahead if she continues to learn.
Sharib- He will sing some Sufiani songs or may be opening lines of some songs with lots of classical and high pitch variations. He may bring his Saabri gharana in fusion with modern music, something like what Trilok Gurtu (son of Shobha Gurtu) did and make a different place for himself.
Himani - I do not see a real serious future ahead for her. She will be a good on-stage or "fill-in" singer may be. She lacks any "original" talent.
Ditto for Vineet, Hemachandra, Debojit, Swananda and Ujjaini. Well they all are good singers, please do not get me wrong but I am talking about a serious future ahead for them. If you notice they all are very good singers but do not have what we call in marketing, a USP (unique selling proposition). They lack any special talent like Rajeev or Twinkle, which make you stand out from the lot. Agreed, they all are very good and extremely talented but unless they are gifted with something different or they develop something "original" in their singing or personality, I do not see market taking a note of them seriously. Unfortunately so far all these singers have tried to imitate the singers only and have not shown a class of their own.
Forgive me if I have hurt anyone's feelings because it is a competition and every one wants his/her singer to go on and win the competition. But please look beyond that, they will be no different from II or FG winners or even old time winners of SRGMP. We all liked their(other winners) performance but what they are today?
Please share your thoughts without emotions (think about it not from current competition's view point only but beyond, please).
