Well said Deba 👏 I agree! 👍🏼

So are we ready to listen to dadras and thumris from someone like Sugandha, old lataji songs from Dipanwita, punjabi folk or punjabi sufiyani from Hurnoor in every episode? Of course there is a problem with Mugdha, there are not many opera based songs in hindi movies, else she has switch to other Europian languages.

I do not think Ranjeet's ghazals are part of any movies, whereas all the others are someway of other are singing movie songs.

He is singing what he has trained at and probably he sings them everyday anyway, there is not much stylistic variation is his performance. Holding the harmonium keys all the time and always singing his natural scale, he will never go off sur.

I understand Karma Sherpa had tried a song with sargam, and he is out. Even he could have stuck to his comfortable genre and remain there.

I strongly doubt that if he will be able to sing a bollywood song still get wah ,wah..

I still remember what Acharya Vishal said when he selected him, "I have a fear, are going to sing only this in the future episodes.." He replied " No, i will work hard ".

Now time has come to show the result of your hard work.

Versatility is important in a singing competition, especially for a show like SRGMP. The ultimate goal of this competition is to give Bollywood a good playback singer. If you look at successful playback singers like Udit Narayan, Sonu Nigam, Shaan, Shreya Ghoshal, Sunidhi Chauhan and even KK - they are all quite versatile singers. Do they have one genre that they absolutely excel in? Yes, they do. But that also does not mean that they lack the ability to sing in other genres.

At this stage in the competition, when the singers are just discovering their true potential, it is not right for them to limit themselves to their comfort zone and present that to us week after week. It doesn't show their real ability or the scope of their talent if they sing in the same genre from auditions up to elimination.

Coming to Ranjeet's case, we all realize he is a good ghazal singer. If he continues to work hard, he will excel in that genre one day. But "one day" is the key term there. In order to get to that one day, he has to step out of his comfort zone and show us his true potential. Ranjeet has to attempt a Bollywood number ... if he does not attempt it we will all continue to assume he cannot sing mainstream Bollywood songs. And that may or may not be true.

When you're a participant in a reality show, you haven't earned the right to pick and choose which genre or style of song you would like to sing. You have to showcase your versatility and show all aspects of your singing. It is evident that flaws will come out when one steps outside the four walls of their little box, but it is how those flaws are improved as the weeks go by that gives one winner-like qualities.

I never said he's bad, he's pretty good, but to prove yourself as a true singer.

Woh banda toh aise hi bol raha tha, just to make you happy, iss bhai ki baat mano, bahut door jaoge😆

Anyways, I know you just like his eyes, do you think I don't stalk people and their statuses?😉

Shut up bhai
I liked his voice before his eyes! Gosh!

I think this problem is arising not just for Ranjeet, but for Sniti, Harnoor as well.. they need to challenge themselves, plus we as audience need something new from them.. 🤔
There is no point in just singing what you are good at all the time.. Esp one needs to prove that they can sing the 'typical' or 'normal' Bollywood tracks..
Simple songs become a tough task esp when you have to retain the feel in them, so I think these guys definitely need to raise the bar, its high time now..

At least Sniti is singing songs from Bollywood though they are classical . They are not holding the harmonium keys unlike Ranjeet.

Lol I liked the above post by mistake 😆
