Regionalism

Hema is from South india...Himani sounds too Punjabi...therefore they cannot possbily win...

This is all nonsense. Who cares where they are from? They are damn good singers. There is room in the industry for all kinds of voices. Bollywood needs the Nihiras and Vinits but it also needs the Himanis and Hemas. How many films are produced in Bollywood yearly? How many hundreds of thousands of songs are there? Nihira and Vinit can't sing them all, right? So no matter who wins the contest, they all have the talent to go far in the industry. I wish them all well. Regionalism and where the singers are from should not be a factor in who wins or who is popular. Udit Naryan is originally from Nepal. Kishor da was Bengali. Kavita Krishnamurthy is from South India. But has that made any difference to their music and success? Absolutely not. Region has nothing to do with it.
