Nihira has blessings of Sarswati - Page 5

Hi N. Sinha and Dwarkanath,

This was the best thread initiated and I enjoyed every bit of it. Moderators should promote these kind of discussions, which are so informative. Guys, you have good knowledge as well as good ears. Congrats and write more often.

My personal favorite is Nihira from the time she sang Dil Ki Girah on Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. But that does not mean others are not good. I do not care what they look and dance or smile or they have ego. Since when I drive 1 hour to my work, I listen to singers and words and emotions.

Once again good job both of you, it was good relief from previous flaming discussion. Keep it up..

Hello
Thanks
I shall try my best....

Mr.Sinha very informative forum.
Sad your one of good forum closed by jealous people.
i think nihira has pure heart.
being simple and hard working she rocks sur world.
She is best singer deserve to win

I too think that Nihira has phenomenal voice and talent. But at the same time she must be working very hard, without which such consistency is impossible.

Offcourse one cant say about her nature by watching a TV show for few minutes.............. this is ridiculous.

But in any case i dont think her body language suggests her to be arrogant or rude.
On the contrary she looks most mature and simple amongst all the paticipants.

I wud surely vote for her!!!!

N Sinha,

Fabulous posts and insights!!! 👏

I just hope Nihira's gets the blessings of Laxmi as well.

Irrespective of the winner of the show by public voting...if OP Nayyarji or shivji-hariji would be judging the show, nihira would be the default winner. With due respect to daler Menhdi, he showed little immaturity while saying that about nihira.
I was shocked to hear that..first time in the history of saregama any judge had said that to a contestnt..It reminded me of farah khan in a rival reality show, she said in her books singing while eyes closed is a minus...boy, she is ignorant. Sonu nigam even though being the best singer currently chose not to refute her..it made me sad.
I miss the old format of saregama, when people would be tested thoroughly on the basis of singing talent only. In this format,songs should be catchier than difficult. I would prefer a singer singing laga chunari mein daag or phulgendva na maro than crooning ashiq banaya apne..and getting accolades like anything. ABA song is sooooooooooo easy to sing, even HR can sing it.
In my opinion, public voting is a celebration of mediocrity.

VERY well said!!! I completely agree.

MR SINHA ,HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THE OVERWHEMING NO OF DOWNLOADS OF HIMANION COOLTOAD!! NO ONE COMES EVEN CLOSE.

SHE HAS MORE THAN 2OR3 TIMES OTHERS.I TOO FIND MYSELF DRAWN TO-ROCKME BABY,UPAR KHUDA,JIYA DHAADAK,,even though for months i have been supporting nihira!!

a conteporary voice? style??choice of songs.......i dont know!

Well, i feel really sad when people comment on nature from miles away. Do you guarantee your own derivation? Or is it that there is nothing else that can be pointed out thats why you are building up a story. Please stop this non sense, be please be just to yourself- You will be automatically just to Nihira. She is shy, is not keen on getting involved in melodramas or any other issues other than music. And this shows through her consistence and performance(for me performance of a singer is hos singing ONLY). Else kindly request to change the name of the show to TAKDHINANDHIN saragamapa. What say buddy?

Those who have been seeing Nihira since some time now( in Aao Jhume Gaaein) would know that not losing sur is not new to her. When I read comments like "she looks expressionless, she is arrogant etc' I feel totally puzzled. What are we looking for...??
Way back in 1995 when Salilda died, Lataji sang a song remembering him from film Maya(1961) on doordarshan: tasveer teri dil me', this song has extremes of range, from the landing note to one octave up & down there is hardly any note which has not been used .... she looked like a stone while concentrating...there is no otherway these songs can be sung..!
Singers singing with eyes closed & fully focussed about singing are rarity today..I note there are many members who are music students..
I'm sure they will confirm that it takes years of riyaaz & blessings of Ma Sarswati(Goddess of music) so that one doesn't miss sur.
Ustad. Bade Ghulam Ali Khan once said of Lata Mangeshkar, "Kambakht, galti se bhi sur kharab nahi karti", same holds true for Nihira.
I think inability to control excitement & losing focus is most common reason(for trained voice) for going besura... hormonal response under stress/excitement can completely unsettle vocal cords.
Ujjaini is best example of this...
This is a singing contest & sur should be first consideration nothing else..
While other singers have suffered from common cold (which eliminated Keka), fever & fainting episodes, Nihira's sureela safar continues unabated...this is purely because of her focus & discipline
Go Miles Nihira...

Can U Explain Once more.......😆
