There was this one time when he sang very well and then HR mentioned that he was suprised that gala kharaab tha phir bhi Vineet sang well. To which AS and JL said "aisa ho hi nahi sakta" If he can sing like this when he has a bad throat then he must be the best singer of all. To which HR got mad and said "ki Vineet is the best! Ab tou kisi bhi haal mein main isse winner banaaonga"
Since then the whole nautanki has started with HR constantly sticking up for Vineet. I am a Hemu/Nihira/Himani fan...so personally i have no involvement in the Debo/Vinit debacle. These are just my thoughts and feel free to give your inputs!
even though I am a hardcore debu fan, i've to agree with u there. before the agnipariksha, HR was no the agressor. it was JL and AS. everytime Vinit performed, they spared no effort in throwing a couple of sarcastic remarks at him or HR (ID's contestants weren't spared in this respect either).
The problem now is that even though HR's support is justifiable, his methods are reduced to a comedy (espeically some of the statements he makes). before agnipariksha, i supported vinit in every round (partially due to HR being always at he receiving end) and enjoyed his singing.
but HR's blatant partiality towards Vinit, not over other gharana's contestants but over his own gharana's contestants (like Ujjaini and Paresh), was hard to digest for too long.
my opinion (take it or leave it) is that without HR's hyping, Vinit might have enjoyed an even stronger fan base (just by the mere fact that AS and JL were always at his throat). unfortunately, HR's tactics somewhat served to do the opposite.
