It is quite interesting, as for so many days people are telling East zone is most biased but under this hue and cry facts have been suppressed. In the last elimination round.
North Zone(Vinit Zone)
Debo+Vinit = 7.58 lakhs
Total & amp; nbsp; = 25.66
Percent = 29.54%
-----------------------------
East Zone(Debo Zone)
Hema+Vinit = 7.07 lakhs
Total & amp; nbsp; = 41.53
Percent   ; ; = 17.02%
---------------------------------
South Zone(Hema Zone)
Debo+Vinit = 3.19 lakhs
Total & amp; nbsp; = 20.28
Percent = 15.73%
------------------------------------
See people from which zone are most biased and have most reagional feeling. AS is really misleading whole India, he knows that people of India think from Heart not from mind.
these guys are not even good copycats! they've picked up a few concepts from the west, such as American Idol and have tried to cash in on those concepts. but in the process, they've not even copied well. do you see the hosts on American Idol declare how many votes came in from Wisconsin and how many from New Jersey? its the total population that voted that counts.
also, as has been pointed out umpteen times before, i know as a punjabi that we have punjabis all over india. a punjabi from mumbai voting for a punjabi- does that make it a "neutral" vote?
most folks never understand that u can pick up any statistic and present any case around it. for example, u can take a piece of economic statistic n create any spin around it. Which is why sometimes the market goes up on seemingly bad news n goes down on apparently ood news. There are so many ways of slicing n dicing, from looking at percentage/ absolute increases/ decreases, to other demographic factors (religion, educational background, economic status etc.). Ultimately, it's possible to make almost any case you want to.
but somehow, culturally, or perhaps because we think we are so good at math, we are tuned into thinking there is only one right answer. fact is most things in life, including music, is not about the right side of the brain. there r no clear answers. statistics also falls in that category. its an art form to an extent, and folks like shaan n others who dont really understand it, shld desist from showing their total ignorance n making a total fool of themselves.
they learn a few things and they think they have found nirvana. they shld know that they r too stupid to be original, n the best they can do is to just copy something in its entirety, not try to muck it up by introducing uninformed elements of their own creation. They r simply incapable of original thinking. You cannot even begin to be original if you think there is only one right answer. Even the entire concept of saregama can be found to have been "lifted" from the shows here from the 60s, 70s and 80s. Nothing wrong with it, as long as you understand what your limitations are in terms of being original...
i certainly dont expect folks like AS or Gajji to have the slightest clue as to some of these things. so maybe the correct course is to write them off as total buffoons.
