correction ID praised contestants from other gharana's only when he wanted to or when he was in the mood of doing so. he did not always confront HR n AS when he thought they were unfair to debo.... example the qawali episode. y was he not upfront, why did he not ask HR and AS to justify the marks if he really deemed it unfair. why did he cunningly appeal for sypathy by staging a walk out. and finally yessss he has been unfair to HEMA....a man of integrity (thought he was😆) would not use chandu to get back at AS. while chandu was still in the game he always praised vinit, he even gave him his invaluably precious 50 bucks to vinit and the minute hema leaves, he sudenlly deems the same vinit's voice undeserving and expreses his dismay on hema's exit (ya right! mann main tho ladoo phoot rahe honge😛)
i'm not saying that AS and HR were any better but i held a high opinion of ID(may a bit tooo high) and it was extremely disappointing to see his true colours. i still remember the dignity he carried himself with when i first saw him as a judge on this very show a couple of months before the challenge and he has completely tarnished that image. ID is no God. just cuz he praised some students from other gharanas and reprimanded his student at some instances does not make him "fair" (it was all part of the act to creat the impression of being fair else he wouln't blow his own trumpet). just cuz AS and HR always praised nhira does that make them fair? does himesh uncontrollabily praising chandu in his last episode suddenly make him fair?
in spite of all his cheap tactics, i still maintain that he was the best out of the three. nevertheless, cleverest among the fools is not a scholar right😛
👏👏 That's what I was trying to say a few weeks back. You are much more eloquent and convincing than I am😳
