My Personal Comments:
Positive points: Good to have given each mentor a region so you dont get problem in later stages..
Negative Points: Host is fine, but voice is not impressive, missing Shaan too much.. The quality of singers this time has deteriorated.. Hope these singers improve themselves in time to come, or else the quality of srgmp will be totally lost.. Singers have not impressed me and if hv to choose one from each gharana then it would be for Gaurav of Yalgaar, Saaberi of hit squad, Nirupma Dey of Rock gharana and Koyna, Harpreet of Josh gharana
