Is mentor's special a good idea? - Page 2

I really dont know.May be they should have a mix and match of the Mentors songs.Can you imagine if there is a HR special and the participants sing it.I am sure none would be able to catch and give the "special genre" effects 100% right and that would mean our dear Himmy bhaiyya singing out 8 songs to show the effects.😕

Vishal Shekhar- do they have those many songs? I am quite ignorant about them except I like dus bahane and sunona.would they have more songs like sun zarra or sad ones , i,e. in other categories except fast beat types?

Bappida is the only one who has a wide range and categories.

ID's songs are absolutely divine, but as we found out , not the easiest ones to perform on stage

Oh man, 8 HR songs sung by other singers and than repeated by HR😆..Where is the nearest railway line😕😆..Thanks for your post, Adi

I dont think there should be a mentor special, I dont even think there should be a MD special, I think the rounds should be theme/genre specific

I dont think there are enough variety composition from ID and maybe even VS

I also feel that making mentor or MD special make the field very constricted..Theme/genre specific will increase the choices and make the program more entertaining.. Thanks Sareg!

Nice topic Amit 👏 .. hey, you should also join us in DM. 😳

Okay, I agree with sareg about not having MD special!

In fact, I honestly think that towards the latter stages, all participants should sing the same song..😛 but then ofcourse, no matter how much we claim we listen only for sur and voice, somewhere we all seek entertainment whether we accept or not.

Also, one has to judge the contestants for their variety and it also gives a chance to identify their niche.. Subjecting them to different MDs projects their quality of voice in terms of variety and sensibility :) beedee jalalile vs and Hum the jinke sahaare... Both are demanding songs and very different :)

Since MDs like ID , VS are rlatively new and /or have less variety, perhaps they can club all mentors together and contestants can picks songs from all 4 OR other 3, except their own mentor.. or something like that 😊 - just my opinion! no offense be taken.

Thanks QT..I am not a big debator..idhar hi thodha behas karke shaunk poora kar lete hain😆 I am not too sure about this topic..so started this thread😃

Well, the contestants can be tested in 100 different ways as you mentioned few of them..but as you said the end result should be an entertaining program..I am sure many people may be enjoying the mentor's special which I may find boring..Probably channels must have done some research how well these(mentor's special) programs will be taken..Thanks for your input ..

Arre then Vishal will stand up and start complaining about why all the contestants are singing songs of the same genre 😉

Bring back the old format with good old Sonu back as host, no dramas, no topis, no rotis.
Contestants sing songs requested by the judge (from a pool of songs that they have prepared).

well actually its not dat bad an idea u know all the 4 mentors r frm 4 different geners n by having dis special the participants can be tested as in if they can sing in all geners or not....or they will cum to know which gener is der forte ...n stuff like dat

n i dun think VS dun have variety ......they've gvn soulful songs like aazmale aazmale frm taxi no. 9211.....n dat song tu jahan frm salaam namaste n suno na and tu ashiqui hai from jhankaar beats

Thanks anisha for sharing your views..

Yes I agree too. The MDs are there as mentors. They are coaching their contestents and providing their input. It is good to see the MDs range too and understanding of other genre of music. Contestents should be versatile in singing all genre of songs.......not just particular kind of songs by their own mentors. The mentors can also learn from each other's comments. Mentor's round is helpful in my view.😛

Thanks Minali, agreed, it is good to test verstality.. in the end people should have some entertainment also(whatever pool of songs show decides to choose from)..

First of all.... the historical greats are no more in the music industry and this show is to bring the playback singers for current era and not the historical era.... Hence i think its fair enough to test them with current era music....

Also I dont think its wise to stuck in the oldies.... the mind becomes too saturated with that....

well i think,they shud start the old judges choice round type mentors-choice round instead of this mentor's special.......n yes theme round will also be good........these mentors r new n doesnt have variety.........likewise they shud have lyricist's round,singer's round in which they can sing from the same lyricist,singers....etc instead of this mentors special.......expecting this type of rounds in ASVOI 😳 😛

Thanks for your views..I think they used to have these rounds in the past in C 2005..
