Aneek replaced Mussarat as HR's fav? - Page 4

I'm getting irritated by the way HR is fawning over Aneek. If you want to applaud and appreciate someone, do it like Vishal and Shekhar do - they stand up, they applaud, they salute - sometimes they even go and give the contestant a hug. But going ga-ga over a contestant, forcing him to express his love to a lady, start squealing "Oh my lord!" when the lady responds positively, and begin creating a fuss about heartbreaks - in an attempt to create sympathy - when she politely declines. All this is highly irritating.

There was a time, in C2005, when I was among those who quite disliked HR. I am starting to be reminded of the reasons why. History is beginning to repeat itself.

When Himesh was doing the same thing with Musarrat,you never said anything.Now when he is going ga ga over Aneek its troubling you!Why double standard shady?😕

I don't think so. What Himesh was saying is that Musarrat can't compete in the typical play back genre with SOnu, SHaan and K.K. because he is weak in tha department. What he needs to show is his strengths and where he can surpass others. However, Aneek can definitely compete in the typical Playback genre because he has a beautiful voice with superlative performances. One must focus on their strengths and not display there weaknesses. He knows Musarrat surpasses others when it comes to a particular genre and he has proved that with his last performance.

I think Himesh is one person who supports his contestants full heartedly, but if they are not singing well he cant go crazy and fight the mentors all the time otherwise people will complain about that. It's evident that VS love Aneek and that makes Himesh more confident and excited about Aneek.

Any which way you look at it, I feel it is ok for HR to get excited about his own student if they are singing well. I think this is natural.

Thats true....he always told that if any singer is not as strong like the existing singers then he/she has to show one strong point so that they can get work or roti....thats why he told this to mussarat and also to mauli(though not directly) but when it comes to aneek he is sure that aneek can compete with the existing singers cause its his strong point....so thats why he is ok with his song choice and i do believe whatever songs aneek sang he did a extraordinary job...kudos to him

I'm not surprised. Aneek is the better of the two singers. But all this hype will definitely not help in the long run. If anything, its going to irritate people, just like during C2005.

I wonder if it will be ID vs HR again in the finals again. Amanat vs Aneek?

Himesh didn't go overboard with Mussarat, and you know that very well yourself. Yes, he defended Mussarat when people were criticizing him for singing in the same genre, just like he defended Mauli the other day. And just like ID defends Amanat when Vishal says he sings in the same genre.

It's all right to defend your student. It's also all right to get excited about their performances, applaud them, give them standing ovations, etc. I've mentioned all that earlier. I have no problem with the way Vishal Shekhar get excited about Aneek. But Himesh clearly goes overboard, as we saw last week. I have a feeling it's going to get worse.

I also had the same problem when Himesh went overboard with Vinit. The double standards are in the way that the same people who criticized Himesh getting excited about Vinit, have no problem with Himesh getting excited about Aneek, maybe because of where Aneek hails from.

I notice a comment about selection based on Indians and Pakistanis. But in music there is no distinction, it is either one are good or not. It is our own mental attitude that makes the difference. In the recent episode Mussarat was very highly rated and everyone enjoyed his performance. By freeing the mind of undesirable thoughts one will be able to excel.

He definitely went overboard with Mussarat. I mean the whole roti thing and yelling at Vishal to support him was very strong. He did that as well when VS were criticizing Tushar and Shrestha. He is just an emotional person and will defend anyone who sings well. I understand Mussarat is your favourite and it probably feels like he he is now supporting Aneeek, but that is not true. The truth is besides this week, Mussarat was not doing well. His voice sounded really rough and was going off sur, that's when Himesh calmed down. But, if Mussarat continues to sing well, I think he will go crazy for him a well.

Himesh's nature and emotional style is what gives the show it's own flavour.

The whole roti issue was more in response to the challenge on his own point-of-view that Mussarat should restrict himself to sufi songs. That's the reason he got angry, not because Mussarat was criticized.

Let me refresh your memory. Mussarat sang Main Jahaan Rahoon, and Himesh pointed out that he had done well and sung two different singers at once. Then Asha ji had Mussarat sing a Rafi song, and he sang it quite well, and everyone was praising him, including Asha ji. Vishal and Shekhar said - 'We knew you could sing different genres, and didn't need to restrict yourself to one genre'. That's when Himesh blew his fuse and gave the priceless line about roti, not struggling. Was that anger because Mussarat was criticized? No - where was he criticized. It was because Himesh's point-of-view was being challenged, and he got irritated with it.

Now coming to Aneek. I am actually a bigger fan of Amanat and Raja than Mussarat. But Himesh's hype not only overshadows Mussarat, Amanat, or Raja, but everyone else in the competition. In fact, the first time I felt a sense of real irritation was even before the show was telecasted, when someone posted a preview article - 'Aneek says 'I love you' to Dia'. By then I hadn't even seen Himesh's antics. But I immediately remembered Vinit and C2005. And I was like - oh my God, not again.. can't they come up anything new? The same old technique? And the same old woman? Poor girl is called every year on SRGMP and exploited for TRPs, used as a mere toy doll so the contestant of the moment can express his love for her.

And it's not just Aneek. I'd also posted some time back (in the opinion of the show thread) that maybe Raja's hype was getting a tad bit too much, such as his bachpan ki story about Sunny Deol, and wanting to touch him, going to hug him, etc. So I hope you can see that I'm not biased againt Aneek or anything as such. I'd felt the same way about one of my favorite contestants, Raja.

Frankly, I have no problem with hype that relates to the singing of the contestant. But come on - love, heartbreaks, maa, haven't we all seen this before??

Do not worry, the contestants who get hyped ultimately may not win. People revolts and it will work against the hyped contestants. Last season too the most hyped finalist was runner up!!

Shady , I think in the heat of the moment when someone sings well, we all get excited. I do that and I am not even on the show. A human being is full of various emotions and there is more to a contestant then just there singing. sometimes these things to the foreground in shows.

I believe it was just singing and judgement of singing , the show would be relatively boring. What's fun and exciting is these other moments.

Atleast, I feel so. I think somehow we make tooo much out of every little think HR does. IF Bappida sings, or Vishal sings not much is made out of that. If Id pumps up Poonam's telephone story or Raja's background is brought out along with his deaths in his family. Not much is discussed of that. Or if ID supports Mauli, nobody notices that. When VS jump up for people and hype certain singers nobody cares about that. For example, Mauli's maya maya, the both freaked out on it and started saying she was a star, etc. Total hype. But, everyone criticized HR because he didn't jump up and go crazy like the other guru's and said he was just plain jealous. Now people realize that Mauli is not that good. It's always HImesh that get's the focus in everything he does.

I thought the whole Dia thing was hilarious. I saw Hungama thing and it was obvious Aneek liked Dia and so it became a light moment. The girl kissing Aditya was also funny. I guess people take this show more seriously and want it to be serious entertainment rather than a fun show to sit and enjoy.

At the end of the day this is just a show and the winner should be the one that sings well.

I agree with all your statements shady...😊
