You mean you "get" what you choose..? 😃 "Deserving" is a whole new chapter..!! .. and none of these contestant "deserve" partiality and biasness..! All should be rated for there individuality not as a group..!!..😉

Himesh and Vishal both are correct in their own way. Himesh is keeping in mind the winning factor here so saying thus. but this being a singing contest a contestant can be asked to show his/her capability in every field. so that way Vishal is right too. Yes why he is not saying the same to raja is definitely a question he should be now asked to reply.

Versatile singers always go way ahead than one genre singers. first of all one genre singers hav limited scope than the other. Secondly the same genre singing can keep the market demand for sometime... not too long. after sometime listeners are bound to reject it as it would become monotonous. But that would not be same with a versatile singer.

Because the quality of these items will differ.. "All in one" items never function properly.. always giving problems.. 😃..😆

All in one items when materialistic, may not function properly true. but this is music. where it is such "All in one" items that work the best. Best examples being Lata, Asha, Rafi, Kishore. 😊

RAJA did not show that he is versatile, then why Vishal picks other contestents? I think versatality is a plus point but a lot of great singers did not try to go out of their strengths.

I ask him to imagine the following:
Jagjit Singh singing: Eena Meena deeka!
KL Sehgal: Chahe koi mujhe jungli kahe!
Himesh R: mein hoon jhoomroo!
Mehdi Hasan: Jahan teri ye nazar hai
Usha Uthup: Jadu hai nasha hai
etc etc

For the first time, I agree with Himesh. Althoug I love VS, I still believe that Himesh was right today.

I don't know y ppl compare things together. Past is history. It's gone and it'll never come back. According to science, everything is constant and the sooner we accept the changes, the better it is

I agree, that in older times, singers use to be all-rounders, but in today's world, barely anyone is all-rounder, and to survive today, u need to be extra-ordinary in one thing (the thing which others can't easily do) Musarrat is extra ordinary in one genre and if he can do well by sticking to it, then I don't see any problem with that. Aneek, on the other hand, look a copy of Sonu Nigam or more of a Vinit to me. I don't like him that much coz I don't find anything special or extra ordinary in him.

As far as versitality is concerned, most of the contestants aren't versatile either, e.g. take Raja, Joy, Mauli (but these contestants also have something different to offer)

I am serously fed up off Vishal's versality lectures...i used to support him in the beginning but now it is getting too much, let them sing watever they want to sing..after all they have to win public votes and public doesn't want their good attempt to sing different types of songs..public want execellent singing so they can vote for them.

First time i actually agree with Himesh that first become the best in your own genre and make your identity, then try different things!!

wat do u guys think about this..plus i honestly think Raja doesn't have verstility either , he always sings those Qwali type songs which suit his voice the best..but other judges don't say any thing!! Raja has not sing any soft songs, not that i remember!! Then why Vishal is not saying anything to him...He needs to look at his own gharana before pointing fingers😡😡

i m defnatialy agree with u i don't like the way vishal react he just do that when is musrat and you r right abt raja he always sing in same verstility and i don't like that either abt vishal i don't knw whts his prob😡

Well, Vishal and all other Gurus are very less concerned of what people think of these singers because they want these singers to be able to sing play back songs with perfection. Everybody is talking about public support, show me where all of the other past singers of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa are? Those singers were also supported by the public but I don't seem to see them anywhere in the industry. Versatility makes an identity of a good singer. Take a look at Sonu Nigam, he is a versatile singer and even today almost every of his song is a big hit. What about Himesh Reshamiya, he doesn't have versatility and now his songs are bothering because of the SAME TYPE that he sings always. I agree, he is great Music Director but a bothering singer for me. I like him in the start because his way was different but now that same type of music and that same type of singing has become bothering to me. Versatility is important because it keeps a singer's identity alive and it keeps a same number of singer's fans throughout even in the bad times of the singer's carrier. That's the reason why they both are particularly focusing on the versatility of a singer. Where as the support is concerned, I see Buppy Lehri as more supporting to his gharana kids then of others and even he gives 7 points where the singer sings songs that deserve a solid 10. He gives much less points to other gharana kids and that's just one thing that I noticed! Also, we are supporting these kids now but in future Sa Re Ga Ma Pa contests in coming years, we will support the singers of that time so yeah, if a singers versatility is not mentained, he is a flop, if not right away then with few years in future of his music's carrier!

then mauli should be on her way to houston by now right?


and lets remember aneek is a champion and mussarat can still level
him.


ANEEKCANNOT SINGANY TYPE OF SONG!i would love to hear aneek
sing a classical urdu song or even a Nusrat song. he cant do that.

QUOTE]

Without any disrepect to the great NFAK, I am confident that Aneek would
kick A** on any classical song as he has demonstrated a good grasp of a
classical base and I am guessing he has some classical training. I think
he really has far better voice control than Mussarat. i think Mussarat has
one thing going for him which is his voice quality/sound in high notes - -
evocative of RFAK.

I support Vishal's comments because everyone from Lata to Sunidhi is
versatile and that is because of a core classical base. It's ok to prefer
different singers in different types of songs but not ok for a singer to
limit themself.

As for Raja -- I don't think he is a one genre wonder at all. He was
awesome with Subah Subah a completely different song from the other
songs.

Also Amanat, Poonam, Sumedha and even Joy has shown versatility so I
don't think that Mussarat should get a pass!

There is no right or wrong answer to this vital question. I for myself believe in showcasing my strong points.

I do not think Aneek can sing Sanware song as good as Mussarat.
