So, it IS an Indian show after all. Just masking it to look like an international show; but we know it isn't an international show. If it were, why not let singers sing their own national songs on the independence day show? Either do not have international contestants or open your minds. Once allowed, if you are that narrow minded, then do not have national songs, if you still do, let them sing whatever they want.
And, by the way, is it a singing contest or Indian Song Singing Contest? Can they sing any songs other than Indian Songs? Why not Pakistani songs? After all this is a singing contest.
Oh one more thing, those judges all together have over 100 years of industry experience, if they have not heard a song that Mussarat is singing, they are admitting to their lack of knowledge and hence should retire. Or, if you have the heart, just admit your lack of knowledge and judge him on the basis of the quality of his singing. Why can't you judge if you haven't heard the song before? We all do, right? When we first hear a nice new song, we do say "oh, what a nice song and brilliantly sung". They don't have the brains or IQ to judge that?
ALL THE INDIANS ARE REQUESTED TO PROVE THAT THEY HAVE A BIG HEART BY VOTING FOR PAKISTANI SINGERS. AT LEAST 2 OF THEM DESERVE IT ANYWAY. IF MAULI IS IN AND MUSSARAT IS OUT, WHAT DOES THAT TELL US ABOUT THE SHOW, THE JUSGES, THE NETWORK AND THE VOTERS.
These are my 2 cents !!!
Have fun guys.
