Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is a staged show... most probably. Take a look at this.. I was voting for Amanat.. and I saw this "Terms and Conditions" thing after giving him my 40th vote... I didn't really notice what it said before. Just take a look at this:

Yeah, just take a look at the points in bold. They can legally do that! They can, without even counting the votes, eliminate a contestant of their choice. They can choose to NOT count your votes, and THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE TO HAVE A REASON! They can do it without reason, and nobody can say anything about it! š”
