I would choose maybe Amanat - Shekar - TB

Just now read the article from Barnalidi on Vishal shekar. Hats off to them, both are realy very fair and good people. SRGMP is lucky to have found such mentors.

Also as per Shekar, if he were to chose the winner, he would chose Amanat coz he is the one with most talent and ready for playbacking singing. I also remember Shekar mentioning more than a couple of times that Amanat was the most versatile and could excel in all genres. This coming from an opposition mentor is a real treat for all Amanat fans like me.

Thank you Shekar for the acknowledgement and for being a wonderful person. We would be ever greatful to you if you can manage to bring the old format back in SRGMP, however impossible it seems, since it will mean a lot of less revenue for zee.

Joy i edited your post to add the link to the article...hope u dnt mind. 😳

But maybe this time its not a dream anymore Joy....as per shekhar zee has shown positive response on the old farmat issue. more because even sonu is now presuring them for the same. But best part is that there's more chance of watching these two mentors again on the judges seat in the next series. 😊

No problem at all barnalidi for editing the post.

I so hope that public voting is done away with for all future series.

"Personally I feel SRGMP needs to go back to its old format where eminent music personalities as judges make the decisions. And we have decided that if we do SRGMP C-2008, we'll make sure to go back to the old format. We already informed the channel house about it, and they are also now thinking on this issue. The credibility of this show, when the SRGMP started was that only really good singers come out from this show. People actually die to watch SRGMP not for glamour, drama or us but for pure music. That is our Indian crowd and I really appreciate them for this."

It's encouraging to hear that V-S have taken this stance.

I doubt Zee will drop public voting altogether, but I hope at the very least Zee and V-S can arrive at a better compromise between old format and new.

Thanks to VS atleast public should know who deserved for play back singing.

Even I have my doubts that Zee will drop public voting altogether, since SRGMP became more famous after public voting was introduced and also voting means a lot of additional revenue for zee, by my heart longs for the old format and I cannot stop hoping that it will be as before some day.😍

Personally I am okay with Aneek win and would have been ok with Raja win too, coz all 3 were good. At the same time it feels great to have acknowledgement from people like pandit jasraj, jagjeet singh and now Shekar that Amanat is slightly better than the other two.

I think I remember these quotes' but they all said good things about all nine contestants. I was really moved by Mussrrat's capability and we should not forget him as well.

This artical is a good reference for all of us and I would love if the three finalist could be intrviewd now and listen to them once again.

Personally I think all 3 have great talent but still need loads of training and practice (I never said that about Nihira or Hema though).
Out of the 3 Amanat has the most training and least limitations, though he has a lot of learning to do as well.
