OK, my first impressions on some of the contestants:
Meenal seemed really laidback yet confident, nice, always smiling in her first audition. There was nothing artificial or 'airy' about her, she came across as very sincere. She came across as a more serious person in the galas...maybe cause more was at stake or maybe cause she was in the bottom 3 week after week.
Amey seemed like a very serious, simple person in the his first audition. Came across as an enigma and introvert at times too. But as the galas progressed, he came across as more of an extrovert, a friendly guy and showed more personality which did wonders to increase his fan following.
Karu came across as naive, innocent and simple in the initial episodes. Reminded me of a younger version of Abhishek Bachchan too.
After his Layi Vi Na Gayi performance, I knew he would go far in the competition.
Neha seemed like a fun-loving person, hardly serious yet she showed an emotional side during the theater round. Unconventional too, different from the other contestants. Seemed kind of kiddish at times, someone who'd talk w/o thinking first. I thought she would go far cause of her 'rock-star' image.
Monali came across as a quiet and simple person in her first audition. But she isn't! She's one of loudest (in a good way!), most social contestants of II2 ie. the person who befriends everyone. I was impressed with her O Mera Sona Re piano perf and thought she had a good chance to make it to the top 5 or top 3. Sadly, it didn't happen.
Antara seemed like a very naive, sweet and quiet girl in the auditions/theaters. Naive because of the X factor question she asked Farah in the theaters. Confident yet emotional. But as the galas progressed, she came across as more of an extrovert.
Panna- Saif Ali Khan! Seemed like a flirt early on, not a very serious person, didn't seem that mature. Came across as a good performer, but OK singer. Screamed X factor.
