I feel that Suresh Wadekar is like one of those teachers whom students never approach as they don't get warmth from him. He might be a great guru with so much knowledge about technicalities but he just cannot connect with little kids. He seems to get offended hearing some of the new songs and while correcting kids his approach is a bit insensitive. He need not sugar-coat his comments but sure can polish them.
I prefer him as a judge for srgmp challenge with adults. Little kids need warmer people like Sonu and Alka.
