I'm sorry, but I beg to differ from most of you! This group was NEVER appealing to me. I honestly don't know what the judges saw in them to pick them! But I guess they knew what they were doing. But once given the opportunity you should make the best out of it. Which in my honest opinion I don't think this group is doing. I respect everyone who posted here's opinion. You all have a right to express your opinion. I don't expect anyone to agree with me. But I expressed what I felt. When they initially started singing the song "Sawan Ka Mahina" I thought it was perfect. I thought this is going to be one of the best performances on the show! But their rendition just go worse from there (in my opinion). I've heard MANY people sing this song. They didn't copy the original and made it their own. The way this group made the song their simply didn't work for me. Its not entire Nirmitee's group's fault. Sanjay sir also has a hand in it. Now in comparison to all 3 judges I am NO ONE to judge these singers. NO ONE! But if I don't like their singing, I will express my views and JUSTIFY why I didn't like it or why I loved it. This group as a whole just isn't working for me. Sure they do have the X factor because if they didn't they wouldn't have lasted this long. But now coming this far they really need to step up their game because they have some tough tough competitors!!


Interesting justification and a nice post😊

I do not agree with the last line to some extent.

Nirmitee have no competitors except seema jha or the deewana group to some extent.

I cannot imagine amit, kartar uncle, geet, sahiti or the sajda sisters coming even close to them.

All the above mentioned singers weak points have been exposed thread bare😊 in the last week.😊

I'm sorry but I disagree with the topic maker. Nirmitee are very talented. It's very difficult to make a song your own. Most singers to make it there own add a few runs or I guess in India Harkat or w/e but these guys truly remix it and very well too.

Like Chod to anchal, the carribbean, afro-latin stuff the added to it was genius. Or in Saathiya adding the tamil. I think they didn't harmonzie well for sawan ka mahin but iyou could still see what they were doing. Hal kasia hai janab ka, adding a blues effect to it. and spicing up a prayer. I could go on.

I think some people who are sole fans on Indian music might not get it because they are not use to that. Western music before it went all techno you had boys II men heck even backstreet boys that would harmonize. Its very hard to do in Indian songs as sherya pointed out. That is why the judges love nimirtee. They just pep up old song for the new gen but in a respectful way.

Finally Sawana ka mahin is one of my fav songs too and I can put Nirmitees performance on repeat. I loved it.


Oh, i can perfectly understand what you are trying to say😊

I was appalled the first time i heard them.😊

I could not believe what they were trying to do. Then, they grew on me pretty fast, by the 2nd episode in fact and i love their innovative style.

it is not easy what they do, i guess. Dunno much about music😉but, am impressed with whatever they do.

Change and acceptance is what marks our growth and i can accept nirmitee whole heartedly😊

They are brilliant👏

Nirmeeti grp is using harmonizing in their singing. It works and sounds good upto a limit. I don't care when they butcher an old classic be it a good or a bad song.

Did not care for "Sawan ka Mahina" rendition at all.
Female singer is not a very good singer and one of the dude is on suger high. 😆

I completely agree with you Varsha jee. As someone said Choli ke peechey was crappy song and they couldnt do any better. However they do bring something which is different and likeable. Its all about hamronizing. on which they good.

Nirmitee are good singers but I guess they made a wrong song selection here. I think they did not have enought time to really try to rearrange the songs within such a short period.
Maybe they should have done a Rap instead.😆
We cannot take it too seriously as they are only experimenting.

Its not about taking it seriously. But as a music lover & a singer myself it is only humane to express your feelings on a singer (or a group) and that too on a singing reality show!

Actually I did not like their rendition too.
But that is what happens to a lot of good songs when people try to rearrange them.

Look out fr tht...
"JO DIKTHA HAI WAISA KUCH BHI NAHI HAI...Its very Different World their!!"😒
NIRMITEE is 1 diff version..diff grp..diff thnking unlike others.. n yes they do hv Competition...& they r tryng level best to do it cz they r diff frm other..vry genuine..very honest...vry true to their Music & Passion!!!!👏


If they are as good as you think they are, why so many explanations?

Give people a choice to like or dislike.

Everyone cannot like everyone.

The same pressures are there for all the singers. Chill😊

I think we can like them in some and dislike them in others 😆
They do have some magical performances too.
As a group they are very likeable and will have a lot of support.
But they rank below Uncle Kartar ji , just like everyone else.😆
