January 09 , 2009
The show starts with Deepika Padukone making a guest appearance ( obviously to promote Chandini chowk to China )
In today’s gala , the contestants have to sing a song of one of their favourite singers whom they consider their idol.
Bhavya : Sings Asha Bonsle’s “dhaiya” from movie Karwan. Sings fluently and impressively and collects all the accolades from the judges.
Prasenjit : Sings “Mein jahaan rahoon ” of Rahet Fateh Ali Khan from Namastey London. Does a good job.
Kapil : Sings Kunal Kanjawala’s “Tumse yun milenge” and sang pretty well.
Mohit : croons Kishore kumar’s “ Woh hansini “ . Was good .
Seems like all the contestants are in full swing this week..
Torsha : “bahon mein chale ao ” , the lata’s evergreen song is what she chose. Was good.
Bhanu : Sings ” kal ho na ho ” . Well , it was bad. It was a weak performance of the day.
Rajdeep : “Sandese aata hai ” and steals the heart as usual. Man , here is a boy who sings real good but always ends up dangerously close to being voted out .
Sourabhee : “Pyar hua chupke se ” Gets a red from Javed Akthar and Anu malik. I found the performance good but bit strained in the singing.
Remo : tries Khailash Kher’s “Allah ka Bande ” . To be frank , I don’t like this kid in gala rounds when better singers are voted out. Was average performance.
My pick of the day : Rajdeep , Prasenjit , Bhavya
