I have been watching this program from the very begining. I must say that I love the program because it has too many controversies, some harsh comments from judges and some real good talents.
However I am very much sure that these reality programs are driven by a strategy. A strategy to sell their product. I think Sony has ’deviously’ made it little controversial to get more and more audiences’s attention.
Once choosing 10 finalist, Somehow my favourite (for obvious reason :-)) priyanka venkatesawara got dissappeared. It seems her conservative family had too much to digest the duo act of her with Amit Tondan (Kuch Kuch Hota hai song in theatre round).
Ironically Amit tandon came back as the replacement of her.
In the very first episode, I thought ravinder ravi would get eliminated. This notion got further strengthed ’coz of his lack of singing abilility, poor presentation and hardly any X factor. But still he is going very stronlgy as its narrowing down to final five.
I do admit that sometimes Indian audiences get very emotionally attached to an under privileged person but they cant go to this extent to pamper somebody at the expense of real talent.
How come one justify that Ravinder Ravi is still in the hunt and not even looking like to get eliminated by not coming in ’Bottom 3’.
Anyway I am damn sure that this has been another ’set up’ to get more interest so that audience vote it more and more and subsequently makers can woo sponsors by showing this indirect TRP.
Yup it looks to be another TRP gimmick to me.
Anyway who would be getting axed at the expense of Ravindar Ravi that has to be seen.
I urge everybody not to vote for anybody as it doesn’t matter who gets vote, it depends how long Sony and the maker will take the advantage of viewer emotional attachments.
Finally, I like the show but for some dubious verdict and will give the comments till the next guy eliminated.
cheers
