Hammer,
It should be a vote for “Who SHOULD be eliminated” as opposed to “Who WILL be eliminated”.
I will vote Mouli for SHOULD and unfortunately Junaid for WILL.
- Senty.
They set the stage for who they want to win and who they want to leave. They set for junaid to leave. All idiots just then follow what judges say and eventually the person leaves. When judges started to say that Aneek reminds them of Sonu. All the idiots follow and started to think that Aneek sounds like Sonu. Have some of your own brains, think, and analyze! Aneek takes the easy route all the time. All the time! I have yet to see him take a challenge. I thought he would be challenged with Qawali song but he picked a NON-QAWALI song. Very sad! Hamesh promotes and all idiots follow. TRUST ME IF HE SOUNDED LIKE SONU THEY WOULDN’Y PAY SONU MILLIONS TO SING A SONG WHERE THEY CAN PAY ANEEK FRACTION OF IT. Get some mind of your won. Plus Hamesh competed with Sonu so he will do anything to put Sonu down. Sonu is good so please don’t insult him like that. Again think!
I’ve been going through the videos of previous episodes on this site, and I can tell you that there are three singers who have been superbly consistent since the beginning, and they are Amanat, Poonam and Aneek.
Everyone else have made mistakes and have not been consistent.
senty – thanks for the comment. I will amend it asap.
People please cast your vote @

We need more votes, genuine votes! to know who WE ALL think SHOULD be eliminated in the coming week!
HaMMeR
i48998- You must have hearing problems. Aneek makes a lot of mistakes and judges hide them. The only difference is that judges point others mistakes and hide Aneek’s. Last episode Aneek made mistakes. Go listen again. Poonam is on and off but I do like her voice. Amanat is the only contestant on the show who has been consistent.
I am Paki and I vote based on each contestant performance every week. I have voted for Poonam, Raja, Juanid, Amanat, musarrat, and Aneek. In all honesty, i have never voted for Mauli and Herpeet because they are not upto the par. So for the people who say that pakistanis don’t vote for indians they are wrong. You don’t know what each person is doing and who they are voting for. So please stop assuming! In reality, the truth is there is a reason why no Pakistani has been a number 1 yet. So should I assume that people in India don’t vote for pakis since 80% of the votes come from India. But this is just the way it is. No paki is gonna win this and we know this already. ZTV nor the people of India will never let that happen because they can’t upset millions of people. So cut the crap accept reality and stop crying about votes. At the an Indian is gonna win! So relax!
i m the biggest fan of the SA REGA MA PA and i want that as you add sad songs gajal etc. as well as if u can add bhajan’s episode so i’ll feel very proud glad so please accpect my this small request

My opinion about 18 aug performance with ranking:
1. Mussarat : He was perfect, could not think a better performance for this song
2. Raja: He is divine and creates an apt atmosphere with his songs.
3. Sumedha : Amazing performance. Whatever was her previous performance she was very good today.
4. Harpreet : Very good. His confidence is reflected in his performance.
5. Amanat: He was OK. Probably there was no technical mistakes in his song, but the enthusiasm and zeal required for the song was totally missing. It seemed he was very conscious of the sur, but he missed the feel.
6. Mouli : She was a surprise package today. There was no high expectation from her, so her OK performance also seemed to be Good.
7. Aneek: He sang the qawwali like a pop song. Didnt feel he was singing qawwali.
8. Poonam: Performance was very boring, was waiting for her to finish. Though she is one of my favourites.
9. Junaid: He is losing confidence. Started off very well, but seemed to be lost later.
Can anyone list the achievments so far by all the singers? I mean who has what contract etc.
I know Amanat, Aneek, Poonam, Junaid, Mouli have already COMPLETED recording for forthcoming movies. Very good for them.
I heard about Raja too. But dont know for sure.
Sumedha has a contract, or offer, but dont know if that is sealed and has she recorded anything yet??
Does Harpreet get any chances so far?
Amanat, Aneek and Junaid have the most contracts I think.
Last Hungama episode showed Musarrat going to the recording studios along with Amanat, Poonam and Junaid, but it didnt cover what he did there…
Anyone can knows and can share that info, it will be much appreciated. I am looking for more than just “Tum mere aanewale “flim” me jjaroor gaoge” promises.
Also, can we have a link in this forum to track these achievements? I am sure that link will prove who is the most wanted singer irrespective of public votes.
- Senty
Eric… I agree with your comments completely.
Ya Junaid is gettting depressed bt it is caused by judges n may be by host(just after declaring that he got Yellow,he wish Mauli for getting highest internatioal votes .it was like make him that how down he was)…..
Bt i think if he get his confidence back he will at top 5
@senty
That would be nice idel..I would open the post for that.
As for as i know, few of the singers got contract and they actually recorded songs( all we got to know through Hungama)…
1. Amanat,Aneek,Sumedha – recorded for film ‘Bal Ganesh’ music director-Shamir Tandon
2. Mauli recorded for Bappida – source ‘bappida’
3. Yesterday’s hungama shows Amaanat,Mussarat, Junaid, Poonam – singing for Shibu-Pintu
Hi, what was the name of the peppy punjabi song that Harpreet sang on the 18th august? I really liked it. hope to get the name of the song.
~cheers, bindoo
hey vijay n ossama
i dunno if my posts have been posted here.. cause some id don’t see at all.. and there are some others in my name which i didn’t post
ossama,,u r absolutely correct in saying that abt the judges.. vishal and shekher luks least partial in their comments..they have been appreciating and encouraging n they even pointed raja on writing lyrics on hand.. guess if mussarat had done the same than the freaky number he sang would not have got screwed up..but i still feel all the judges hv become partial//
but the fact that I hate now is that appreciation has become only cynical n critical when it comes to junaid these daz.. he has been an enomorous singer but his mentor didn’t make eny efforts to support him in rough times..infact they have been all praises abt harpreet..yeah they sud encourage him but not to the extent of downlining a gud guy..
Ismail as a judge i guess is too emotional.. not practical.. unke dil se sabke liye jitne ki dua nikalti hai.. which is very gud.. but he shouldn’t forget its a competition..his judgements are biased most of the time.. i still cannt forget that he gave Joy 9+1 vote cause he is from assam who voted for deojit.. wat crap…
These pple forget that many pple vote on basis of wat comments they make.. they hv already decided raja to be winner.. and basis that there comments and appreciations hv changed over the period of time..same goes for mauli.. they knw she doesn’t hv that potential still even when she sings horribly bad, the comments hv alwaz been soft n not harsh..
This partiality sucks..
well vijay, to put that again, i totally agree with what u said abt mauli..her maiya maiya is not comparable to original version but my comments were only based on the fact that she is an ameture singer and it was a live stage performance unlike a recording..where the 3 singers sang that song…so comparing that it was a good attempt.. but still no doubt in my head that she has alwaz manipulated most of her songs .. and twisted it to the scales which she can sing..to a point that most of them sound so sterotype.. or I may say mauli style.. cause she can’t sing those scale.. eehh.
she just doesn’t match the standards which we have on the show…
I am in US and don’t get starvoice on TV here.. do u have any online link which i can access to watch the show??
@Rohan
That was really tight what you sead about Pakistani’s they are not like that. I am a Pakistani from england and yeh i support all the pakistan people but also Raja & Aneek. Oh yeh and i have voted for Raja and they had right singing those songs. So please dont say stuff like that about us lot!!
@Laxshmi i am voting for Junaid and i have a strong feeling he is not going to go out this week, well he hopefully wont..
xxxxx
@ Sid & $hashi
I agree with you both Junaid & Poonam should of got higher than Maui they sang soo much better than her. i didnt understand her singing to be honest
lol
xxxxxxx
Eric
Only time the pakis have gotten lowest 3 was after ID special, when they sang the least popular songs ( atleast 99% of indians had never heard of them)
Otherwise, the indian janta has voted off indians before the pakis..
I dont think the indian janta is biased but if you make them choose between famous indian patriotic songs that every kid knows and some unknown songs, albiet well sung, guess which song they will choose?
i wld consider independence day special results as an anomaly rather then evidence of bias against the pakis by the indian public..
in any case, i think aneek, poonam and raja belong in the same category as mussarat , amanat and junaid..talentwise
just wish the gurus didnt play politics thats all
Vani,
Go on youtube and search for Sumitra or Sumitra Iyer.
Even I live in the US, you can watch all shows on http://www.muft.tv
I agree in the recording studio the song was sung by 3 singers, but hear Sumitra and her effort and then compare Mauli.
As I said, the judges should have picked it up.
Thanks.
Partiality is so obvious now that judges suck. How come they have no criticism for Raja, Aneek, Mauli and Sumedha. Are they all perfect singers or what ??? Raja’s performance was not good at all(even with his own standards) and for the judges to be giving him 10/10 is completely unfair to other good singers.
No judges seems to care abt Aneek as well. Why r they trying to favour some contestants over others? Beats me!!!
Its a common knowledge Mauli is always favoured so no point discussing that further.
Junaid,Poonam and Mussarat despite being good singers are suffering the most coz of favouritism.
Hello vani
Any idea what going to happen next.
Did you ask for star voice of india’s link.
http://www.starvoi.com/2007/08/videos-of-18th-august-episode-of-amul.html
All the best and take care.
hey vijay..
thanx for the link.I hv zee at home so i use to watch it there n whenever i missed the show i used to catch it up on the website.. even the repeat comes at freaking 8.30 am in the mrg.. which is too early for weekend..
now i can catchup the starvoice as well..
i hope it is of same standard as this 1 cause indianidol sucks this time..
well we all know how the judgement is coming along lately..:(
no wonder felt cheated is feeling cheated.. we too…
hello ossama..
lots of action huh.. i just pray that junaid is saved..while reading other comments my heart sinked abt pple’s jundgement for him..so i hv voted for him as many times I cud..
I really want him to stay little longer as he is in top 4 in my list.
I think its definately time for mauli to go out..I really wish she should go .. n if not her sumedha or harpreet..but i hv a kinda strange feeling considering audiences reaction to mauli .. they actually scream mauli mauli with all praises.. eeooowww…..
my elimination wish list would be:
1. mauli
2. sumedha
3. harpreet
i like mussarat but his performance has not been very consistent .. he like mauli is 1 genere singer- sufi.. some of his songs were terrific but others not at all.. but considering his popularity next in the list would be him
4. mussarat
n thanks a lot for the starvoice link..
TC
Vani,
I never watched StarVoice before and after the 18th August SAREGAMAPA, i was so disgusted with the results, that I tried going on web and search for StarVoice.
You will be amazed there are some really good singers (female and male). There are 3 Female singer of the calibre of Poonam ( Priyani,Sumitra,Mirande) while 3 good male singers ( Harshmit,Aabhas,Irfan).
Watch the episode with Sonu Nigam as the Judge. It just blew me away. Specially Priyani’s singing of “Barso Re” from Guru.
Happy Viewing.
I think its very clear now… Zee Tv wants this to be an “International” competition and not just “India-Pakistan” competition. And hence, they don’t want Mauli to get out from the show ( even if she screams, not sing, on top of her voice ) I totally agree if Mauli gets 10 from all the judges, then Junaid or Poonam or others deserve 100 from the judges!!!
Divya, US
hi vijay..
yeah u were absolutely right.. i quite liked sumitra and mirnda..in guys i liked aabhas but still i wud take the liberty to say that guys in sa re are much better..
..
hey this guy toshi was gud but isn;’t he the same guy who was in sa re ga doubles.. and was with a gal from east india( a very bad singer too)they had some prbs with each other..
didnt knw it has alka as judge,, i quiet like her and her crtical n fair comments but sometimes she goes overboard as it happened in sa re ga little champs..
thanx for introducing something gud to watch
Hello all commentors
i have a request for all of u to plz plz vote for three Pakistanis (Junaid, Mussarat and Amanat)be realistic guys they really want ur support and votes. they haven got much votes on the last show of independense and now they are counting the votes for the two weeks thats bullshi…i am not asking much…i know they wont be in the top three but still we can try because we are the janta and it is in our hand now i know no one dislikes all three Pakistanis plz help them out and vote for them at
http://www.saregamapa.rediff.com
thanx…
omg mauliv SUCKS!!! that girl can only sing songs that allow her to tear her voice as much as possible!! she cannot sing slow songs..she needs to go. they just hyped her too much only her first performance was gud other than that she’s just a REPEAT!!! Sumedha and Poonam are versatile singers…and deserve more appreciation than mauli. And please she ain’t nothing like SHAKIRA…shakira can dance and shake wat her mama gave her…mauli on the other hand has nothing but a TORN-UP BESURA VOICE! like they say it aint over til the fat lady sings…
In saregamapa 2005 himani sang item songs well yet at the same time proved herself as a versatile singer with hot slow songs! mauli just plainly sucks as a singer and bappi lahiri is on drugs to even call compare her to shakira…!!!
MAULI NEEDS TO GO! plz don’t vote for her and if she wins this contest i am quitting watching this show…
btw this is my elimination list:
MAULI
MAULI
MAULI

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& MAULI
About 2 months ago I started following Sa Re Ga Ma Pa 2007 challenge and got hooked in no time. However, since the Independence Day episode I am hugely disappointed in the tactics used by the TV network.
Zee TV and the show’s judges need to realize the show is about the contestants and their talent and nothing else. The network totally exploited the Indo/Pak issue for ratings. The ID special should have been just a special without any voting being conducted, and avoiding the more-deserving contestants to be in the bottom 3.
All I can say is Good Luck to all the deserving and truly talented contestants – you guys don’t need this title to prove your talent, you’re already stars.
AMANAT – what can I say, YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
As a smart audience, we are capable of making the right choice – if we don’t like something on TV, we can just switch the channel or better yet DISCONNECT ZEE TV (we don’t want to pay over $30/month to watch this kind of political exploitation).

if mauli is out of the contest then which TOPIC will b discussed here???????????????it has become a habit 2 discuss her. mauli is this mauli is that she should b out of
contest bla bla bla.
i m not in her favour.
BUT jab acha gati ha tab to us ki khichai mat karo.
m i right?
Vani,
The first time I watched Star Voice, I felt the same ( Boys in Saregama were better than the ones in StarVoice). But after listening to a few more episodes, I feel they are a good bunch.
In Saregama, Raja is a very good singer, but in my view, he has a typical style of singing. Amanat on the other hand has tried his hand on even Lata’s songs ( Rasme Ulfat) and added his own touch.
I find Amanat and Poonam to be the best all round singers. While Raja and Aneek are like Sukhwinder & Sonu. But we already have the originals singing, so my vote is still for Amanat & Poonam.
This Saregama is a disappointment ( Not because of singing) but because of the bias.
The Maha guru’s like Ashaji & Khayyam were very frank. Anandji was biased, Rajesh Roshan good to every one. No wonder they got rid of Asha in the first round, else Mauli would not have survived.
Apparently StarVoice is going to get Lata as a Judge in the finals.Which will be great. Saregama should have the final judge panel comprising of Asha, Shubha Mudgal, Pandit Jasraj kind, people who are frank and are not bothered calling a spade a spade.
Shut your mouth up..you guys have nothing better in this world to do but hate Mauli. What has she done to you? She is just like all other young aspirants trying to make it.
Sunidhi faced exactly similar hatred but rest is the history. Despite being from USA, I feel proud that a young Indian girl has such charisma and the guts to be what she is.. She may not be the most versatile singer but she has done good enough to be where she is.. so shut your f mouth up..and stop blogging and even watching the show if you cant stand it..you hpocrates..and trust me i know music more than most of you guys here..(without boasting..)
hey outlook person…yep i totally agree with u…ppl in this forum got nothing better to do than COMPLAIN ABT MAULI.
and nice comparison to sunidhi =): look at where she is today. =)
@sid,shashi.vani.Vijay
Agree with ur views!Poonam who is such a power house is not given much attention.Same way Musrrat & janaid.Musarat & Junaid were so down on the friday show that i had tears in my eyes.The Guru’s have really become MAHAGURU’s! they should stop commenting.The intelligent(?)viewers r getting fooled by that & the voting is affected..Also,Zee’s politics is unbearable!StarVoice is an excellent show.I also like that the contestants r very focused & the contestants r judged based on quality & not by glamour..which is distracting current Saregama show.That is all because Gajendra singh is on Star & has left Zee bcse of their politics.i also love Shaan.he is very good singer,sincere & matured person,perfect host!No backstage activities like Aditya!
Zee should stop this public voting but they won’t as they r earning through sms.
Pls let not a single pakistani go into trishanku..
& my bro & sis of Pakistan,i am an indian & live in US.so don’t complain.i listen to Amanat’s eh watan again & again along with poonam’s vandemataram!
Was Junaid reading lyrics from his hand?
@shaneeza
Junaid is already in trouble pls don’t start any controversy! we all know he is a good singer,forgetting lyrics is not a big thing here,singine better is!
We need to support him at this hour ,atleast that is my one step to fight against the injustice going on this show,it really hurts me a lot!

To basumatika…
Don’t get me wrong, I would hate to see Junaid leave the show because I love him. I was just wondering if he was reading from his hand and why the judges didn’t say anything.
i think that all the singers sang well in this 31st episode. not being negative, and not trying to offend mauli, but her singing was just horrible…i found her song to be the worst of all, and i just dont understand how she got all 10′s. oh by the way mauli, whats up with u lifting up ur nose like a pig when u laugh and sing.one thing i have to say about bappida is that he is racist. i belive he is being really unfair becuase i have noticed in this episode and the previous episodes i have watched that bappida has given the pakistani boys low marks, even if there performances were excellent.. i think we need to find a better judge than bappida, he really has to leave the show..Bappida and Mauli..im sorry if u mind but u 2 are horrible!!!
i ve been watching saregamapa snc last 12 yrs.i love this show n i m totally crazy abt it.a viewer also likes to see the correct judgement.
currently this show is heading towards favourism .a clear example is – mauli. i m really getting surprise y the gr8 md like bappi lahri favours her.
i wld rate raja as the best among male n sumedha among female.
to be honest my rating wld be :
1# RAJA
2# MUSSARAT
3# ANEK
4# AMANAT
5# SUMEDHA
NOTE* MAULI DOESNT DESERVE TO BE ON STAGE.
ohhhhhh juniad ilove ur voice and i really love u . ur 2 hott, i like ur smile very much. its really killing . i want that you remail till the end of saregamapa. i really love uuuuuuuuuuuuu. i think ur smile is going to kill me . i wah i can meet u but i know its not possible. if i met u i m surely goonna kiss u on ur lips. always be happy . take care. i love uuuuuuuuuuuuu sweetheart
hi poonam
i wish u all the best and u will make it dont cry , concentrate on ur work and leave the rest to the world
luv
lakshmi
vishalji and sekahrji pls keep up with ur judging u r too good,rest of them are blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Raja’s voice cracked when singing the part “tum samandar ke dhani twice”.
He was given perfect 10. Maybe ignorant janta will not notice this mistake.
Muahhhhhh to Vishal-Shekhar for not getting sucked in this sic contrived “love triangle” drama. Ask the other judges to cut the crap pls. Was ok for a couple of episodes – getting stretched out of proportion now. Keep it up Vishal n Shekhar – you guys rock! Keep the dignity alive; love you for it!
hi guys.. I think Amanat, Mussarat and Raja did a fantastic job. I dont know if you guys know but while ago there was a competition between university/college students on saregamapa and there was this one guy I think his nick name was “zulu” (I might have spelled it wrong) I dont remember his real name. But he also sang “Piya Haji Ali” and he did a fantastic job. I would love to see/hear that again… if anybody has that video I would request that you share with us.
Thank you very much
-B.M
AMANAT IS THE BEST SO FAR DOMINATING EACH AND EVERYONE WITH HIS BEYOND MIND BLOWING PERFORMANCES, I AM JUST WATCHING THE ZEE SAREGAMAPA SHOW BECAUSE OF AMANAT AND ONLY FOR AMANAT, HATS OFF TO HIM IN EVERY ASPECT.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
SORRY FOR THE NAME == CRUX == ITS JUST MY NICK
MY NAME IS KALYAN, I AM FROM ANDHRA PRADESH, VISAKHAPATNAM, I APOLOGIZE IF I HURT ANYONES FEELING, ABOUT MY OPINION ON ZEE SAREGAMAPA CONTESTANTS
hi all
i think today raja gave the best performance by singing the omkara song.it really suits his voice and he rocked today pls vote for him.
