    I am a regular audience of this show. I was voting for aneek till last week but I have finally realised that he is betraying his presence on the show just by singing sonu’s songs along with raja who is also singing more of sukhwinder singh or AR Rahman songs. But now I have set aside all my biased decisions and I request all the audience to vote for amanat for the reason that He is singing all kinds of songs especially “Mitwa”. I think this is the right time for him to sing outstanding songs which he hasn’t sung. Also I would like to see Aneek at N0.2 and Raja at No.3. I also request audience that voting is not controllable. But still these guys will be recognised in industry.

      As far as my knowledge for singing is concerned. The actual ranking of contestants would have been:-
      Mussarat
      Amanat
      Junaid
      Raja
      Poonam
      Aneek
      Sumedha
      Harpreet
      Shaberi

                              lol..it’s all fair! I was never a Raja hater. I do like him. He is a strong singer. You will win hands down and I do hope you win cuz I really can’t sleep on the couch.

                                        Good News for Anik And Raja fans.

                                        1- Anik got 9 lac votes only from india.
                                        2- Raja few thousand below than Anik.
                                        3- Poor Amanat just got less than 7 lac.

                                        Hope right person wins.

                                            Dear Anonji,

                                            Literally driving down memory lane for me(albeit this would be around 80’s or so)

                                            Mohd. Rafi in Malhar(or Monsoon) in Mumbay at Marine Drive = Music exponent 4 (or Music raise to 4).

                                            Also, as we say in Mumbai majja raise to 4.

                                            :)

                                            Actually for this song, Aneek might have been a better choice. He has the right timbre of voice and would be closest to Rafi (as compared to either Amanat or Raja).

                                            Before folks flame me this is an impartial opinion with no subjective bias and no implications on who should win.

                                              All the people listen carefully!
                                              I at least want me to be in the same room so start voting. If Aneek wins I will literally go to India and find Aneek and torture him until he admits that he sucks! You think i am kidding? Think again! lol..no this is crap! What do people see in him. He seriously is not good.

                                                long time !

                                                yeah ,this song can def bring out the nostaglia abt driving in the rain!

                                                man o man ,im so excited

                                                see while i am not sure amanat will do justice to the song, but so far he has been pretty spot on with every other song that i have hope… he hasnt screwed up ANY song , thus far to his credit

                                                aneek would be good for this too. but the soul of the song would require a little more dum daar awaaz, aneek somehow hasnt cut it for me in rafi songs. its like sonu in his preteen years singing rafi, however the kid is spot on in technically.

                                                this song requires a little more world wearniness, some sexiness, some thing intangible..

                                                oh gosh rafi saab was too good..

                                                      Seriously, Rafiji’s voice had a timbre which is closer to Aneek(and yes I agree despite some limitations Aneek is better technically than Raja except when it comes to classical singing or ghazal’s…but here Amanat has the home advantage. It’s similar to having a round on Rabindrosangeet - Aneek would beat everyone hands down ;)) than Amanat’s.

                                                        Please please don’t compare any singer with rafi…

                                                        Before comparing with rafi just listen rafisaabs each & every different songs..

                                                        He can touch high note like yahoo chahe koi muze..
                                                        He can touch low note without music like.. Me yen sochker uske ghar se chala tha..

                                                        & Rafi.. Mukesh..have completely different singer & I don’t think somebody will come with that level.

                                                          i often check out this forum- great unknown gems of rafisaab, its a great forum for kishore da, lata ji and asha ji too..

                                                          http://www.hamaraforums.com/index.php?showforum=2

                                                          A voice never forgotten

                                                          R. KRITHIKA

                                                          Mohammed Rafi died 25 years ago but his voice continues to charm listeners of another generation.

                                                          ENDURING APPEAL: Mohammed Rafi

                                                          Tum mujhe yun bhoola na paoge/jab kabhi bhi sunoge geet mere/sung sung tum bhi gun gunaoge.

                                                          (You will not be able to forget me/whenever you hear my song/you will sing along with me)

                                                          NOT one of Mohammed Rafi’s best songs, but it perhaps best expresses his enduring appeal. An appeal that continues 25 years after the man died on July 31, 1980.

                                                          Growing up in the 1970s with only a radio for entertainment, it was hard not to miss Rafi’s voice. As you begin to search the Rafi repertoire, it is hard not to be amazed by the singer’s range.

                                                          Versatile

                                                          Just two films give one an idea of his versatility. Naushad’s score for “Baiju Bawra” (1952) was strictly classical. The peppy Tu Ganga ki mauj was offset by the brooding Man tarpat. The breezily romantic Jhoole me pawan gave way to anguished O Duniya ke rakhwale.

                                                          Similarly in “Pyasa” (music by S.D. Burman), Rafi songs were all huge hits — from the comic Sar jo tera chakraye to that ode to a dysfunctional society Ye duniya agar mil bhi jaye; from love (Hum aap ki ankhon mein) to despair (Jinhe naaz hai hind par). As the mood changes from despair to anger in Ye duniya agar mil bhi jaye, the listener can’t help but be moved by the pain and tears in the singer’s voice.

                                                          It was S.D. Burman again who chose Rafi for the three crucial songs in “Guide” at a time when the Kishore Kumar wave was sweeping everyone off its path. Rafi got Tere mere sapne; Kya se kya ho gaya and Din dhal jaaye to Kishore’s one Gata rahe mera dil.

                                                          Shammi Kapoor’s image as the “Junglee”-”Jaanwar”-”Budtameez” of Hindi cinema owed its very existence to Rafi’s voice. Even while “yahooing” across the silver screen, melody was never very far away — Hum aur tum aur ye sama (”Dil Dekhe deko”); Is rang badalti duniya mein (”Rajkumar”).

                                                          Beginnings

                                                          Rafi was born in Kotla Sultansingh (now in Pakistan) and landed in Bombay via the Lahore film industry. After Partition, he stayed on in India convinced that his future was here. How right he was! In a few years his career had soared and he had sung for all the major heroes — and some not so major ones.

                                                          Whether it was Rajendra Kumar, Bharat Bhushan, Dilip Kumar, Dev Anand, Biswajeet to the latter day Jeetendra, Rajesh Khanna, and even Rishi Kapoor, all lip synced to Rafi’s voice.

                                                          Rafi’s love songs traversed the highs and lows of that fickle emotion — Suhani raat dhal chuki (”Dulari”); Akele hain chale ao (”Raaz”); Baharon phool barsao (”Suraj”); Ae husn zara jaag (”Mere Mehboob”); Jaag dil e deewana (Unche Log); Main yeh sochkar (”Haqeeqat”).

                                                          Some were absolute godsends to roadside Romeos all over the country — Chupnewale samne aa (”Tumsa Nahin Dekha”); Deewane ka naam to poocho (”An Evening in Paris”); Badan pe sitare (”Prince”), Lal chadi maidan khadi (”Janwar”).

                                                          It was Rafi who sang what is perhaps the least inoffensive of double entendres in Hindi film songs — Apni to har aah ek toofan hai (”Kala Bazaar”). Listen to the mischievous emphasis on “uparwala jaan kar anjaan hai” as a debonair Dev Anand serenaded Waheeda Rahman.

                                                          When he entered the field, singers like Talat Mehmood and Mukesh, though great in their own way, had been typecast. Along came Rafi who could sing at any pitch or mood that the composer wanted.

                                                          At the height of the Kishore wave, O.P. Nayyar is reputed to have said, “Just give me one song and I’ll put an end to this nonsense they’re saying about Rafi.” Listen to Tumse kahoon ek baat (”Dastak”) or the Tumhari zulf ke saye (”Naunihal”), Tum jo mil gaye ho (”Hanste Zakhm”) to understand the composer’s unshaken belief in the singer, though Madan Mohan tuned these songs. Rafi’s various songs for Nayar include the flirtatious Sun sun sun zalima (”Aar Paar”); Taarif karoon kya uski (”Kashmir ki Kali”); Aeji dil par hua aisa jadoo (”Mr. And Mrs. 55″); Aap ke haseen rukh par (”Baharen phir bhi ayengi”).

                                                          Many moods

                                                          Rafi’s voice evokes myriad emotions in the listener — Dekhi zamaane ki yaari (”Kagaz ke Phool”); Na kisi ki aankh ka noor hoon (”Lal Qila”); Duniya na bhaye (”Basant Bahar”) may leave you down in the dumps but Khoya khoya chand (”Kala Bazaar”); Jawaniyan ye (”Tumsa Nahin Dekha”) can lift the depression.

                                                          Feeling patriotic? Then listen to Ab tumhare hawale watan (”Haqeeqat”); Aye watan (”Shaheed”) or Jahan daal daal par (”Sikander-e-azam”). A philosophical mood pervades Man re tu kahe na (”Chitralekha”).

                                                          While Rafi is well known for his film songs, his non-film songs too are equally melodious. The best known are probably Paanv padu tore shyaam and Gazab kiya tere waade, but others like Shaam ke deepak jale; Do ghadi baitho and Kya yaad tumhe hum aayenge are as captivating.

                                                          Rafi would have been a great singer at any point of time but he was fortunate to enter Hindi films when music reigned supreme, when films ran on the strength of their music, when great composers and lyricists were falling over each other to make music

                                                            u r right abt the timbre in aneeks voice being similar to rafi saab, just like sonu`s is

                                                            and technically he is v good, ergo the manna dey in the classical round

                                                            what he lacks to me in the non sonu nigam songs is that it sounds v high pitched one dimensional, he lacks the variation of the bass in the voice.. what do u think? there is something lacking that i cant quiet put my finger on , but the voice sounds too young to express the depth of emotions of the songs of rafi

                                                              Thank you so much for this. I remember Rafi sahab ge guzar jaane ke baad, I was quite heartbroken. One question (I was very young those days) was who would now take this maha gawaiyya’s place ?

                                                              It’s very funny that you mentioned Hamaraforum’s. After this forum, that was the other I tried for admission. I tried many a day’s and then gave up when I could not upload a zip/rar file for downloading a clip I was desperately looking for. I gave up at that point…

                                                              The thumri I was looking for was -

                                                              Shobha Gurtu - Kunjan Mein (in Raag Tilang).

                                                              If you could assist me in this quest, yours truly would be truly grateful (or greatfool as we say in Mumbai).

                                                                  Apologies.

                                                                  I missed your other comment on Aneek.

                                                                  Aneek used to have a good thehrav when he joined SRGMP. He has lost it in his anxiety to fit in and “belt out” numbers instead of singing. Blame this on HR. He is too hyper and sings too much in tivre (high/augmented notes) so when he tries kharaj it comes out as shuddh.

                                                                  Unfortunately, In SRGMP everyone (except for Amanat) uptil now has tried to shout/shriek the higher notes in an effort to be popular…the idea being similar to rock songs, people think good singing is when the singer does cheekna/chillana as opposed to laikari and sur/harkats).

                                                                  About the basso part, on occasions when Aneek (and in fact even Amanat) tries to render the lower octave, he/they go flat. The best example of Kharaj singing would be Pt. Jasraj himself or Jagjit Singhji’s ghazal’s. When these singers have to go to the higher notes and phekav(or throw) they control their vocal cords and voice box modulation as opposed to shouting…Which is why in my earlier notes I had said that Mussarat while good, needs to still learn a lot in this context. Although as i48999ji has said, Mussarat was stuck to the Qawwali/Pop fusion people are calling as Sufi singing nowadays (the actual sufi singing is something else, pls. explore with your exemplary search skills and you will discover some of the most melodious music under that genre)…

                                                                  So Amanat is more patient and there fore has the thehrav (though he has very poor breath control). He also has a more mature voice, understands adaygi and harkats in the ghazal genre. Lastly, his talaffuz is obviously the best and therefore the last round was tailor made for him.

                                                                  Although, as I was telling Rekha, I thought Poonam was pretty close to being the best, If not the best, in that round for me (again opinions may differ). Real unfair, what happened and everyone knows this for a fact.

                                                                  -$0.02Worth

At that point cutiepie will say who is this MM i don’t know him. I did all this for u Raja. It will be all over on the 13th and we will be back to our own lives. It’s the life on entertainment but I always do hope that everyone succeeds especially the ones who are really good and deserve much more.

                                                                                As most of you are speaking about the versatility of Amanat….ONE question, can AMANAT sing “Tauba, main pyar kar ke”…. or the song form “Bhul Bhulaiya” as ANEEK….

                                                                                Can RAJA do it either….

                                                                                If you understand music even remotely and do not just go by the “expert comments” which have been varying….for everybody then u all should be voting for ANEEK…

                                                                                Answer the question…before opposing my view…

                                                                                • At 2007.10.04 23:37, Rashid said:

                                                                                  It is not the matter for who copy perfectly….
                                                                                  Just read this comment from the guest
                                                                                  1. Deepika - Though you sang close to original, but there was so much Amanat in the song

                                                                                  It is good to sing close but need to keep voice impression from him self in this song & Aneek is fail in this matter. Aneek have few in past like league match (Point will not count).

                                                                                  • At 2007.10.04 23:39, Manik_mia said:

Raja is behaving like a showman more than a perfect singer and trying to sang different songs. He has tried to sang rafi’s songs this week and done a complete massaker. Amanat is good but he has some sort of mistakes but Aneek Dhar is just Outstanding and most near to the perfectness. Please vote for Aneek. He is really a good talent and would be a good singer or perhaps the geat singer in future. Today Raja is no one followed by Amanat and Aneek but time will tell different story when 13th october will come. Aneek will be at first at last and those who are doing injustice with him will be surprised and Spellbound. Keep the pasion and wait till Aneek’s Win. Himesh will be very happy at that time and I also.

                                                                                            • At 2007.10.05 00:36, voiceofindia said:

In the era of electronic based instruments were live musician’s trend is no where to be seen.. Sa Re Ga Ma Pa team is going to present us with a special episode on violin, guitar and Rythm based songs..

                                                                                              Adnan Sami is going to rock the stage with his thundering performance.. All the three mega finalists Raja Hasan, Aneek Dhar and Amanat Ali gave their best performance.. but the one who stole the limelight is Amanat Ali.. His singing style leaves everyone speechless on the sets..

                                                                                              • At 2007.10.05 00:39, anjali said:

                                                                                                yes i will first answer your question.I think the question was,

                                                                                                can AMANAT sing “Tauba, main pyar kar ke”…. or the song form “Bhul Bhulaiya” as ANEEK….

                                                                                                Can RAJA do it either….

                                                                                                right???

                                                                                                I doubt about raja…. he may or may not sing them as good as aneek did.. but about amanat…
                                                                                                I am damn sure he can sing them better then Aneek… do you remember his dil lutiya performance??? if u do how can u doubt?

                                                                                                Another fact i like about amanat is that he doesn’t sing much of such catchy and other typical filmy songs because he tries to explore and present the maximum of his talent then to just choose a simple song with minimum scope of error.

                                                                                                Can aneek sing:
                                                                                                jaane kahan gaye woh din, rasmein ulfat ko nibhayen,yeh honsala kaise jhhuke etc etc even close to amanat and not to forget the very latest hungama hai kyun barpa (if u notice in the gazal episode when raja and amanat chose to sing gazals of gazal maestro gulam Ali Aneek again chose a filmy gazal)

                                                                                                • At 2007.10.05 00:40, Divya said:

Raja however wants to be versitile as he has attempted and after contest finishes will probably take training to improve his range. he has the oice of a legend and I can assure you all he will be one! amanath should only be a classical singer not pay back, he can sing classical and punjabi songs only, he struggles with western songs, did u here his accent when he sang the word in mitwa “find a way” ?

                                                                                                    I like to see good singer will win.

                                                                                                    However, other two also as good as winner. They are behind for only last three episodes.

                                                                                                    May be May be after finale everybody will forget them as usual. Only few people like to remember them.

                                                                                                        maybe you are accent comprehending is little deficient. Have you heard Aneek sing? All along he has picked easy songs. Not one hard song so far. I waited and waited for him to prove it but he failed. Last year ID won so this year it has to be either HR or VS. Most likely, it will be HR since he has been crying about it for the past one year that from somone from his ghrana will win. What a loser! ZeeTv will give it it him. So why are you so worried? It’s all politics. I can tell you that Aneek will not get any contract whatsoever just like last year winner. Give Aneek 5 more years before he makes it as a playback singer. Raja has a voice! His voice has deepness that people like hearing. So stop imposing your technically on others. You know better than the gurus who praised Amanat? Give me a break!

                                                                                                            as far accent is concerned, hindi movie songs have more hindi words then english. Aneek has a big difficulty in pronouncing many of the very common hindi words, a vey simple example is the word ‘nahi’ which he pronounces as ‘nehi’ and there are many more more like this.

                                                                                                            So, difficult in speaking ‘find a way’ is still acceptable but in speaking ‘nahi’ is not especially in hindi movies.

                                                                                                                  As we all know that Mussarat is no more the part of SRGMP so we can guess how much struggle he has to undergo to make it a big. He has got a real talent. He has already won our hearts…So my friends just think can we do something for him. Can we do something to help Mussarat make his first solo album, and bring it to the Market. And one more imp thing is there is a rumor that Mussarat has got the offer from A R Rehman. That is all false.

                                                                                                                  • At 2007.10.05 02:37, yogi said:

                                                                                                                    Can you please take some initiative in this. U r the owner of this Website and U know how popular is Mussarat Abbas. U know everybody wants to hear Mussarat’s voice again and again, so why don’t we do something for this. I believe you can make a difference. Please don’t ignore this fact and lets do something about this. After this SRGMP show ends, what’s next, so lets not Mussarat vanish like other past contestants.

                                                                                                                    yogi

                                                                                                                            Raja u r performing wall & u r performance is improving day by day since himesh give you strict comments against u. Now u r enjoying your performance.

                                                                                                                            I saw in news channel just now everybody enjoying Raja’s performance in final even ID also but himesh was very quite.

                                                                                                                            now there is tough competition between three.

                                                                                                                                  If you look at the list of songs sung by each 3 of them you will see that most variety of songs came from Amanat.
                                                                                                                                  Highest one singer’s song came from Aneek; he sang 9 Sonu Nigam’s songs. Next is Raja; he sang 7 Sukhwinder’s song.
                                                                                                                                  Look at the statistics below:

                                                                                                                                  Sonu’s songs Aneek 9, Amanat 5 Raja 1
                                                                                                                                  Rafi’s songs Aneek 4, Amanat 3, Raja 1
                                                                                                                                  Sukhwinder’s songs Raja 7, Amanat 0, Aneek 0,
                                                                                                                                  Kishore’s songs Aneek 3, Amanat 4, Raja 3.

                                                                                                                                  If someone says Amanat is only a classical or Punjabi singer as forcasted by Divya, I have to say it is wrong.
                                                                                                                                  You may not like his songs but do not bring wrong information on the table.
                                                                                                                                  Thanks,

                                                                                                                                    I can bet neither will be able to RAP in both the songs the way Aneek did……I having stayed in US for 8 years know how difficult is to get he rhythm and the pronunciations right in a RAP song…Amanat is good in softer songs but not this type of fusion or contemporary songs…

                                                                                                                                    Also for those who think Aneek chose all easy songs….please explain me how in the world is ” Laaga Chunri mein Daag” an easy song to sing….

                                                                                                                                    Also when one cites deepika padukone comments on Amanat being oneself while being close to the original……why do u neglect the comment on how Shekhar (who certainly has better music sense) said that Aneek was fabulous in laga chunri mein daag and sung it the way he wanted to sing and not copied anyone…

                                                                                                                                    As far as the ghazal episode is concerened Aneek had to sing the song of some radio channel gave him and not his choice of sone…..anjali, by singing laga chunri mein daag he has proved he can sing the most difficult songs, which are based on indian classical music…

                                                                                                                                        You can not ask Md Rafi to sing Mukesh�s song or Manna Dey�s to Kishore Kumar or any other order.
                                                                                                                                        Everyone had there own style and fan followers. Everyone was successful in there own terms.
                                                                                                                                        Here I am seeing the competition is going on like Raja�s fan will say can Aneek sing Piya Haji Ali or Aneek�s fan will say can Amanat sing RAP song or Amanat�s fan will say can Raja or Aneek sing Mitwa etc. They can not do that. They are different singers with different style. But have already proved enough to be successful in their life. Now who ever has the most fans will win.

                                                                                                                                        Guys who are in USA already know if you can sell 1 million CD you are already a millionaire.
                                                                                                                                        I am sure they will cut even more in couple of more years.

                                                                                                                                        Thanks.

                                                                                                                                          I seem to have missed another comment from you. I am as unschooled as the next lay person on HCM (as I say not even a novice, below that). Just a very active interest and autodidactic/experiential(as opposed to pedantic).

                                                                                                                                          Ok, first of all Thehrav, a song/composition has various basic elements to it as follows - swar(or the corrupted word sur)/notes, laya/flow or tempo, tal/beats and the harkat’s/emotion. When a novice singer tries to sing a song he usually will rush some parts, some words will overlap and especially where he has to put in emotions or harkats(a long taan for example) he will be out of synch. This is easily discernible in a lot of performances. If you listen to an expert singer he seems to be almost doing poetry recitation, the amount of time he has. On the other hand as I said before, novice singers will try to rush which is easily made out in Aneek’s case who seems to be in a hurry to finish the song.

                                                                                                                                          In Amanaat’s case, when he tries to sing with thehrav since thehrav requires holding breath while doing vocal modulations, he goes out of breath. If you see his video’s in the last round like the ghazal round you will notice this.

                                                                                                                                          Of all the contestants though, since he comes from patiala gharana+has ID for guru he is the only one who sings technically correct and which is why you saw the comments from Pt. Jasraj and Jagjit Singhji. Is he ready for “good” singing ? IMHO he still needs to do riyaaz for 2-3 years.

                                                                                                                                          I think you are a fan of Mussarat :), so maybe I should not comment further. This song chal chal is a mix of Ahir-Bhairav(the same, which forms the base for poocho na kaise from last night) and puriya dhanashree. If you listen to the mukhda in this clip and compare it with the clip by Sukhwinder, you will notice two things immediately -
                                                                                                                                          1> Mussarat’s voice quavers on the notes…shows his lack of training and the fact that he is struggling to render the pitch of the note while maintaining the sargam.
                                                                                                                                          2> Listen a bit carefully to the pitch of the note in the initial sargam. You will notice in Sukhwinder’s voice, modulation, ranging from shuddh(normal) to komal(basso or low notes). Actually Sukhwinder’s voice is a natural baritone but he manages the modulation very well. Mussarat’s voice is flat/shuddh and follows the sargam without the pitch…just to illustrate…

                                                                                                                                          Of course you are comparing a very high quality singer to someone who has just started his career. Pls. don’t come after me with a gun :)

                                                                                                                                          I have eclectic tastes in music and used to be quite a metal head(still listen to a lot of heavy rock). In the western music world vocal ranges are classified and a lot of rock singers would fall in the category of countertenor or the capability to sing soprano (they have different genres and different vocal ranges such as basso profundo to basso or baritone/bass-baritone, tenor etc…). They also switch to falsetto as compared to their normal voices during a performance, its a natural gift and they can hit very high notes without losing clarity…I used to be(still am) a fan of Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath/Ozzy, GnR, Jimi Hendrix and quite a few groups…in the Ballad Genre Bob Seger(Silver Bullet Band) rules according to me :)…Long Live Classic Rock!!

                                                                                                                                          As far as HF goes the problem is not in unzipping, but in uploading. For some reason I am unable to upload content for me to be able to d/l.

I quoted that from memory(and I did not confuse him with Shafqat or his father the earlier Amanat Ali). I am aware that their exists a Pakistani Patial Gharana and I must have read something somewhere…

Both her singing and on-stage presence were phenomenal. She seemed completely at ease. Yet when it ended, there was no standing ovation, and only a cursory, it was good, etc., etc. I must confess to not knowing hindi and relying on the reviews at this site. Even ID did not go to the stage in support of Poonam as he did so readily for Amanat and others on many occasions. There was over all a lukewarm reaction. I can put this down only to sexism and devaluing of individuals lacking “glamor”. After all bollywood runs on glamor & hype.
                                                                                                                                                  I wish the best for Poonam and hope she takes up classical music as suggested by Panditji.

                                                                                                                                                        I agree with you. One can do magic in the studio nowadays. Anyone can be made to sound good but you cannot do the same live…If somebody is excellent they can be made to sound sublime in the studio.

                                                                                                                                                        But if people do not use the right note(sur), the right pitch or the laya etc…it shows. I am not saying they are good or bad etc…I am merely pointing out some nuances to a friend…

                                                                                                                                                              let all of us support all the 3 singers who are gud in their own way. vote for whom u like. but dont attack singers. they are just doing what they know best. lets support them and not act as cheap as the judges.

Not only did HR have the guts to sing his own songs while a guest (not an actor guest but a singer guest!) is brought to saregama but he also sorta cut off the Adnan songs that were being sung.

                                                                                                                                                                        makes me wonder, was it all zeetv’s planning? did they tell the crowd to yell HR’s name?

                                                                                                                                                                            Aneek is by far the best singer.

                                                                                                                                                                            This is pure pseudo secularism going right now.

                                                                                                                                                                                I would like to highlight, what Himesh did on yesterday’s show (05/10/2007). When raja was singing, after that himesh said that he needs to improve on how to finish words or the antara’s properly…and same thing when amant made mistake and Ismailji was bit upset then he supported amant. I don’t think so that is correct. I think he is not happy that raja is on top he is worried about aneek. I think he is just showing off that he is supporting all contestants, but he does not mean it. I find him very artificial. I really thank Vishal and Shekhar that they reached on time to support RAJA he really required it…….Please all the fans of raja and Vishal, Shekhar Vote………karooooooo……Dil Se ….for Raja…..I am working professional and while working I keep this site open and I keep voting for raja…….continuously ……Raja I love your voice you will Win…..Take care. With lots of love…….DEEPA GIDNAVAR.

                                                                                                                                                                                  ID is not supporting him at all like V/S and HR is supporting their students. Poor Amanat has to beg HR to appeal votes for him. I never remember ID asked votes for Amanat (Plz correct me if I’m wrong).
                                                                                                                                                                                  Even in this last episode, ID did not ask votes for him and rest of mentors asked votes for their students as others have better voting than Amanat. Amanat asked ID to support for him in voting as he’s behind. Still ID didn’t go ahead and asked people to vote for him. To whom he should ask…? HR V/S or who??
                                                                                                                                                                                  ID learn some lesson from others and support your student. It’s enough to say all the times that “I’m very proud that Amanat is in my gharana”. Its your goodluck that you have a diamond. Now take care of your diamond and give me some value to make him kohinoor. Learn some lesson how to appreciate your student from other mentors.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Thanks!

I was very disappointed.Therefore, I tried this formula below to cure myself from the depression caused by SRGMP 2007. I am glad that I feel better now. I will recommend this formula to all brothers & sisters. Hope you will feel better just like me.Please watch the Promotional Video of “Mother of all cures” from the “depression” caused by SAREGAMAPA 2007’s directly/indirectly or any other programs around the world. Thank you.

If raja wins, that will happen only when public give baised decision.
