@Ashraf

I am not sure about Poonam..one source said she is ill
"Ali reportedly had throat problems, while Yadav had to be hospitalized for a stomach ailment, one of the singers told India-West backstage."

She hasn't performed anywhere in USA..but today there is show in Toronto..so lets see whether she will perform or not..I have called London organiser and they say she is definitely comming to London..

@$hashi,

We have not heard or read anything further regarding the SRGMP World Tour. It would nice if you could kindly update us on the goings on, especially whether Poonam will be joing the Post-US leg of the Tour. All we get to read is the highly partisan views on Raja's website.

We have also not read anything authentic about Amanat's absence from the Tour. If Amanat and Poonam do not join the post-US leg of the Tour, it will be huge disappointment for their fans, and for themselves too, as they stand to lose a decent compensation along with International exposure.

Sometimes I get a feeling that being proteges of Ismail Darbar they have not been taken on the tour, as ID launched a tirade against Zee TV. Unless truth comes out in open, we are all left to speculate.

@ Khurram and Ashraf Hussain: Thank you so much for making us aware that an outrageous anoymous comments on the one few posts above are very likely by some one attempting to tarnish image of our dear Amanat. I feel bad that by answering that post I might have inadvertently dignified those hurtful comments. We all learn from such experiences. Thanks again for your wisdome and warning us to be careful.

Now on a different subject:

@Mousumi: I canot thank you enough for telling me about two clips on the NJ concert in YouTube. I found them and loved the experience. I haven't heard any thing about their schedule for New York. I hope we are not left out.

Have a nice weekend folks. Bye for now.

I too agree with Khurram that the news or rather allegations against Amanat seems to be totally frivilous and unfounded. The poster of that comment does even has any guts to identify himself/herself. Amanat has been a very beloved and popular contestant of Challenge 2007, and some baiter of his might have made these allegations to malign Amanat’s as well as his family’s name.

Unless and until these claims are substantiated no one in their right senses should give any credence to the above mentioned allegations against Amanat.

I would like to know the validity and source of the news that was posted a few post above. I don't believe its true and regarding this as a personal attack on Amanat, his family and their reputation, unless provided with some valid evidence.

Also, I am reluctant to accept this news due to that fact that an Anonymous user has posted it.

Regards,

Khurram.

Uttam:

Since you did not get to see the show as uet, if you go to You Tube.com and type in "saregama show in New Jersey" in Search, you will get to see Aneek, Raja, Harpreet, Sumedha, Mussarat perform.

You will get some idea about the show.

Hi Anonymous:

Thank you so much for sharing with us this behind the scene situation. Most of us have been concerned about Amanat's health but it seems that's probably not the issue.I am one among thousands of fans of SRGMP2007 and most of us don't really think about business aspect. This news is something which never occured to me. Many thanks to Safdar Hussain for all the efforts on his part to make the show a grand success both for participants as well as so many fans. Whoever has seen the NJ show is talking very highly about it as noticed from this site itself.Well,thanks again.

Dear Uttam i dont want to tell lie. Since u hv asked about Amanat. Then let me tell u the fact that its his father who is been greedy to sell Amanat at a higher rate to other promotor in future. His father does not understand the value given by Zee to Amanat on saregamapa music challenge 2007 stage. He also does not realize that Amanat wl be more valuable and popular after live performances with zee team. Promotors,zee,friends all tried to convince his father but one of his father’s promotor is all behind the scene. They even tried to stop Musarrat but thanks God he refused their idea.
Zee is still trying to convince Amanat’s father but I dont think he wl agree. His father is even trying to blackmail promotors tah he will sing instead of Amanat and wl charge higher rate plus wl give false reason that Amanat is sick.
Mr.Safdar Hussain has tried utmost thru all means but all in vain.
Its really scary that Amanat’s future wl be raelly bad if Zee files lawsuit against him for breaching the contract as he has signed two years contract after grand finales in India.
Lets hope for the good.

Mousumi:

Thank you very much for the quick response. I understand from one of the posts that Junaid arrived US only on 30th Nov afternoon. I guess he was driven striaght for the concert to NJ. That probably is the reason he looked a bit tired.

I haven't had a chance to see the performers live as yet. I certainly hope that they will perform in New York.

Thanks again.
