Did you sprinkle some pixie dust…there’s been a sudden dramatic change in the weather where I leave …Dark clouds 8)
It rain so heavily early in the morning over here …what have you done? Take it back …don’t wish me happy monsoon
Take it back
SAREGAMAPA IS A BEAUTIFUL SATGE. ALL THE MENTORS ARE GREAT, BUT THIS YEAR I MISS TOO MUCH MR.ISMAEL DARBAR SAHIB AND MR.VISHAL AND SHEKAR JEE A LOT. THERE WAS TOO MUCH FUN LAST YEAR, DIFFERENT THAN THIS YEAR.
@anon, mehfil, rajdeep
Great post mehfil !
I still rofl at AshaJi’s crack when she stopped one of the many “tonal quality” discussions right when it was at the hottest point, and said.. yeh log gol gol kuch baat karte hain, pata nahin kya..:-)
Music directors like Naushad saab used to compose music based on the time-of-day raaga of the song picturization. Itna dedication to we cant expect from the likes of the be-cap baadshah.
Pritam is cool coz but for him, we will be deprived of some great korean, arabic, portugese, yugoslavian, swedish etc music.
SMahadevan is the coolest coz he has genuinely given some great music lately. I still cant get over the gutiar work in “agar main kahoon” from Lakshya. I think Shankar is trained in music too. I hope he doesnt make a peanut out of himself during this show. Butting heads with the Be-cap Baadshah can cause severe brain injury.
AadeshS .. mm.. except for baghbaan I dont know which other songs he has composed. And BB had some decent numbers. So I have no opinion about him..
HimeshZee .. I like some of his compositions that are sung by other singers. The prob I have with Him as a singer is his silly forin accent that he injects in his annoying high nasal pitch.. its a sure shot way of getting on my nerve.
And the repeating the lines 3 times .. almost always.
How many aashiq banaya ?? 3 for one aapne !
Most of all, the musarrat sacrifice .. for “mera bachha”. That was a super cheap shot. Ab kya hua?? “Mera bachha” to dance kar raha hai “doosre TV show” mein.
Dockaul ji kahan hain? Yun aaye aur yun gaye !
anon

@ Senty Anon Mehfil & Vijay – Thx for the welcome.
@ Senty – Yahin hoon .. Waiting for a suitable topic to comment upon..
@ Mehfil – One word – WOW , Do keep on Talking (?) despite admonitions from the HR of this blog
Hi Mehfil
Thanks for your comments (Containing 627 Words). I would like to say one thing in URDU
“ Bohat Zayada Bolnay Walay Ki Bohat Kam Batain Yaad Rehti Hain” like Himesh Gee.
Hamaray ass pass bohat see achi buri cheezain hoti hain jin kay saath huamain har surat rehna he hota hai. Agar hum un main sirf buri cheezon ko point out karain gay or achi cheezon ko ignore karain gay tu hamaray hisay main buraiyan zayada ayein gi. Like wise SRGMP main bohat see khoobioon kay saath kuch khamiyan b hain.
App kay comments main app nay bohat say points ko criticize kia hai
1. Inclusion of paki singers for raising TRP
2. Zee (SRGMP) just for earning money
3. Incompetent Judges
4. What about fine-art of music SUR-TAAL-LAY etc
5. KALA v/s ROTI
In the light of your experience you threw light on above points but I ve some different opinion about above points may be I am wrong and you will disagree because apkay tajarbaat main meri umar be shamil hai. I beg your pardon in advance if my views hurt you.
1. Inclusion of paki singers for raising TRP
Hamaray Mulak Pakistan main “GANA BAJANA” kissi had tak acha nahi samjha jata. New talent is being spoiled I solute ZEE and Indan Nation for promoting Paki Talent all over the word. AMANAT, MUSARAT, JUNAID, FARAZ, ZAHEER, SARA, etc ko hum nay SRGMPA say hi jana hai. If SRGMP gaining TRP in this way than we should keep in mind that it’s playing role for bringing Indo – Pak people closer.
2. Zee (SRGMP) just for earning money
What other shows are doing? Agar app ZEE TV owner hotay tu app kaya kartay?
3. Incompetent Judges
I think they are supportive enough to the contestants. Sometimes they over exaggerate the matters after all they are paid for it.
4. What about fine-art of music SUR-TAAL-LAY etc
Though I like music but I had not any concept about SUR-TAAL-LAY etc. After watching SRGMP and reading genius comments I am gaining a lot about music.
6. KALA v/s ROTI
Yaar khali pait tu muhabat be nahi hoti. Agar kissi contestant ko sirf or sirf kala (SUR) say lagao ho tu wo gayaan kay liye kissi jungal main chala jaye SRGMP main participate na kareay. Its all about money yaar. Yehi kuch hemaiesh kehta hai but hum ghalat samjhtay hain. App kaya chahtay ho kay “Ghora Ghass say dosti kar lay”
Shaied main nay bohat uot patang bol thia. Waisay app kay comments parnay kay liye HAJMOLA ki bottle pass rakhna parti hai. Hope kay app next time mujh jaiesay bohat say beginners ki khatir MUSIC FRIENDLY comments pass karain gay.
App ka SHUB CHINTAK

Once Music lovers such as you have agreed with me on the Sonu /Rafi point, Duniya ki nahin padi.
@Mehfil.
Great Comment Dude. Last year while Pandit Jasraj was on the show with Jagit Singh. He had clearly said to Amanat. “Meri liye aap hi
number 1 ho”.

Abhijit is a dickhead for trying to promote Indian singers?
How many indian singers have been promoted in Pakistan so far?
He gets abused for scolding Mussarat? When he scolded Raja, Aneek and Amit nobody uttered a word! Why? Because they are indians?
Talk about hypocracy!
Rajdeep
I’m pretty agree with you but I personally believe that any person who has been given the responsibility to judge someone should not accept that responsibility if he or she are unable to do justice.
His image has already been spoiled and now the situation is even more worst after he first refused to judge Mussarat. In fact if I am more precise, as media is global and any proramme on any channel is being watched in every part of the world, so, Abhijeet infact is not only spoiling his own image but the image of INDIA too that is totally wrong. The good work done by other judges and mentors could be affected by his silly remarks and deeds, so I hope people should condemned him for ding that.
I am happy at least you again raised this issue.
thanks Umair
Thanks Fractal Image ,
Abhijit never mentioned publicly in the show that he do not want to promote pakistani singers. He told that backstage and its the media that published it intentionally to raise the TRP!
Everyone has his/her own principle/idology and we should respect that. So calling a person dickhead just because he wants to follow his principle is unwarranted!
@rajdeep
i dont give a rat’s ass what pakistan does,its not a secular country like india. what pakistan does or doesnt do is not my concern.
in MY country i dont want dickheads like abhijeet given free rein to bark hateful nonsense..
seriously though think about it, the world would be a poorer place if singers like mussarat were not in it, and if it takes india to bring out that talent so be it.. think like an effin world citizen for crissake, rather than being caught up with the narrow confines of religion and nationality..
am sure you have heard that story about the medhak in a kuuan ( well)
with best regards
anon
Well annon,
The reason India is considered as a “rat’s ass” is because of people like you.
That Gandhian policy of “if you slap my one cheek I will offer you the other” does not hold water anymore.
Yes, if we have singers like NFK, Gulam Ali I am with you. But who cares about singers like Mussarat, Atif Aslam and others? India has better singers in thousands!
Open up your eyes and see for yourself!
@ rajdeep
Bhaiya when did i say india is a rats behind? i just hate this hindu fascist ideology which abhijeet is a proponent of..
And yes gandhi ji is one of the most important indians ever, its the fundu brigade for whom his teachings dont hold importance anymore-and thats effin too bad
Looks like there is no point in having a discussion with you buddy, you have your ears and more importantly your heart closed off.
If all indians start thinking like this dickhead Abhijeet , we are in big trouble ..
My only solace is that people with this kind of warped ideology are in a minority , thank the lord..
Meanwhile mussarat ki jai ho, har har mussarat, jai mussarat di lets RAWK!
cheers
anon
PS- Atif aslam aint that bad, i have heard lot more besura singers than him, his voice suits the kind of songs he sings no?
Organizers of Saregamapa Challenge2009:
Don’t you screen the ability of Judges before they are made to sit on this platform?Who is Himesh?This Guy is total nonsense.He yells as if there no other opportunity for him to do so.Out of all the Judges this Guy thinks he is the best but should realise he is really a pain in the…He should be thrown out of this show or told to be Shut up.Let other Judges be given the chances to express their comments.

@ Fayyaz Ghafoor
I usually do not respond to OUT OF CONTEXT comments, but I Think I should try just more time to send the message across.
You are perhaps forgetting that India and Pakistan were once some 60 years back, there are atleast 2 generations of indian migrants to pakistan , still alive and still holding on to the traditions, one of which is that women folks are kept away from the lime light, needless to say that not only in pakistan, there are still a multitude of female singers/instrumentalists who are kept away from the buzz because of honor. One glaring example is the Daughter of alluddin khan sahab, Sukanya Shankar, wife of Pt. Ravi Shankar, never performed in public although it is beleived that she is way better than Ravi shankar,( they Both Learned from Ustad Allauddin Khan sahab) also she is the GURU of the worlds greatest flute player, Pt. Hari parasad chaurasia. Yes she is a house wife and to the best of my knowledge runs a music school in delhi. Also even before there was a program called SRGMP , there was a music contest on PTV, if I’m not mistaken Shazia Manzoor was the winner of that show. I can name a few more shows where kids learned the basics of music , sohail rana was the host and the kids who graduated included Nazia hasan and Afshan Ahmed and zohaib Hasan. Other than that, the msuical tradition in Pakistan goes side by side with India, while the gharanas are almost at the end in India, since India has classified them in a broader range of karnataka style, utter pradesh style, madrasi, rajhistani etc, in Pakistan they are still sticking to the tradition, to name a few, sham chaurasi gharana, Patiala gharana and Rajhistani Gharana, Mehdi hasan belongs to both Rajhistani and Patiala gharana. Amanat’s whole family from both sides is an illustrious music family, asad amant ali, hamid ali, shafqat amant ali, are all well known figures, without the help of ZEE and other programs, Thats exactly was my point was, The MUSIC of the soul will not stop, although there maybe more machine corrected singers in the future. TALENT needs no bounds, urdu mein kehte hain ki ” Khushboo ki koi sarhad nahin hoti”. and surely when Mussarat sings, it engulfs the entire subcontinent. Sure music is bringing India and Pakistan closer, but look at this, I am sorry I have to say that, do you even have a film industry in pakistan where you can accommodate so much talent ? except for churning out some punjabi , a fewer pushtu and and even fewer sindhi movies, there is no future for urdu/ Hindi songs in pakistan ( Oh well time changes, may be someday ! ), but on the other hand, there always was, and there always will be future for ghazal singing, classical and semi classical music in both of our great countries. I can go as far as to say that Ghazal singing in Pakistan has an edge compared to India, (Jagjit sing, has brought it at par ) Instead of saluting ZEE, Id rather salute those small pockets of traditional tutelage, from where comes some great talent, shafqat, amanat, shujaat are a few examples.the out come of the result of SRGMP doesnt really matter, for if it was not SRGMP, amant was already singing in Pakistan in a band called mekkal hasan. I guess that jitna bura gana bajana ko tumharay yahan samjha jata “THA”, utna hi India mein bhi samjha jata “THA”, traditional indian family only allowed females to sing Bhajans only, and I’m sure in the north, it is still considered BAD to join the film Industry. BUT, The entire psychology of the subcontinent is changing, the question Why when we share the same sky, the same earth and the same language ( sara raza khan ), we are not ONE, is something that we should look forward to, it may have offended a few in Pakistan and a few in India, but Like I said, a Few will always be against the GOOD, that FEW dont make a difference, but the innocence of One paki girl Surely CAN make a difference, because she is speaking from her heart and is beyond all racism. I look forward to that change, if Germany can Unite again, so can India and pakistan, it takes a FEW GOOD ONES like yourself, I sincerely dream of the day when ustad Fateh Ali khan will sings Malcouns with Pt. Jasraj in Jugalbandi.

2. Zee is a COMMERCIAL ORGANIZATION.
If I were the OWNER of zee, I would definitely change the panel of judges and bring in REAL MUSIC MAESTROS, in fact if you have seen the early SREGAMA shows hosted by Sonu Nigam, the judges were always the MAESTROS.
Also the commercialization of Music is going to produce some third grade lyrics, even crude music, and a repetition of one liners, listen to any songs of Himesh and you will know what I mean.
I think I wil skip the other questions for now.
I’m sorry but you might have to keep 2 bottles of Hajmola with you, if you intend to read this, record bhi tou durust rakhna padta hai na !
Mehfil
@ Fayyaz Ghafoor
BTW, tere are 882 words in the above post !
@annon,
I was right. People like you put words into others’ mouth just to make your point.
You said ” just hate this hindu fascist ideology which abhijeet is a proponent of..”
If you have cared to read the interview you would have noticed that Abhijit praised Raja 3 times!
In an earlier interview also (srgmp lil champs 06) he said that ows everything to a muslim friend of his.
But you call him a hindu fascist!
You have every right to be a fan of Mussarat,as I have the right to consider him a mediocore singer, but don’t dare to insult the hindus for that
Mehfil,
Good point. Just one observation though…
You mentioned “Daughter of alluddin khan sahab, Sukanya Shankar”… actually her name is Annapurna Devi and she did play publicly in West Bengal before her divorce with Pt. Ravi Shankar
@ rajdeep
i dont care if abhijeet is trying to camouflage his islamophobia by paying lip service to Raja hasan, the muslims in india dont need his condescending stamp of approval .
i dont insult hindus, i insult hindu fundamentalists, in the same way as i insult muslim fundamentalists.. all fundamentalists are the same – whether they belong to one religion or the other..
indians are very tolerant by nature and its scum like abhijeet who gives us a bad name..
bottomline dear rajdeep is-if u support abhijeet then u r opposed to having pakistanis in this show, if so i have nothing further to discuss with you, all channels of communication should henceforth be considered disconnected..
@ mehfil
wah wah kya baat kahee hai, now only if log padhe aur apne bheje mein daale to baat hogi.. will get back later
Hmm.. Interesting… guess its my turn now.
let me add a shiny copper penny ..
Disclaimer : I’m jus a poor ol sol trying to make peace here.. dont yell at me if you dont like it. I am rambling in a hurry coz I gotta go n cook for the clan …
I view it this way… for many of us, music is an art. Ek kala hai.. for others music is business. Matlab, not in a bad way, but you know.. koi koi khaali pet mohabbat nahin kar sakta.. to koi koi mohabbat mein bhuko bhi mar sakta hai.. dono apne apne jagah pe sahi hain. Its the level of interest, involvment, commitment, respect even, one has towards the music one listens to, or creates.
I cant look at a singer and go..ok, he is from Bogota, she is from Nigeria and then decide how I want to go about liking or disliking the song. But many folks I personally know, do that. They like a song until they come to know it is sung by so and so..and then “o jeez .. you wont catch me listing to that song again !”
I brought up Naushad saab in an earlier post. We have heard this a gzillion times before .. ki 3 musalmaan log, Naushad, Rafi and Sahir created the ever popular bhajan “Man darpat hari darshan ko aaj” from Baiju Bawra. It captures the essense of what I am trying to say. When they created the bhajan, they created a piece of art. Something any true music lover of India can refer to and feel proud to be an Indian.
But these examples are very rare and very precious.
Abhijit is right in sticking to his principles (or not) .. coz he has a pet (I mean stomach) to feed. And a pocket to fill. I am not saying it in a bad way. He has every right to take care of his interests. Insecurity may be a factor in his reaction to Pak singers. Whatever. We have to respect his feelings. But, having said that, he need not have gone public with his thoughts. He did tell Musarrat direct to his face on the show, ki – I wont judge you, you may take marks from Ahmed. It was hecka embarrasing to watch that.
My only big complaint about this whole episode is that Abhijit has created a situation that will forever put Indian judgement of a pak singer in such reality shows under a cloud. Ab dekhna har baat pe humgama hoga. Zee ka hi nahin, iss blog ka TRP bhi badhega.
I said ki “Abhijit is right in sticking to his principles (or not)” coz he did compromise on his principles when he retained his judge job. Get me? He needs the job… To hell with principles.
See, heres where I am disappointed with Abhijit. I would have respected him more had he jus quit.
I like musarrat coz he sings with hecka lot of feeling. If you notice, he has a glazed look on his face when he sings. Ek dumm feel se gaata hai. Its a treat to watch him. I do agree that many times lo notes hil jaate hain usske. But usske “joner” ke gaane mein .. he is THE mega mind blower.
@Mehfil
Great post dude!
P.S : Mere post ke liye haajmola nahin, ek bottle goli-soda kaafi hai…nimbu maarke.
@annon,
Again putting words in others mouths…
“then u r opposed to having pakistanis in this show, ”
I already said that if singers are like NFK and Gulam Ali I support them whole heartedly, but I don’t support bringing in mediocore singers when we have so much talent in India who are waiting for a break!
Read before you comment!
Dear Mehfil

I thought kay app bohat ghussa hoon gay after reading my comment but thanx to guide me. but sir after reading your harsh comments (Realstic) comments sometimes i think that me should stop watching SRGMP or stop reading your comments. mujhay laghta hai na tu main SRGMP quit kar sakta hoon na your comments.

@ALL
This is what Himesh/Zee will say to all of us.
“You all are living in a dream world”. You want excellent talent, quality singers. This used to happen in th 90′s when it was SaReGaMa. It was a different Program SaReGaMa.
The present show is SaReGaMaPa.
SaReGaMaPa – Pa – for paid for, Pa for Paisa, Pa for Partiality. Our title claims what the show is about.
Hence please stop blaming us, just watch the show & vote. Leave the rest to us.
