Saregamapa Challenge 2009 Grand Finale – Part I
ya
yashta ko jeetna chahiyay tha
aleeee llee!
Hope Vaishali’s ‘CONTRACT” is worth more than the flimsy piece of PC generated crap shown on the “grand Finale”.. speaks volumes about the seriousness of this Circus..
wah wah Adesh ji .. nayi Kompany kholi.. First contract supposedly worth 50 lakhs to Vaishali ??.. wah wah.
LMAO..
So this it – THE END
Congratulations to the winner – Vaishali.. wish you were in Shankar’s Gharana.. a low hand clap for da Him-purush.. Well done.. just don’t insult our intelligence by saying your Fans!! are responsible for this..lol !18 lac mobile wielding HR fans will be hard to find in 150/160/170 countries which supposedly see da saradrama show.
It was a year of highs of lows on the blog too.. AgentX, Senty,Rajdeep,Mehfil, Umer , Waseem, Harjeet,Anon, Chachi 840, Basit, Padma,Ms Analyst,Gaayika and others unnamed bloggers (who should forgive my short term memory loss!! )contributed immensely to our enrichment by their unique prose from time to time..
Thank you guys for the time spent exchanging views.
Everlasting effusive thanks to $hashi our administrator.. Thanks for providing vdos on the dot despite your hectic schedule & Anuradha for her brilliant written updates & for her forum which has become a cyber adda for me now .
Last but not the least I thank “Chottu” NYCOOLJ the irascible , irreverent life of the blog for the past 3-4 months.. .. wish you the best in Harvard .. Beware of blondes .. persistence pays plentifully.. a link for you – http://www.funnyhumor.com/jokes/358.php
Thanks people. – see you the next time round if I am still around..
I think Vaishali was not the one to deserve the winners title. I think Pratibha and Yashita have power and continuity. I think it has to do with Himesh because he only promoted her. At the first place he was telling how great person she was, what has that to do with her singing. And on other hand he was just telling in which state her husband was. It was so obvious. He just wanted to waken symppathy.
Dusari judges aisi thodi kartein the.
what a crap man!!!!!!!!! Vaishali winning….really upsetting, she is an old style singer……yashita was the best……sa re ga ma 2009 boooooooooooooooooo and himesh reshammiya booooooooooooooooooooo
Man! this sarega…. not Stupid Indian idol!
I think Yashita came in wrong show ! She must try in Ind..Idol She will definaly win
sab bakvaas hai. Vaishali was a pre-decided winner.. this was my comment even before she was decided.. they closed the discussion thread on seeing my comment.. The finale was another bakwas .. all songs were prerecorded and every one on stage were just acting to the playback songs. Akshay looked so stupid clapping to the fake show. Usne bolaa bhi .. “sab ko winner maalum hai toa voting kisliye chaahiye tha ” & that was the reality that came from his mouth & was not a joke for the moment. Vaishali ko winner nahi banaate to Thakhre Zee ki bajaa daaltaa.

You know what! I have been predicting same thing since that crap Himesh started screaming “is bar koi ladki hi winnerr banega”!
Even when that live update and discussion thread was open, I made this comment and said “no matter who gets how mnay votes, Vaishali is a predecided winner”, but unfortunately that discussions were closed, only the update survived!!
This is was such prescripted drama and a predecided show. Indians should sue ZEE Tv for wasting their mone in the name of SMS!
Still, I thank the Admin of this site for sharing those videos with us. You guys have done a great job.
Hey man, They closed the discussion site at in just 1 minute after I commented the the same words ” Saale Ullu banaate hain sabko … Vaishali is the predecided winner.. nahi to Thakhre Zee ki bajaa daalega.” and boom they closed the discussion thread. I wonder they are going to close this one too now. All stars sitting there looked like “Ullu loag “.
It is just a fake show .. Dont waste time watching it. At least you can watch some movie instead or go out for completing the pending list of your shopping.
Another bakwaas is coming in – “Dance Dance” . Hope u guys dont waste your time in that
Gumbo Bhaiya ! Yaar ap to Jyotishi ho! Reallly!
Hey James,
pied piper jaise iraade hain kya 
maiye jyotshi hoo na hoon farak nahi padtaa. Agar Vaishali politics mein jaayegi toa kya aap vote karoge kya ? yaar, political expectation hai toa wo gaana kyon gaa rahi hai
It is very interesting to see how HR’s fans act!!!
They use as cheap language as HR, their attitude is as rude and uncouth as HR!!!
That always brings a HUGE smile on my face!!! It makes me feel good that only certain kind of mass support a trash like Himesh Reshmmiya
Hahaha… Funny Joke
Viewer ! you are the big Joke!
Chalo, show khatam hua….Jisko jeetna tha who jeet gaya….
Deserving candidate won. Pratibha should ‘ve been 2nd. Soumen is 3rd which is right. Yashita should have been at best 4th.
Are you high on crack? Did you read the other posts on this blog? The general concensus is that Vaishali DIDN’T deserve to win. She only won because of that made-up sympathy story about her husband.
If you think Vaishali deserved to win this competition, you are well and truly retarded.
Hahahah stupid! Has raha hai lekin daat nahi hgas raha hai! dont spread bad smell here ok!
Dude get your vocabulary in order before you talk about smell. Vaishali manipulated her way to the top. The whole world can see that. Shame on her.
alle alle allle ulloo llo lloooo!
I think people like you are real white collor ghatis who don’t know how to speak!
aap logo ko shayad lag raha hai ki sa re ga ma Himesh ke baap ki hai!
I agreee!
Hello ! Himesh is not a contestant ok! why everyone talking abt Himesh only?
because james you don’t know that they are bloody stupid.
East or West Vaishali is the Best!
you are absolutely right.
you are absolutely wrong
Dr SPB,DR KJJ,Shankar Mahadevan
Actors-Padmani,Vijyantimala,Sridevi,Hema malini,Jaya Prada,Vanishree,Asin,Kamalahasan,Rajnikanth,etc
the list goes on…dont talk about what you know practically nothing off!HR has proven time and again that he is not sporting and doesnt belong on shows like these.In fact people like u and him should get ur own show.If fairplay was used,Debojit and Pratiba would have been in the finals.I am not from India.
lenny:
you have named all actors who had to pick up hindi to make a living in films.
these actors donot vote in reality shows . the common man in tamilnad, karnataka, kerala and andhra pradesh can neither understand hindi nor speak the language.
just recollect mehmmod’s evergreen song ‘hum kaale hain to kya hua dilwalen hain—’from film gumnaam.the lyric writer had to take help of a man from andhra pradesh to get the proper accent.
i have stayed in hyderabad for a couple of years and found most of the people speaking hyderabadi-hindi like mehmood .
almost every tv channel in southern states is airing a music reality show in regional language and those shows are quite popular. quite often a good talent from south has lost out in hindi reality shows on account of poor support from his or her state.
none of the chief ministers of 4 southern states can understand or speak good hindi.
even their english is not perfect.
god bless these cms.
AN EXCEPTION AGAIN WHICH PROVES THE RULE .
JAYLALITHA ex-cm of TN is one of the best orators . her english is perfect,fluent and has excellent command over the english language.probably the best english -speaking chief minister in the country.
You are 100% correct. I think Debojit should be champion, but I feel that HR kicked him out.and when Adesh, Pritam and HR had some argument HR made comment that winner ka din dakh langa, so he new that VAISHALI going to win. This was fix by HR. If HR is back next year I am not going to watch saragamapa.Z network should just pick one singer from his garana and give him or her singing contract.
saale tujhe dekhne ko bhi kon keh raha hai.and i think the popularity of the show is not going to be less if some foolish will not watch it we HR’s fans will watch and will make HR’s gharana win again.we are never going to be tired of voting him.’’sangeet ke iss maha yudh mein inshaallah har saal jeet himesh ki hi hogi”.samjha saale.
So you like HR very much, HR is not about talent he is just about wining. After I heard his comment with Adesh and Pritam I don’t even like to see him or listen to his music.
Other thing is before with his TOPI he look like he is not an man, now crying like girls he proved it. With his fake hair he does not look like man or girl so you just think……?????????……SAMJHA SAAAALEEEEE>>>>>>>>>>>.
just go and fuck off bloody.himesh is the best and he will rock this world.pritam is also not good looking at all saala mota no.1.aur woh saala manner less aadesh saale jhabre ke paas toh comb bhi nahi hai even then also if you like them so i would love to give you some suggestion that go and fuck off with them.
So that what you do with your HR, who get to be on top, you or him(her).Bhagwan app do no ko kush rakhha. mera ashirwad hai.
you are foucking bastard cocksucking not himesh what ever you have said to him is you.bloody fucker.just go and fuck your self with your dear pritam and aadesh.himesh is the best and he will keep on rocking.inshaallah.
i think you are the bloody fucker iloveyashita just go and fuck off with your yashita and just don’t make us more angry.
I think you need to learn your manners and maybe even try to understand the meaning of this competition before spreading your drivel.
bloody dumbo,stupid,fucker do you know anything about music.bloody fucker.just go to hell.
Do you? I don’t think so.
asma loves himesh and she will always love him because himesh is only the person in this world to whom every one should love.and i would love to that ”if loving himesh is wrong i don’t wanna be right”.east west himesh is the best.got my point bloody stupid.
wow look at these ass kissers. my my calm down, no need to have a heart attack over my comment lol. oh and by the way himesh is Cheap and all his low life supporters.
you are the bloody mother fucker,and the cheapest person of this world.just go to hell the fire of the hell is made just for people like you this world doesn’t needs you.blooy stupid.
If himesh was so genuin, he could have let ppl decide who deserves the best. Himesh was influencing ppl with Vishali’s personal life and beged for votes. It was like a political campaingn when he was asking Vishali to promise that she will give 1 hrs of her day to help ppl and so on… if this was a competition and winner was decied by jantha, himesh should have just give his comments on contestants singing talents and not on their personel life’s. Himesh is a cheap singer, director and an disgusting actor.
Aliya Dear, don’t worry!
Ain’t it funny how HR’s fans resembles his uncouth manner!!!!
Everytime I see HR fans are expressing themselves using abusive vulgar words(abusive as ususual) it makes me feel good that only certain kind of people like/or support a cheap manipulative dishonest person like Himesh!!!
This show’s final result was so FAKE and pre fixed that no one was overjoyed when the winner was announced. Even Himesh coud not act of being surprised or Happy.
ZEE chairperson totally ignored the winner and talked about some different issue.
Even Vaishali did not seem that happy(when you earn or win something!)
It was total flop show!!!
Hi Aliya, I had this following reply to you. Somehow it ended up in a wrong a place and usual got some nasty tpuch from Crappy HR’s fans!
“It is very interesting to see how HR’s fans act!!!
They use as cheap language as HR, their attitude is as rude and uncouth as HR!!!
That always brings a HUGE smile on my face!!! It makes me feel good that only certain kind of mass support a trash like Himesh Reshmmiya”
I wonder if certain HR fanatic is part of this site’s admin team!!! I really like this forum, hope it is not as manipulated as HR’s associates!
you are right.
wrong you are bloody fucker.wrong my foot.
yes i think you are awesome person in all.you are right all these bloodies are jeolouse of our himesh’s success.thanks man for supporting my HR.
plzzzzzzzzzz go and get some treatment from a fucker docter he will do operation of your asswhole brain.got my point i think you are a mother fucker.if you will say anything to himesh i will fuck you in your asswhole.i think vaishali is the best and i want to say thanks to the voters and me also because i voted more then 142 votes.
HEy guys…Don’t turn Gays by Fcuking eachother. One should think of Zee Fucking around with Politics. Why someone does not talk about Pratibha? Zee wants money and we pay for sms. All I know is… its Zee is Fucking around with numbers to attract attention….
i love you you are the great in all the bloody fuckers who think bad about HR and vaishali.because you are the first person to say good things about vaishali.thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooo muchg
Hey u mother fucker how dare u bloody bustard to say anything to my sister i will come and fuck you in your asswhole.i think you are bmf =bloody mother fucker.i will DX u.just go to hell this world doesn’t needs u.
no yashita does not deserve to be in this show only then what to say.
east or west himesh’s gharana is always going to win
saalo,chindi chore,tum loog jo bhi himesh ke bare main boll rahe hain uon logo ke tashreef main uon ka pishaab kaat ke daaldonga.
It’s amazing how all the savages have come out to play as soon as Vaishali won.
I guess all the persons with any class have left this website when Yashita lost.
Ram! Ram! Krishna! Krishna!
Kya hoe gaya iss website ko???? Can’t see any familiar names and those intellectual comments!!!Just saw a chotasa-nanhasa comment by DocKaul and that’s all I can recognize…!!!
Kaha gaye sab log..???
Guide me please!!
I agree with you 100%
hi devkishin vyas
devkishin vyas study hard eat well -have lots of fruits and salads and have a sound sleep . hope you enjoy today’s grand finale in mumbai.and i m not a littel girl but if u r abt40 to 50 then definately im a littel girl for u.i don,t felt bad abt ur comment coz i m a sweet girl9as u said0
dev meine mind anhi kya tu i hope ke app bi mind nahi karein ge.akhir app bi tu sweet hoonge na.just kidding. byeeee friend
barring little sweet teenager alisha the rest are indulging in exchanging abuses with fellow bloggers. and some young girls are also making fun of every one.
it is okay . no complaints against any one.
i reiterate that vaishali made was the ONLY PERFORMER WHO WAS A COMPLETE SINGER.she is being trained by a renowned classical vocalist ajay pohankar.
vaishali won because she was a trained singer and performed with dedication and perfect concentration . the rest were ‘also ran’performers.THE RATING IN FINAL:
vaishali:95/100
soummen :50/100
yashita :40/100
YASHITA IS ADVISED TO RECEIVE TRAINING FROM SOME GOOD USTAD AS WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE OF CLASSICAL SINGING YOU CAN NEVER BECOME A GOOD PLAYBACK SINGER.
You need to get your head checked. Vaishali is about as interesting as a door knob. Yashita was the choice of the world. I guess Vaishali sold out to Shiv Sena and Himesh. Shame on her.
to haniya & monty, plz watch your mouth..i’ve never seen such a foul mouth before…my God! is that ur family language? people can just assume ur standard by ur language.. its so bad…
dear sunila, i completely agree that yashita is fat…but u r sounding like vaishali is aishwarya rai! she even tried once to look good in western clothes, to imitate others…bichari…koyi faida nehi hua..
Because Himesh does not have any other work to do, He can not get any more work because of his ego.Now saragamapa is stuck with himesh. he is the Bollywood JUNK,,,,,,,,,,
I was going through India forums blog and came across this comment from a member who met Amanat Ali during November 2008…
And Amanat said that this time Zee has planned for a female winner!
I am not at all surprised. They follow whatever Star PLUS Voice Of India do now. Remember Chote Ustad winner was 1st female winner in these type of competitions. So Saregamapapa challenge 2009 had to get there with a female winner before VOI or Indian Idol beat them to it!
No matter where reality TV king Gajendra Singh goes, the competition always follows!
well said my friend
for me PRAtibha is winner
aasma-the golden girl from oman-some memmories she left behind:
himesh mera favourite hai–woh naak se gata hai aur main bhi naak se gata hai
mashaallah kya body hai-ye lo pakad -abhi khol-aur dekh andhar kya hai
mere film ka naam hai- mere oont ko danda kyun mara
mere picture ka director woh aadmi hai(satish kaushik)
sab heero nikal diya abhi tum meri film ka heero ban
kya height hai -muje tumara sab kuchh pasand hai
chap kar-main aaj host hun
——-you can go on and on and on-
the angel who left her memmorable quotes behin .god bless you -bubbly aasma.
I know you are NYCOOLJ
ALL HAIL THE END OF THE CRAPPY SEASON.
LETS HOPE NEXT SEASON IS BETTER.
LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING SENTY, DOC, MEHFIL ETC NEXT YEAR, SAME CRAPPY TIME SAME CRAPPY PLACE.
BUH BYE
But If he realy loved music he would go for talent for music not just wining,or not just one garana. so to me he is just peace crap. I never listen to his music or watch any os his movie. he is an garbage(rubish) of Bollywood.
Hi!
I didn’t get time to follow the last few episodes of this show but as soon as i got to know that VIshali was declared as the winner of this show..i was just STUNNED..Disappointed and also happy for a reason. Disappointed for the fact that why this show’s admin are following HR blindly..in start it was good to have him for promotion purposed but NOw he is adverslely affecting the show.
Happy for a reason that it was not only AMANAT last year who lost the crown because of this manipulative,full of fake ego crappy jerk HR. This time when he had no options left after loosing all singers he played smartly to give to vaishali. I dnt blame poor vaishali in all this game but AUDIENCE comm’on…i mean i am nt an indian..dnt live there..but still i can see whats happening and what elements are controlling the show.
I would 100% agree to the suggestion that NO RENOWNED person shd come as a JUDGE until HR is there.
HR is just a Hopeless piece of crap.
I totally second this comment.
After all these dirty games in 2007 and 2009 finals, No DIGNIFIED music director should come to judge this show as long as manipulative HR is there. Though they managed to bribe ADESH by giving his music company a break(they r gonna release VAISHALI’s album)!!!
I do not think SHANKAR or PRITAM will ever come back!!
i support the fact dat the result was manipulated.
coz they gave the stats of vote came from east, west,north and south. but where is central zone?
everyone knows that adesh srivastava belongs to dat zone.and the trend of voting from there should be in soumen’s favour.
in case of east. soumen is topper but vaishali second? not done. because yashita belongs to dhoom gharana and pritam is bengali so the exact voting trend was fom bengal.
soumen
yashita
vaishali.
last but not the least where is the exact number of votes from each zone?for each contestant?
the total system was fishy.
that bloody mother cock sucker hr.manipulated the result.
he is being supported by a gang of gays. in disguise of so called fans of himesh.he is the god all illiterate and mannerness and shameless peoples like he is.
hr sucks.split on his mouth. stupid beggar. go to hell himesh this world doesn’t want you. and don’t forget to take your “paltu kuttas” in your journey to hell.
i think you are the bloody begger.bhikhmanga tu hoga saalaey jahanum ki aag mein jal jal ke sadega kute se bhi buri moth meraga tu samjha.dubara se agar himesh ke baare mein kuch kehne ja raha ho na toh ye yaad kar lena.meri baddua tere saath hai.
Gosh! Why the hell is evryone angry with HR?? He is not the proprietor of ZeeSaregama? He is just an employee on contract!!!
If it was manipulation it’s all Zee…Himesh has nothing to do with it…You Fools!!!
Thank God! At least Vaishali is not being hated by everyone like Aneek!! Last time Aneek became a scapegoat in the whole scenerio where it was not at all his fault…!
I am happy that Vaishali won!!! A little bit sad that Pratibha couldn’t make it to the finale. I wanted to see all Female in this season’s finale!!!!
hi guys
rajdeep and dev where r u .actually i can,t fight anyon to argue with.so i m missing u guys.rajdeep app tu mere janmoon ke dushman hai na.tu phie is baar bi karva sa comment kar dejeye.bye
Hi Alisha, how are you?
Your fight(find) reminds me of one of friends who wrote a coverletter which starts with…
“Dear sir or madman”
Now I don’t have to attend every argument I’m invited to or do I?
Saregamapa is over and there is nothing to talk about unless you find a new topic.
alisha the innocent
khush rahe tu sada yeh dua hai meri—-
god bless you alisha
sorry guys find ki jaga fight likh diya.everyone makes mistakes so meine bi kar li
this time the show was huge FLOP!. Vishal Shekhar did not come again this show, only because it is cheap way to exploit the singers. They ROCK!! After Challenge ‘07, they said they would not repeat again if the show had cheap format. And, they were honest. they also gave song to Raja hasan, Himani Kapoor, and Amanat Ali. Vishal and Shekhar are the real mentor.
vishali b!tch
hi guys
iqbal brother i think u r forgetting something,this is a forum where u have to comment on singing not for abusing.who u like or who u don,t it,s ur personal choice soplz be i ur limits.
rajdeep i m completely agree with u now this show is over so we should chose another forum.what abt indian idol 4.i think that,s a great show and we should comment on their singing.and thanx deckishion vyas.ur littel friend.byeee
I haven’t and will not watch the finale of the ’sorry ga ma pa’ show because the results were fabricated.
Dev Kissing My’Ass is kissing ass again (i.e. trying to imitate me) – now he is an Asma admirer! I love to expose fakers like him. He’s in his 40s but is trying to lure the young Alisha with tall promises! This guy is a predator (as seen on the NBC show ‘To catch a Predator’). He knows I am 19/male but he’s still curious about my gender. Himself, he claims he is neutral!
If imitation is the highest form of flattery, I want no part of Dev’s ass-kissing flattery.
Soumen fans, you can stop voting now, because your Floridan votes didn’t count before and won’t count now!
It’ll be better next year because it can’t get any worse than this.
NY..what ever your name..You are stupidest guy in this blog…Its burning smell!….Don’t you know…dont write anything Here Again ok
@MusicLover … you are the smartest and it shows! Congratulations!!
Dpn’t worry pal!
Trashy HR’s fans are as erratic as him. So do not feel bad if you get hear dirty offensive words from them, it is not you.. but them.. so just ignore it.
Hi Alish You are the coolest among all…Keep it up

.*******************************************
WHEN Danny Boyle was conceiving the idea of Slumdog Millionaire, a girl, who as a child had worked as a farm hand in a non-descript village in Maharashtra’s farm suicide zone, was scripting a real life parallel to the reel life story. Her story was one which, if the British director were to know before, may well have inspired him to show his protagonist in the film as winner of a music contest instead of a quiz show.
Two days after Slumdog opened to rave reviews and full houses, Vaishali Bhaisne-Made, born and brought up in a marginal farmer’s hut in Khartalegaon village of Vidarbha’s Amravati district, won Zee TV’s international Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge contest. She won a Rs 50-lakh contract with the company, a brand new Hyundai i10 car — and a career in playback singing.
On Saturday, the girl from the backward Matang community edged past first runner-up Yashita Yashpal and second runner-up Shomen Nandi, polling 18.95 lakh SMS votes to win the contest that saw contestants participating from all over the world.
Vaishali had received a wild card entry along with Shomen, something which didn’t initially go well with her mentor Himesh Reshammiya; he had reservations about giving direct entry to regional Sa Re Ga Ma Pa winners. As luck would have it, Vaishali was chosen his disciple through a draw.
Her splendid show throughout the contest, however, convinced Reshammiya, as well as Shankar Mahadevan and Preetam, the two other mentors of the show, that the wild card was worth it and much more.
Even as Vaishali got imbued in the pomp and show of the final contest in the glamorous precincts of Gateway of India in Mumbai, her native Khartalegaon village and the tehsil town of Hinganghat in Wardha district, her in-laws’ place, burst into celebrations with crackers and drum beat.
At Khartalegaon, her mother Ratnaprabha Bhaisne, an Anganwadi helper, and younger brother Amar, were happy beyond words.
“As a young girl, she worked as a farm hand to buy harmonium and tabla. She always wanted to make it big in music,” Ratnaprabha told The Indian Express. “But I never had imagined that she would do it so well. She has really done our small village proud.” Father Kisanrao was away to Amravati with some work.
After completing HSC in a village school, Vaishali went to Amravati for graduation. It was here that she also took lessons from music teacher Kamal Bhonde. Later, she learnt light music from Nagpur’s Prabhakar Dhakde. That helped her to win the Marathi Sa Re Ga Ma Pa in January 2008.
At Amravati, she found a companion in Anant Made, with whom she started singing on stage. The two soon got married and shifted to Mumbai for Anant’s job. Here she got the chance to fulfill her dream.
She didn’t have the glamourous looks of her urban counterparts. Forget English, she wasn’t comfortable even with Hindi. She had also become a mother and had to carry her threemonth-old son to the sets. Odds, however, were no match for her dogged single-minded pursuit of the goal and her stupendous performance. In all this, Anant, who had lost his singing voice in a mishap, stood solidly behind her through thick and thin.
“Whatever I am today is because of him,” a jubilant Vaishali told The Indian Express. “I always had the ambition to become a playback singer, so I worked hard for it under adverse conditions. In the next five to ten years, I wish to be where many of the famous established playback singers are,” she added.
