Aneek Dhar rocks his way to SA RE GA MA PA 2007 CHAMP!!

Finally we have a winner in ANEEK DHAR, which everyone will be happy with. Aneek Dhar won the SA RE GA MA PA 2007 challenge. I have been watching Indian IDOL and SA RE GA MA PA for last couple of years. I have not seen a singer like ANEEK. He is just beyond words. He is just outstanding. Indians all over the world will be hearing about ANEEK for years to come.

Here's Aneek singing Rock N Roll Soniye:

Prashant Tamang of Darjeeling, India wins INDIAN IDOL 3

Congratulations to Prashant Tamang and Darjeeling, India! Prashant Tamang wins Indian IDOL 3.

Indian IDOL 3 vs Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2007

I have been following both Indian IDOL 3 and SA RE GA MA PA 2007 very closely. In fact I have mapped out the contestants for both Indian IDOL 3 and SA RE GA MA PA 2007.

After watching last night's performance on Indian IDOL 3, I think the quality of singers in SA RE GA MA PA 2007 is much more superior.

It was the finals last night on Indian IDOL 3. One just cannot afford to make any mistakes. Both Prashant and Amit blew it last night. Prashant's mistake was however not that obvious. He recovered quickly and carried on. However everyone's favorite Amit Paul seemed completely lost after he missed a line. The look on his face along with a stunned look on Bipasha Basu's face said it all. Even the judges (who I felt were rooting for Amit Paul) had a shocked look on their face after Amit Paul's performance.

My pick for this year's Indian IDOL 3 is Prashant Tamang. What do you think?

On SA RE GA MA PA 2007 keep a eye on Aneek Dhar. He is my pick to be the winner. He is just outstanding. When Aneek Dhar sings he sounds better than the original version. Listen to this song "APNE TO APNE HOTE HAI".

Indian IDOL 3 Finals - Darjeeling vs Shillong

Prashant Tamang of Darjeeling, India will face off Amit Paul of Shillong, India in the finals of Indian IDOL 3.

With the voting pattern of last couple of weeks the results of last night were predictable (Emon Chatterjee was voted out after last night's flawless performance. No worries Emon! you will go places and make your millions and who knows sometime in the near future Javed Saheb might even pen a song for you).

Meiyang Chang's Journey ends on Indian IDOL 3

Meiyang Chang an extremely talented singer/performer and also a dentist was voted out today (8/25/2007) from Indian IDOL 3. His performance last night was outstanding and all the judges had great feedback but the public did not agree with the judges.

Bye! Mr. Mingu Chingu. Good Luck and Best Wishes....

Deepali voted out of Indian Idol 3

Indian IDOL 3 voting is completely screwed up now!. Indian Public has now voted out an extremely talented singer/performer - Deepali.

What could be the reason? She was far better than the remaining idol contestants. It must have to do with floods (one of the most severe!!) in her home state of Bihar, or may be something else!

Here's Deepali for you. She will be missed!!

Prashant Tamang from Darjeeling, India gives an outstanding performance in Indian IDOL 3

Prashant was just outstanding when singing "Aao yaaron, mere sang sang bolo...." from Mission Kashmir.

Parleen Gill gets voted out of Indian IDOL 3

Parleen Gill an extremely talented singer gets voted out of Indian IDOL 3. So far the public is in the mood of voting out the best. If this pattern of voting continues....wonder how long Indian IDOL will survive. Last week Charu Semwal another talented singer was voted out.

Indian IDOL 3 - Richa Aneja gets voted out

Richa Aneja - 16 year old sensation from Amritsar, India gets voted out. Last couple of weeks have been rough for her. Even though her singing was great, its the judges except Alisha Chinai who were relentless in their criticism. Their complaint was that her voice is very immature. There's nothing she can do about it though, its what it is.

Good Luck Richa! You have tremedous talent. We will see you soon again.

Here's Richa's performance from last night:

Indian Idol 3 series has started. One person's dream will come true and millions of others will see there dreams shattered. I saw the 1st episode yesterday. There is unbelievable talent out there in India. Anu Malik one of the judges is the Indian Idol equivalent of Simon Cowell. Anu Malik can be nasty at times.
