But Gajendra isn't the least initimidated.<BR/><BR/>"I feel they on Sony have copied us. But their focus isn't on singing. It's on face value. I've been doing a musical talent scouting contest since 1994. I virtually grew with my channel Zee. You'd be shocked to know what kind of money I'm offered by rival channels to join them.

I don't know why you are always saying one of the most priviledged communities in India is the marginalised one. punjabis and gujratis have all the wealth in india. Commercially they are the wealthiest as they own all the businesses in india. they are def. a part of mainstream and doing well in diverse fields because of a variety of factors. Intellectually Bengalis and Marathis and even south indians are far ahead, but as they say <BR/>where the money is, there the power is.<BR/>If you belonged to north east, I could understand your complainst as they are definitely out of the mainstream and in struggling phase. But I find them also far better than us in many ways. their women are more employed, it is a more matriarchal society.

By the way among the female category I liked most:<BR/><BR/>1. Mitika<BR/>2. Anupama<BR/>3. Sara <BR/>4. Naina<BR/><BR/>And among the male category:<BR/><BR/>1. Shujat Ali Khan<BR/>2. Shashi Suman<BR/>3. Debojit<BR/>4. Arshad<BR/>5. Sunwinder<BR/>6. Fareed<BR/>7. Faraz Butt<BR/>8. Shayon (My personal ranking-lol)<BR/><BR/>These are the guys basically at whom I am looking now. Among these 12 definitely one will be winner (An easy prediction as I have almost put all the best ones in my ranking). <BR/><BR/>Dear All,<BR/><BR/>Prediction 1:<BR/><BR/>Last year among the 3 finalists 2 were from India and one from Pakistan and I predict this year the same thing will happen. Now the question is, on the basis of performances till now who will be in finale. <BR/><BR/>Prediction 2:<BR/><BR/>Contestant 1 - <BR/>Definitely one contestant must have to be from Himesh's Rock Gharana and it will be among Fareed Ahmed or Sunwinder Singh Sandhu. According to me the possibilities of Sunwinder is better than Fareed. Just don't know why but it seems to me. <BR/><BR/>Contestant 2 -<BR/>I hope it will be from Pritam's Dhoom Gharana and the main fight to reach in the finale will be among Shujat, Arshad & Debojit. Now this is very tough to predict who will be in finale among these three. Now there is a very big chance that two from this Gharana may reach to the finale. And if that then they will be Shujat & Debojit. Just sorry for Arshad.<BR/><BR/>Contestant: 3-<BR/><BR/>If the upper mentioned prediction gets wrong then without a doubt the 3rd contestant will be from Aadesh's Jai Ho Gharana and it will be Shashi. <BR/><BR/>I also think this year no female contestants will reach to the finale just like last year.<BR/><BR/>What do you think?Antarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03886002747422105413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579670233250050407.post-88257998873825892242008-08-05T22:14:00.000+06:002008-08-05T22:14:00.000+06:00@antarIs there any way where we can have info rega...@antar<BR/>Is there any way where we can have info regarding the 2009 contestants? as in information regading their age, interests etc. as in voice of india 2 contestants?<BR/>That would be appreciable.<BR/><BR/>Oh i forgot to mention naina and Ahamad and pratibha...i really like them as well. fareed needs to bring in more spark, and sujat needs to go beyond his family's lineage otherwise they are also good...:)Neelakshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07068084034510670606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579670233250050407.post-32559225443193249572008-08-05T21:16:00.000+06:002008-08-05T21:16:00.000+06:00Hemant Da,I didn't get any mail from you.
