Indian Idol

We’ve been watching a few shows and its really good but some of the time I’m just shouting at the TV cos they almost let so many talented people go.
There was this 17 year old girl and she had an absolutely amazing voice and they were umming and ahing about her saying she was slightly out of tune etc. Do they expect them to be fully trained before they can get through. I dont remember the english or american version being so particular with things like that. If theres someone that shows potential they put them through but these guys were just unbelievably fussy.
Does any1 watch it?

Re: Indian Idol

Tabassum,
When did IA start and what days does it air?
And, are the judges the same?

Re: Indian Idol

Lol, very ORIGINAL show title.

Re: Indian Idol

honestly speaking, you know one of my friend had got chance to participate in the New Delhi audition, he specially travelled from Kolkatta to New Delhi in the late night coz the very next day in the early morning he had to reach there. I picked him from the airport nd dropped him at audition place in the morning but after few hours he calls me nd sayz ok i’m packed now moving back to Kolkatta directly from here, he was abusing anu malik like hell coz he had spent near about 9k INR just for one day on return tickets :rotfl:

Re: Indian Idol

not watching it that much - just every now and then.
Haris - in the US it comes on Friday and Saturday nights at 9 pm Eastern.

Judges are Anu Malik, Alisha Chinoy, Udit, and Javed Akhter.

Re: Indian Idol

waT happened to sonu and farah

Re: Indian Idol

Ive been watching on saturday and sunday on freeview I think on sony tv I cant remember. UK

Re: Indian Idol

I know Farah is busy w/ her movie so that's probably why she is out.

Sonu I guess declined - dunno.

Re: Indian Idol

Darn, I didn' even know it started already. Some of the people are so cute and innocent and anu malik's comments are mean but at the same time he speaks the truth so you gotta chuckle a bit:D

Re: Indian Idol

Does anybody know if they already showed the part about when they audition in kashmir? They only showed bits of it and I wasn't sure if that was all the time they spent there.

Re: Indian Idol

alisha chinai and udit sonu aur farah say ache hain...nahi?

Re: Indian Idol

we watched the tail end of last night’s show - man that girl who doesn’t want to sing w/ her assigned partner was hilarious!! I felt bad for the guy :smiley:
The Chinese guy is SO GOOD! His pronounciation is even :k:

Re: Indian Idol

I love Chang..he's the best in the show :D

Re: Indian Idol

ah somebody else notices the chang guy!
What a balanced voice!
I really hope he gets into the gala -

Re: Indian Idol

the "gothic" guy was hilarious, he had me on the floor.
so bad...

Re: Indian Idol

yeah if the voters are not racist, he has a chance of making it :)

Re: Indian Idol

but then,the show is "Indian Idol",not "Indo-Sino Idol" or "Chinese Idol" !!
yeah,there are many many chinese in India,who have lived in India for generations and have Indian passport,then too,i think he will not win the show. no dout he is a good singer,but nothing could be said for now..

Re: Indian Idol

Chang is the find of this year… I hope he goes very far and i think he will for his voice quality, the smile and being judges’ fav.

that little girl gave that semi chapta guy such a hard time… poor guy just got soo frustrated at the end.

Good going Idol :k:

Does anyone know if Javed Akhtar is gonna be in Galas too
