Did any one observe:
pritam :was trying to flatter and flattened by his own comment”upar note se sur thora se halka” immediately salman replied”did anybody hear that? -NO ” ACTUALLY THIS PRITAM IS A CONARTIST.HIS BEHAVIOR IS BASICALLY A FACADE OF PRETENSION.HE DOESN’T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT MUSIC EXCEPT STELALING AND FLATTERING. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pritam
Born in Kolkata, Pritam is the son of Prabodh Chakraborty, who runs a music school for children. Pritam gained his early training in music from his father, and learned to play the guitar while still in school. Off late he has gained notoriety for the fact that almost all of his compositions till date are blatently plagiarised from lesser known Middle Eastern / Asian / Western artists.
alzazera has a criminal court of contempt but i don’t know those cases, how to get them. i hate this guy!! he looks like a terrorist and criminal.just look at any artist or Music directors ,always a pure and serene appearence.you always see him hiding his face behind a tinted large frame glass like a crook & ugly.voym’s mimicry was correct:he was touching those kids “is me kucth hai “- kia hai” i am really suspecious about his intention of giving plaback for ANWESHA & aiswyaria.
” Mere jabalpurwalo abhaas, agar yeh cummey jiada din rahye to fir agla janm mey, jarur aap ko kutta hokey janam leney parega” TOO low level of ASS LICKING.
AISHWARYA!
What can i say! You were BRILLIANT, OUTSTANDING ,WAY AHEAD OF ALL OTHERS! You made us so Proud!Keep it up Darling, you have a Long and BRIGHT Future ahead. God Bless YOU.
YOU WERE JUST TERRIFIC. IT IS BEYOND ONE’S BELIEF THAT A 14 YEAR OLD CAN SING LIKE YOU DO. EVERYTIME I SEAT TO WATCH VOI CHHOTE USTAAD, I DECIDE NOT TO GET IN TO SPELL THAT YOU CREATE IN ABOUT 2 ~ 3 MINUTES TIME SLOT GIVEN TO YOU FOR SINGING. EVERYTIME I GET IN TO YOUR SPELL AND GET OUT OF IT ONLY WHEN I HEAR NOISE OF AUDIENCE CHEARING YOU UP.
FOR ANY PERSON HAVING EVEN SLIGHTEST UNDERSTANDING OF MUSIC IT WILL BE CRIMINAL OFFENCE TO COMPARE AISHWARYA WITH ANY OTHER CONTESTANT OF CHHOTE USTAAD. IF SHE IS GIVEN 95 OUT OF 100 MARKS, HER NEAREST CONTESTANT WOULD GET NOTHING BEYOND 75. THIS GIRL AISHWARYA SINGS AT COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LEVEL. WE INDIANS NEED TO BE PROUD OF HAVING SUCH SINGER WITHIN US.
@ Mansi Saraswat
Please do not Exaggerate about Aish by over stating that no one is near to Aishwarya,and if she gets 95 out of 100 other contenstants should get nothing beyond 75
To remind you Anewesha is on par or much better technically then Aishwariya and she has proven tht time and again by consistent performances
So if you are real music lover appreciate the correct talent rather then giving such statements
all three judges gave her sartaj sarvottams……
i thnk she sang it very well….but still she doesn’t sing the song as the original song…she cuts the original harkats and puts her own harkats…..wch i thnk is not a gud thing at a learning level…..in others words she makes the song comfortable for herself…
I am really proud that I am a supporter and fan of Aishwarya from the beginning. I earlier felt that Aish was not as technically good as Anwesha but today I’m happy to eat my words. What an improvement.
Aishwarya has shown that she’s not lacking in any aspect of music. Today I’m left speechless and breathless. Aishwarya is at least as good as Anwesha technically and better in other aspects.
Though overall Aishwarya is slightly better than Anwesha, still I feel that both of them should jointly be declared joint winners of Chote Ustaad title. I predict that it’s going to happen that way. To leave out one of them will be total injustice.
SALMAN KHAN’S PRESENCE ENLIVENED THE ENVIRONMENTS. THIS TOP ACTOR IS REGULAR AT GAJENDRA’S MUSIC SHOWS AS HE HIMSELF IS FOND OF MUSIC AND POSSESSES EAR FOR A MELODY.
SALMAN KHAN AND HIS BIG JOINT FAMILY IS A SHINING EXAMPLE OF NATIONAL INTEGRATION.THIS FAMILY HAS WELCOMED AND ACCEPTED GIRLS FROM OTHER RELIGIONS AND COMMUNITIES AND HAVE SELECTED NON-MUSLIM GROOMS FOR THEIR DAUGHTERS .ALL THE FAMILIES HAVE BLENDED BEAUTIFULLY AND IF THERE IS ANY AWARD FOR NATIONAL INTEGRATION THERE CAN NOT BE A BETTER CONTENDER THAN SALIMBHAI’S FAMILY WHO HAVE SET AN AMAZING EXAMPLE FOR THIS NATION WHICH SOME INDIVIDUALS ARE BENT UPON DIVIDING FOR THEIR PERSONAL GAINS.
ALL PERFORMERS WERE INSPIRED BY SALMAN’S PRESENCE AND SANG WITH GREAT FEELING AND EMOTION.SHREYA KUNAL AND ABHAAS’S SONGS WERE A BONUS FOR MUSIC LOVERS. GREAT EPISODE .MAY THE BEST THREE GET THE PUBLIC SUPPORT .
THE NEXT EPISODE WILL TAKE PLACE IN CITY OF BHOPAL .
Aishwaria sang very well but she has a problem as far breathing is concerned. She seemed out of breath for most her song. She needs to work on how to control her breathing.I am surprised that none of the judges pointed that out! Anwesha on the otherhand, I thought, was almost perfect.
Both Aishwarya and Anwesha were great. Aishwarya had some amazing songs to sing, ‘Albela’ is one of my favourite songs from HDDCS. And while I support Anwesha fully, I have to give credit where credit is due and Aishwarya was truly terrfic. I think better song choices for Anwesha, would make her performances even more fantastic than they already are. I recently heard from India Forums that Anwesha has been very sick, so I don’t know how she will perform this coming week, though I’ll still support her. Poor girl, she’s getting mixed messages. The judges are telling her she’s good, but the public, by not voting for her, are telling her she’s not. I really hope she isn’t making herself sick by worrying about lack of votes.
At least we have a competition on our hands now. Wow, Aishwarya was fantastic. I was completely lost in her last performance. Superb Aish! She has improved so much. You know, in the beginning of this show, I thought both Aishwarya and Anwesha were equally fantastic and were on a level playing feild, few performances afterwards, I started thinking that Anwesha was slightly better, but now I may have to rethink (though I still support both). A great way to decide which is better between the two would be to have them sing the same song individually, not together like they have in the past.
Many manipulations ,poltics and dirty businness from education to every FIELD in indian system.this Musical competition is no different.eg.few doctors who had no degree, did kidney transplants over 500 people in DELHI (Amit Kumar,http://www.ibnlive.com/news/how-the-kidney-kingpin-was-arrested/58422-3.html)
there are 3000 doctors in delhi alone have no degree are QUACKS> IMC,INDIAN MEDICAL COUNCIL HAS NO CLUE ,NEVER PERFORMS ITS DUTY,COMPLETE APATHY(director of IMC wrote to my email: MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS IN USA. WE DON’T WANT NRI DOCTORS TO INTERFARE IN OUR INTERNAL MATTER.IRONICALLY THE SAME PERSON WROTE 2YRS AGO: PLEASE TRY HARD THAT WE BECOME RECOGNISED TO BMC,British medical council and AMC american medical council AGAIN.
UNTIL OUR SOCIAL LEVEL OF AWARENESS COME UP THE CORRUPT WAYS CAN NEVER BE COMBATED IN INDIA.EVEN FROM A DISTANCE WE DO PARTICIPATE IN EVRY WELFARE OF INDIA AND INDIAN PEOPLE.
These kids are not my kids but i feel they are mine> they all are talented, if parents simply nurture them and DO NOT PUSH THEM TO GET SOME CHEAP RECOGNITION OR SUBJECT THEM TO PSYCHOLOGIAL PRESSURE AT SUCH A TENDER AGE,IS MY REQUEST.
MY HEART BLEEDS> I COULD NEVER SEE MY CHILD PUBLICLY HUMILATED. ALL MY CHILDREN HAVE GROWN UP TO SUCCESSFUL CAREERs(2 in medicine,1 on the way to law) but i have never forced them but nurtured them with love.
I REQUESTED SPECIAL PERSONS IN MUSIC DEPT. IN UC DAVIS AND UC BERKELY : TO GIVE THEIR VALUABLE OPINION :THOUGH THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND THE LANGUAGE: OPINION:: “THE ANWESHA & AISWARIA HAVE NO DIFFERENCE IN QULAITY OF VOICE, SIMPLY DIFFERNCE IS THEIR OWN VOICE WHICH IS, NO SINGLE VOICE IS THE SAME IN THE WORLD. MANY SINGERS IN WORLD MUSIC, SING IN THEIR OWN NATIVE LANGUAGE AND SOUND ETHEREAL BUT IF THEY ARE TO SING IN ENGLISH,THEY WILL FAIL MISERABLY”
Devdas was directed By Bimal Roy in 1955 IN HINDI.(DILIP KUMAR : SUCHITRA SEN)
Devdas was directed by Mr.Bansali in 2002.IN HINDI (AISWYARIA : SHARUL KHAN)
Sarat chandra chattapadya(well known Bengali writer) wrote this 1917.
it has been CREATED in punjabi,gujrathi,marathi,tamil and other foreign languages.

is it the same of pramthesh Barua as dev das??? NOT AT ALL. WE HAVE NO CHOICE** http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devdas
WITH DUE RESPECT TO INDIANS, THOSE WHO DONOT KNOW BENGALI LITERATURE ,PLEASE DON’T KILL SARAT CHANDRA AND RABINDRA NATH TAGORE YET.PLEASE DON’T MAKE HINDI RABINDRA SANGEET.NO OFENCE PLEASE.
With all due respect, I couldn’t make out what Dr.Biswas was implying. All I can state without fear of contradiction is Dr.Biswas is not happy about SOMETHING. It’s all way over my head (I am not very short, about average height). All this talk about Gujarathi tongue Bengali song Hindi film sends my head spinning in an anticlockwise direction.
All I know about this performance is that Aishwarya’s singing was heavenly and Aish is divinely inspired and blessed.
All my heart tells me is that I love this little angel Aishwarya. With all my heart.
(Dr.Biswas, the first part above is written lightheartedly, not to be taken seriously)
Aishwarya is brilliant! ‘Albela Sajan’ performance is simply mindblowing….
Unfair about Prakruti… She has given better performance than last time… I think Judges are deliberately criticizing Prakruti. At least they ( Judges ) should not do all that kind of politics with kids… All kids are too young for that …. What I believe is Prakruti will be become Chote ustad .. Same as happened with VOI earlier as Judges passed “Negative comments” about Ishmeet, and then
Ishmeet got sympathy votes and made him popular to win the VOI title… As Prakruti is from East side and ( as per the reputation of Reality Shows for Singers like in Saregamapa last 2 winners were from East, Last Indian Idol is from East …) i.e. as per voting trade, these type programs are more appreciated/huge support from East side. And such programs profitability depends on number of votes they get.
It’s not bad that who supports whom.. as winner is
selected from Voting. But I personally feel bad, when
Judges critisize that Indians do not understand music.
As judges forget that they are at that place because of
we love there work. If we really hate the music , then
they will be nowhere….
Abhaas joshi has a very good voice and sings beautifully; what lacks in him is an unfortunate, ugly face but he makes it more ugly by his low self-esteem “kissing ASS” mentality .if he would have retained his NORMAL persona wih dignity he would have earned more respect but unfortunately he lacks that persona,so he never can express that dignity.pritam,Kunal Gunjwala ARE the same ;very mediocre and overeact. this is called compensatory phenomena. small body men like big women,ugly men want beautiful face even dumb women,short men wears a oversize jackets.(INTELLIGENCE WHISPERS,IGNORANCE SHOUTS)>Hemanta Mukherjee whenever used to come to CALCUTTA MEDICAL COLLEGE REUNION>A TALL DIGNIFIED LOOK,A MAN OF FEW WORDS : HE EMBODIED RABINDRA SANGEET WITH HIS PERSONA :Hindi songs never matched his persona.Mannadey on the otherhand was very different with his flamboyance. http://starvoi.com/2008/03/09/chote-ustad-videos-7th-march-episode/4/
JUST SEE HER REACTION IN EMBARASSMENT WITH PRITAM’S REMARK “KATUCHA & KARGOSH” > IT WILL BE DIFFICULT FOR A NONBENGALI TO UNDERSTAND OUR CULTURE BECAUSE OUR BENGALI CHILDREN IN MIDDLECLASS CULTURES UNDERSTAND THE EYE LANGUAGE ,DOESN’T NEED ANY BODY LANGUAGE. IT’S THAT FINELY TUNED(with due respect to all indians).
ANWESHA IS SHY AND INTROVERT BUT VERY DIGNIFIED ,SO IS HER MOTHER.SHE APPEARS TO BE LESS CONFIDENT BECAUSE OF HER DARK COMPLEXION(ALL INDIAN HAVE THAT COMPLEX BEING UNDER BRITISH FOR 200YRS): AISWYARIA IS EXTROVERT & SELFCONFIDENT ,HAS FATHER’S RESERVE. HER MOTHER LACKS THAT PERSONA; WHENEVER SHE SPEAKS, IT SHOWS IT.others are out of cognizant>ordinary.
Anwesha is outstanding and simply the best. Her tonal quality, technical details, transition of notes & voice modulation are just brilliant. God bless you Anwesha!
HINDI FILM INDUSTRY IS FOR COMMERCIAL PERPOSE MR.KVN..8,THE SAME IS HINDI MUSIC INDUSTRY,IT IS SUBSERVIENT AND SURVIVES ON FILM INDUSTRY.IT DOES NOT CREATE WORLD CLASS QUALITY EXCEPT QUANTITY.SO IS INDIAN AUDIENCE THAT LISTENS AND WOWS :THESE ARE NOT MEASURE OF MERIT.THAT ‘S WHAT I SAID FROM THE TOP TO BOTTOM OF MY REVIEWS HERE .IF A COUNTRY HAS 500MILLION BELOW POVERTY LINE AND I GAVE ABOVE THE 3000DOCTORS ARE QUACKS IN A CITY LIKE DELHI> DOES IT SAY ABOUT MERIT.90% PRIVATE MED SCHOOLS IN SOUTH DO NOT NEED ANY MERIT .IT NEEDS RUPEES 3LACKS DONATIONS TO BE ADMITTED. IF YOU NEED TO READ MY REVIEWS YOU NEED TO READ ALL TO UNDERSTAND>AISWYARIA = ANWESHA IN EVERY WAY.GUJRATHI OR BENGALI IS NEVER MY FOCUS .IT’S MERIT, SIR.IS IT CLEAR? NO MUMBO OR JUMBO PLEASE.
Hello,
Does anyone know if we can download any of this programs. I am an Anvesha fan and would like to keep all her performances in my collection. If you have any information kindly let me know. Go Anwesha !!!!
Sanjay
Thanks for your response. As I’d written, my comments were lighthearted. However, if I’m wrong anywhere, I stand corrected.
However, I’d like to comment about some things. Hindi film industry has not given anything of quality, I beg to disagree. The industry that has produced Lata Mangeshkar, Mohd Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, etc. and now Aishwarya and Anwesha (I’m really equating them with the greats) can’t be useless. Film music is one form of music and is equal in quality to any other form of music.If you consider the principle of greatest good of the greatest number, then film music is superior to any other form, because it’s the most popular.
By the way, Hindi music has so many genres other than film music, like ghazal, qawwali,bhajan,folk etc etc etc. Same is true for other languages too.
Coming to Pritam’s criticism of Anwesha which seems to have upset you so much. First off, let me say that I have nothing against Anwesha and in fact admire her quite a lot. But to be honest, in that particular episode, her singing was very casual and I really felt that she was a bit careless. In fact, in the last 2 or 3 episodes before that, she has been giving ordinary performances (for her standard) but getting full marks.
In actual fact, the judges have criticised Aishwarya much more than Anwesha (sometimes I felt that Aishwarya was unfairly given lower marks than she deserved) But Aishwarya’s cheerful, outgoing, extrovert nature made her accept everything with a sweet smile. On the other hand, Anwesha’s introvert nature caused her to burst into tears at the first sign of criticism. I’m not blaming her, I’m just saying these things because criticism helped Anwesha to improve her performance very much this time. Criticism helped Aishwarya too, she also has improved tremendously. So, there’s no reason to feel so bad about criticism.
$shashi :
Thanks to you for your time and patience for tolerating us in this BLOG .

I surely think that you SUCK in saying things like things. You are from Gujarat, but I m from Ahmedabad and I know the whole family. What corruption you are talking about i don`t understand. If at all you have a personal problem with the FATHER you should be fair enough to give due credit to the child. Personal problems should not be made public like this.
This is a reality show and we are talking about music and not about how each parent is like.
A contestant is judged by her performance and NOT BY HER BACKGROUND! Even i know a lot about some of other contestant`s background/parents/fake dramas they have done on this show. But i m decent enough not to talk about it and keep supporting AISHWARYA AND ANVESHA.
First, about the Bombay film industry. I thought the mother of Indian film industry was in Bombay long long before independence. But you’re saying that the entire origin of the Indian film industry was from Calcutta. I may be wrong, I’m not going to argue about that. You may very well be right.
Second, you say that the singing stars (mostly from Bengal) made the Indian film industry and not vice versa. Again, you may be right (though here I’d like to say that the paying public made both the Indian film industry and the stars). Satyajit Ray and others of that type made films which were colossal flops though they got awards abroad. If the entire film industry had turned out only flops like that, the industry would have shut down long long back.
Thirdly, you say that the Western films don’t have song and dance and so Indian films are inferior. What’s wrong with song and dance? This is our way and this is what makes Indian films unique and different. I am really proud that we have evolved our own brand of films instead of aping the West. (Let’s not even mention the sex and violence of the Western films, which unfortunately is finding its way into Indian films in a milder way)
Whether the Calcutta singers and actors spawned the Indian film industry or the other way, the fact remains that a very huge percentage of people enjoy film music and their lives have been enriched. So it’s all worth it.
I take the liberty to reply to your other comment about human behaviour, etc.etc.
Again, first off, let me say I have nothing against Anwesha and I’m not trying to defend Pritam.
I agree with you that praise should be given in public and scolding in private. But this is a televised competition where the viewer is asked to vote for the contestant. The viewer is entitled to know in total what’s happening and what the judges views are. And after all, the judge commented on the musical performance and not on the personal appearance or anything else.
The story of the hare and the tortoise can’t be considered to be humiliating or insulting. All he said was Anwesha you are a hare. But if you stop and take a rest, a tortoise will overtake you and win. This is by no stretch of the imagination an insult.
Any comment from an elder or Guru should be accepted with humility.
Dr.Biswas, you seem to admire the Americans specifically. The Americans are the worst hypocrites in human history so far. You talk about child abuse not present in America. How about the direct and indirect abuse of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children due to the Americans. The Americans have committed the biggest war crimes (Vietnam, Korea, Iraq and others). Above all, the nuclear bombs dropped on Japanese civilians killing and maiming hundreds of thousands. Bush and Truman are bigger war criminals than Hitler and Saddam Hussein.
How about the American atrocities on the blacks during the slavery days and stealing of the land and massacres of the native Indians?
Do you see the American media talking about this? No way.
ANSWERS TO MR.KVN8::
1.In 1898, Hiralal Sen started filming scenes of theatre productions at the Classic Theatre in Calcutta, inspired by Professor Stevenson (who had brought to India the country’s first bioscope)’s.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinema_of_India
(calcutta was capital of british india for 150yrs>: NOT BOMBAY,NOT DELHI ,NOT ANY other part of india.Pl read that for yourself.
2.WESTERN FILM AND MUSIC ARE TWO ENTITIES:
REASON WHAT I SAID.MUSIC IS ROBUST AND GENERATES ENOUGH FUNDS. indian film is local for indians but western films are global.
3.I do admire what they have achieved in TECHNOLOGY,SCIENCE AND COMMERCE. full stop…
4.you mentioned sex,violence,atrocities etc.etc. this is not the place to answer all that but…few indian things should make all of us hang head in shame:
only 10% of the indians have toilets,500 millions are below the poverty (subsharan poverty level)line,illiteracy is 65% .
5.FEW FACTS :WHERE PER CAPITA US INCOME $44,000 VS iNDIAN$2,300.WITH 1.2 BILLION INDIAN PEOPLE only 12% indians pay taxes.
USGDP$13.86 trillion (2007 est.) YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO TAKE ALL THE BAD THINGS FROM any where :
IF IGNORANCE IS BLISS FOR YOU FINE BUT I AM NOT GOINGNG TO TOLERATE -IS THAT CLEAR MAN. THAT IS A CHILD ABUSE WHAT THOSE BUSTARDS HAVE DONE AND DOING BECAUSE THERE ARE IGNORANT PEOPLE WHO ARE PRASING THEM.
When death news is given: how do you break that news to a loved ones? is an art. elimination ,giving them lower marks ,reprimanding all are that fine art one needs to know.
if the same procedure OF MUSICAL EVENT would have taken place IN USA among schoolchildren : THE RESULT WOULD BE THE FOLLOWING SCENARIO .
1. GAJ JI :WOULD BE SHOT DEAD IN MINUTES.
HIS HEAD WITH TILAK MARK ON HIS FOREHEAD AND HIS LAST HARE RAM WILL BE STILL FOR EVER
2.PRITAM :THEY WILL LYNCH HIM PUBLICLY > HIS PANTS WILL BE OFF ,BEARDS WILL BE FLYING>BEGGING FOR MERCY AND STAMMERING TO LAL-SALAM
3.KUNAL WILL BE SITTING DOWN IN TOILET :MAKING HIM MORARJI DESAI
4.SHREYA WILL SURRENDER AND RUN FOR LIFE.
ABHAAS WILL BE SAYING” I AM WITH YOU SIR,SIR,SIR” “BEAT THEM” > FROM JABBAL PUR TO BHAGAL PUR .
I humbly suggest, please cool down, chill out. My intention was not to get you so excited. This is not going to do good to anybody.
Only one thing I don’t get is that before Anwesha many other kids were spoken to in a worse way than for Anwesha ex.Prakriti before her elimination and more recently Rigved. Why were you silent then?
Anyway I don’t want to escalate this further.
One thing I’m glad about is that both of us support the same contestants.
MR. KVN8:
By 1955, India was faced with a severe food crisis. Memories of Bengal famine (1943) were still fresh. Over three million people had died in Bengal famine. During famine, people had begun eating leaves, banyan fruits hitherto eaten by animals and birds.
India had ran out of options. Chinese were already dying of starvation. Russia didn’t have any grain to spare. The war ravaged Europe was in no position to help others. Even if there was food available in the world market, India didn’t any foreign currency to buy it.
India in 1955 thus had only two options – either leave millions of its people to starve, or some Goddess came in with millions of tones of food as a free gift. It was at this point of time the US came to rescue. India signed a PL 480 wheat import deal with US in 1956.
The US was to supply 3.1 million tones of wheat annually for three years. Since India didn’t have foreign currency to pay for even the transportation cost. The magnanimous US agreed to accept the money in rupees.
ON AN AVERAGE DAY I GET 200 EMAILS FROM INDIA,UK,ARB COUNTRIES AND WEST INDIES JAMAICA, DOMINICA,TRINIDAD,MALAYSIA. THESE ARE DOCTORS ,NURSES AND OTHERS WHO ARE TRYING TO ESCAPE POVERTY.IN UK 15000 INDIAN DOCTORS ARE WORKING IN DHABA AND LOCAL GROCERY STORES ARE TRYING TO COME TO USA.
AFTER THAT FEW INDIANS HERE TRYING TO POTRAY TO ME ABOUT INDIA,AS IF I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT INDIA AND ITS BUSINESS.WHERE ONLY 10% OF THE MBBS CAN MAKE TO THEIR POST GRADUATE DEGREES BECAUSE ONLY FEW MEDICAL SCHOOL OFFER THAT.
BILL GATE AND MELINDA GATE FOUNDATIONS GIVE 56 BILLIONS TO WORLD HEALTH AND EDUCATION.
SO IF YOU DIDN’T EAT THAT “GHEU”YOUR FATHER OR GRAND FATHER DID.IF YOUR CHILD GETS POLIO ,MEASLES ,MUMPS ,RUBELLA AND ALL THESE VACCINES ::SAY NAMASTEY ‘TO BILLGATE’S PICTURE”.INDIANS SHOULD KNOW THAT!
Please Dr Biswas. Its clear that you like Anwesha. And you are a proud Bengali from USA. I like Anwesha too but I also like Ashwariya. Not because one is Bengali another Gujrati…it is because both of them are good singer. You have pasted links of lot of facts and figures, but you have to understand a simple thing that people are there who might like Ashwariya or Soniya or Prakriti….”Pasand apni apni”….and sir please do not react if anybody says that they do not like Anwesha… that does not mean that people from Calcutta is bad or the bengalies are bad..for Christ sake do not get into pasting all those links..ha ha ha ….everyone has the right to express their views so cool down.
I am a proud Bengali from Canada but I LOVE MY INDIA. Indian jane ke liye I am dying sir. GORO ka culture I DO NOT LIKE. Our Indian culture is far more better in many ways. Its only the dollar for which we are here but our people are great in all respect.
Dear avinash<

Pl read INDIAN HISTORY BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH..
Excellent entertainment from knowledgeable and learned intellectuals.It appears that PRITAMS’S comments over ANWESHA’S performance has caused deep anguish to our learned friend DRBISWAS and I do not blame him as the freedom loving Americans have very strict laws for atrocities against children unlike Indian society where young school children are often severly beaten up by the teachers .
Lately the reality shows in India have constantly added a dose of emotions to content which quite often backfires.You will often notice that Abhaas keeps on repeating ‘AB RONA MAT -AANSOO POCHH LO” when in fact they are calm and composed.On hearing Abhaas’s comments the young children become emotional and cannot hold back tears.It is all drama which emotional Indians relish.
FIRST DEVDAS FILM WAS MADE IN 1935 STARRING LEGENDARY FIGURE KUNDANLAL SAIGHAL YAMUNA AND PAHADI SANYAL . THIS FILM WAS PHOTOGRAPHED BY BIMAL ROY WHO LATER REMADE THIS CLASSIC WITH DILIP KUMAR IN LEAD . DILIP KUMAR IN FACT LIVED THIS ROLE AND WAS NOMINATED FOR FILMFARE AWARD.
SONG ‘DUKH KE AB DIN BEETAT NAHIN –’ IS STILL REMEMBERED BY MUSIC LOVERS.
devji,
PROCESS OF elimination, reprimanding and grading them can be done professionally: without hurting these children.
Praise: publicly to acknowledge it and let others be inspired. NEVER PIT A CHILD AGAINST HIS/HER PEER GROUP.NEVER.NEVER.THESE IS NOT A COCK FIGHT STUPID INDIAN. THIS IS A HUMAN CHILD .THIS IS NOT YOUR MONKEY BUSINESS >EVERY CHILD HAS A SPECIAL QUALITY >>SEE TARE JAMIN PAR. >>> INDIAN PARENTS NEED TO LISTEN >> PUBLIC MUST STOP THEIR MONKEY BUSINESS AND EDUCATE THEMSELVES.
Reprimand/criticize: privately
Call the child close to you>ask him/her why >listen to his/her reason >see IF the reason is correct or not .never in front of peer or not even parents. The child must feel that reprimand as you care. NEVER, NEVER HUMILATE A CHILD: STUPID INDIAN LISTEN >THIS WILL BE PERMANENT SCAR ON HIS/HER MIND.>this will strip off the self-esteem .self –esteem is a part of self identity. It will permanently paralyze the perception of the child about his or her won ability.
I could NEVER imagine that I am correcting A CHILD way.
Eliminatation:
Prepare the child first> tell him/her softly in private not in front of peer group. Never in front of public>>do not bring shame on a child. Tell honestly how he or she can improve.
Who is guj or Bengali?: i care less.
Children should not be lured to this abuse. I am not interested who wins> i am interested in fair system to judge the merit.
for heaven’s sake DONOT ABUSE THESE CHILDREN BY PUBLIC HUMILATION.WHEN SONIA CRIED AND SHE WAS ELIMINATED ,THE WAY ANWESHA WAS MADE “KATCHUA” AND PITTING ANOTHER CHILD AGAINST THEIR PEERS GROUP MAKING HER” MA SRASWATI” I THINK THESE CRUEL WAYS AND TOTAL HUMILATION TO HUMANITY OF A CHILD. I COULD NEVER TOLERATE THIS CRUEL “TAMASHA” .I SAW IN CHENNAI “THE BULL FIGHT” ON LINE ,THE CRUEL JIGS COMING OUT OF THE MOST UNCIVILIZED PEOPLE ON EARTH!!!
actually i am trying to locate the childwefare organisation and unicef’s director to see the modern methods of child ABUSE in india. I WILL ASK THE PARLIAMENTARIAN WHAT IS REACTION AND ALSO CNNIBN? WHY PEOPLE OF SHADDY CHARACTERS HAVE BEEN APPOINTED AS JUDGES?
I WILL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS MATTER,INSHALLA!!
I read Holy Quran sevral times in english ,from saudi ARABIA :CENTER FOR ISLAMIC STUDIES> i read bible ,the king james version 20 times and Bhagavad gita,upanishads,vedanta ,works of swami vevekananda ,swami avedananda and srisri ramkrishna parmahansa dev”s kathamrita,RABINDRA NATH TAGORE’S BRAHMO PHILOSOPHY = SAME UNDERSTANDING< iread psychology< psychiatry< nuerology < neuro biology <gentics :
I UNDERSTAND MEDICINE,LAW ,SCIENCE ,COMPUTERS :ALL THESE
BUT I STILL DONOT UNDERSTAND INDIAN & HIS IGNORANCE
Dr Biswas
Being a physician in the USA, where do you get the time to blog all the time? I am a die hard fan of Anwesha too but I think you’re taking Pritam’s commemts way too seriously.Pritam’s and Shreya’s comments may have been influenced by Gajji because he wants to see a very close contest between Anwesha and Aishwarya. Because until recently Anwesha has been a clear favorite(getting all Sarwottams)of the judges and Aishwariya was lagging behind with Atiuttams. I didn’t like Pritam’s comments either, it’s very demoralizing to a young kid who is trying her best. He could’ve given some constructive advice instead. Although, only advice to Anwesha will be to choose her songs carefully. Also,Pritam is not the first or the last music director to have copied from international music, so give him a break!
Mr. serious, i realize that you are very inquisitve about personal business:while using a psudo name!
coming staright to child abuse and your lukewarm support for this pritam tells me more than yo can say.
i donot not ask people whether they go to gary street in SF.
that’s our personal matter :i am not surprised by your question at all but most appropiate for an indian:FEW SAMPLES>>

I am a Neurologist practising in USA. I also got my training in U.K (MRCP)and I’m practising in USA.If you think demeaning people will make you happy so be it.Just because youre’re a physician doesn’nt make you a better person.Try for once to respect other people’s feelings and be a nice human being.
DEVJI, PLEASE FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE :RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT CHILD ABUSE.PLEASE FORGIVE ME I COULDN’T HELP BUT BECAME ANGRY.IT MADE ME SICK WHEN I SAW SONIA ‘CRYING’ AND HER WAILING “IT’S STILL RINGING IN MY EARS” AND THEN” ANWESHA’ :IT WAS A DEVASTAATING EFFECT ON ME: I COULDN’T EAT FOR 2DAYS.MY WHOLE FAMILY IS SICK! I AM SICK OF SEEING THESE CROOKS.SALMAN KHAN’S REMARKS”HAVE ANYBODY HEARD ? HALKA SE PATLA HUA THA OF PRITAM” HOW HE CHALLENGED !.I THINK SALMAN KHAN IS A VERY NICE PERSON.GOD BLESS HIM.SUCH PRITAM ,A CON-ARTIST USES THESE INNOCENT CHILDREN WHERE THEIR PARENTS ARE NOT AWARE OF THIS AS AN “ABUSE”.THESE PARENTS ARE SIMPLE MINDED PEOPLE,I KNOW.MY SISTER,RITA,13YRS OLD WAS KILLED WHEN I WAS 11YRS.OLD BY MILITIA IN FRONT OF ME IN EAST PAKISTAN> I CANNOT TAKE CHILDREN CRYING OR BEGGING OR ABUSED .

GOD BLESS HER !
I am calling you Dr although you are not behaving like one. If you hate indians so much what are you doing here blogging on an indian musical reality show website? what do you think of yourselves? stop this nonsense of yours if you want to avoid we indians backfiring at you!!!!!
by the way i am a PhD working in UC davis, CA.
MR PRAVEEN, I express the child abuse, in this reality show which is the bone of content.”WE INDIANS BACKFIRING AT yOU”-THIS IS DEMOCRATIC USA NOT YOUR VILLAGE.SO LEARN THE CIVIC MANNERS FIRST.DON’T CALL NAME.
Every time I hear her sing Albela Sajan, it brings tears to my eyes. She is truly gifted and will bring a lot of name’n'fame to her family and to Indian music. I only hope she does not get carried away by the lure of commercial entertainment and does not abandon her classical roots.
I THINK AISHWARYA IS EXCELLENT. AND I AM REALY A BIG FAN OF HER. I REQUEST EVERY BODY BPLZ VOTE FOR HER. PLZ………….!SHE IS THE DESERVING ONE. BEST OF LUCK 2 U AISH. U DO UR DUTY & I WILL DO MY DUTY. LUV U A LOT
I THINK AISHWARYA IS EXCELLENT. AND I AM REALY A BIG FAN OF HER. I REQUEST EVERY BODY BPLZ VOTE FOR HER. PLZ………….!SHE IS THE DESERVING ONE. BEST OF LUCK 2 U AISH. U DO UR DUTY & I WILL DO MY DUTY. LUV U A LOT AISHWARYA
1.There should be a new word in the English language called Aishwarya an adjective to describe any one who sings like my Aish, and the same word can be used as a adverb to describe a performance like my Aish’s performance.
2.In this contest and other future music contests the grades should be Madhyam, Uttam, Atiuttam, Sarvottam, Sartaj Sarvottam, Aishwarya.
Obviously, any singer who gets 3 Aishwaryas consistently will be the winner
Watched the video & enjoyed all the singers.Looks like judges are trying their best to keep Vyom in top 3. Prakriti Giri is a good singer too. Judges are showing their favoritism too much.Judges should be encouraging all the singers.
Ashwariya & Anwesha are trained, experienced contestants compare to other contestants in the show.Lets see, who will come in top 3 with them. Vyom or Prakriti ?
I think AISHWARYA fans are using multiple ids on this forum. Because in every other forum anvesha fans outnumber aishwarya fans by hundreds–each and every foum/blog!!
In Uk, all the Indians, regardless of caste or region,know anu is the best,ash is jut a mess. being powered by corrupt parents, as sweety said, is not a way to reach top spot. But Inidans also should know who is best and vote accordingly. Gujarat is not a fanatic state.IN SOME WAYS IT IS.but not in this matter it isn’t.
gujaratis may be against muslims but are not againts bengalis. Anyway it is surprising that the best cannot win. Ignorant ones, rise above your petty-mindedness.
It appears individal’s personal feelings and emotions have overtaken the rational behaviour and thinking. It is true that man is a rational animal who is different from animals on account of his intellect, thinking power and feelings. We all are rationl animals called human beings.I am personally more sensitive to sufferings and emotional black-mailing of young children. In CHHOTE USTAD programme it is responsibility of the Director Gajendra Singh and the three young judges to ensure that the feelings of the small children are not hurt in any manner . I was glad to observe that of all the persons present at the recording of the episode in which Soniya was eliminated it was PREETAM who started shouting at the director and in very strong words conveyed his feelings to stop the process of elimination as it greatly affected the psyche of innocent young children.He further suggested to end this show and declare all the remaining partipants as winners.Bravo Preetam! DR BISWAS is requested to kindly watch the video of this episode. The other judges Shreya AND Kunal are conducting themselves in dignified manner and are truly asset to this programme.The director is entirely responsible for the content of the show. There is no denying the fact that GAJENDRA’S shows have launched many a successful career in field of playback singing as well as acting.The highly gifted director will please take serious note of the feelings of millions of lovers of this programme and desist from creating unnecessary drama at the point of elimination of a contestant. Time and again I am writing that this is purly a music show and therefore there is no room for histrionics and “RONA DHONA”. There should be good music only . IF MUSIC BE THE FOOD OF LOVE PLAY ON(SHAKESPEARE IN MERCHANT OF VENICE)
IT IS DIABOLIC TO PASS COMMENTS ON YOUNG ANWESHA ABOUT HER COMPLEXION. I AM STAYING IN MUMBAI FOR MORE THAN SIX DECADES AND HAVE SEEN MANY TOP SO-CALLED GLAMOUROUS STARS WITHOUT GREASE PAINT. IN MY OPINION ANWESHA AT THIS AGE LOOKS FAR MORE CHARMING AND GLAMOUROUS THAN MANY A TOP ACTORS. IT IS MAGIC OF MAKE-UP MAN TO MAKE ORDINARY FACE LOOK ATTRACTIVE.I HAPPEN TO VISIT TOP MAKE-UP GENIUS MR. GODAMBE’S OFFICE IN JUHU MUMBAI SOMETIME BACK AND I SAW PHOTOS OF ALL TOP ACTRESSES IN HIS OFFICE .HE IS MAKE-UP GURU OF MADHURI DIKSHIT ,AISHWARYA RAI, JUHI CHAWLA, RANI MUKHERJI AND MANY OTHERS.
THE GREAT SINGING STAR KANAN DEVI WAS PROBABLY DARKER THAN ANWESHA AND WAS ALSO NOT BLESSED WITH AS GOOD FEATURES AS THOSE OF ANWESHA. AS A MATTER OF FACT TODAY’S TOP STARS MADHURI, AISHWARYA, KAJOL POSSESS DARK COMPLEXION AND AS FAR AS THEIR TALENT IN SINGING IS CONCERED THEY ARE BIG ZERO .I PREDICT GREAT FUTURE FOR YOUNG CHARMING ANWESHA AS A SINGING STAR SENSATION.
Without any doubt, Anwesha is far much superior than any other contestant of Chhote Ustaad. Only Aishwarya is next to her, but she also is faraway. Anwesha sings every type of song with complete maturity. I will not be surprised if India is lucky to find the next Lata Mangeshkar in the shape of Anwesha.
Besides regularly watching Chhote Ustaad every Friday and Saturday and enjoying listening to Anwesha’s voice, I also had the opportunity of listening to her Bengali song “Mahoyashi” on a website. I could not understand a single word of the song because I do not know Bangali, but the song was so melodious that I had forgotten that I was sitting in my office and was being watched by my office colleagues.
I will be deeply shocked and disappointed if Anwesha does not win the title of Chhote Ustaad. If it happens, I will only blame the Bangalis and the people of Kolkata. While they can come to Eden Garden in huge numbers to watch a cricket match by spending millions of rupees; while they can support Ganguly while he was thrown out from the Indian cricket team – why can’t Kolkatans vote for a deserving child Anwesha for fulfilling her dream.
Come on Bengal and especially Kolkatans, it is your duty that you support your daughter Anwesha. If I being a Pakistani can support her, considering her to be like my real daughter, why can’t you vote for her.
In the end I wish from the core of my heart that may Anwesha win the title of “Chhote Ustaad” and then one day she may become a “BARI USTAAD” as well.
AISHWARYA AND ANWESHA ARE ALMOST EQUALLY TALENTED SINGERS . I AGAIN REQUEST BLOGGERS TO HEAR THEM SING DUET QAWAALI OF FILM “MUGHAL-E -AZAM” WHICH I STILL CONSIDER THEIR GREATEST PERFORMANCE TILL DATE.(EPISODE OF 2ND FEBRUARY) THEY ALMOST EQUALLED IF NOT BETTERED THE STANDARD OF ORIGINAL SINGERS AT YOUNG AGE OF 13/14.
WATCH THAT PERFORMANCE COUPLE OF TIMES TO UNDERSTAND THE OUSTANDING POWER OF VOCAL CHORDS OF THESE YOUNG MAIDENS. GOD BLESS THEM ;BOTH ARE GOOD LOOKING AND ARE HEADING FOR A SENSATIONAL CAREER IN WORLD OF GLAMOUR AND MUSIC
AISHWARYA COULD HAVE IMPROVED UPON THE ORIGINAL SONG “ALBELA SAJAN AAIYO RE__’ FROM SALMAN”S FILM :HUM DIL DE CHUKE SANAM .AISHWARYA IS MUCH MUCH BETTER PERFORMER THAN THE STANDARD SHE SET WITH HER RENDITION OF THIS SONG.SHE IS A GREAT CLASSICAL SINGER.
SALMAN FOR ONCE SOUNDED WOUNDED WHEN HE REMARKED THAT AISHWARYA WAS TEN TIMES BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL SINGER. WHICH AISHWARYA BY THE WAY HE WAS REFFERING TO?GOD BLESS YOU SALMANBHAI A GENTLEMAN TO THE CORE -A GREAT HUMAN BEING.
Prakirti won ? Are you sure Prakriti Giri won the ‘Chote Ustaad’-2008 ? yeah we known she will be next ‘Chote Ustaad’-2008. Congratulation Prakriti ….!!!
Prakirti won ? Are you sure Prakriti Giri won the ‘Chote Ustaad’-2008 ? yeah we known she will be next ‘Chote Ustaad’-2008. Congratulation Prakriti ….!!!
SWEETY, DO YOU HAVE GOOD DOCTORS IN GUJARAT? GO GET YOUR MENTAL CHECK UP DONE. BEFORE YOU PUT ANY ALLEGATION AGAINST ANYONE, YOU SHALL HAVE PROOFS. THE FACT IS ALL THE NON-SUPPORTERS OF AISHWARYA CAN NOT EVEN ACCEPT THAT SHE IS WAY AHEAD OF OTHERS. (EVEN JUDGES HAVE THE SAME TO SAY. AT LEAST TODAY..& WE HAVE SOME 3 OR 4 MORE EPISODES YET TO CHECK THAT). IN THE EARLY PART OF THE SHOW WHEN AISHWARYA WAS NOT GETTING GOOD SONGS TO SING FOR, NO ONE WROTE ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND FOR ONE EPISODE IF SHE GOT A BETTER SONG, YOU CAN NOT EVEN ACCEPT THAT WHT SHE HAS PERFORMED WAS PAR EXCELLENCE! LEARN FROM ‘CHRONIC’ (COMMENT OF 2008-03-09 22:54:17) TO APPRECIATE WHAT IS GOOD. AISHWARYA’S WHOLE FAMILY WHEN ON STAGE PRESENTED THEIR VIEWS SO WELL THAT ANYONE WHO DO NOT EVEN KNOW THEM PERSONALLY CAN SAY THAT THEY ARE HIGHLY CULTURED PEOPLE. HOWEVER, FROM THE LANGUAGE YOU HAVE USED IN OFFERING YOUR VIEWS, ONE CAN EASILY SAY THAT YOU ARE COMING FROM THE SLUMS WHERE PARENTS CAN GET MIXED UP TOO… HBOWEVER, FIRST YOU NEED MENTAL TREATMENT AND THEN SOME MUSIC LEARNING.
Sri,
As Mr. Shantanu writes very correctly in this forum, being technically perfact singer makes a good music teacher.
Unfortunately same falls completely true for dear Anwesha. For being a good singer, Anwesha needs a lot more things than just being technically perfact.
Remember, becoming technically perfact is matter of choice but to become good singer one needs to have a perfact voice quality, attitude, kindness and over and above all, acceptence by mass. Do I need to say who is getting it?
Pallavi,
this is surely for you-comment by AMBAAR-2008-03-11, 12:58:41.Sweety has surely lost it, now it seems that even you have by talking abt the parents. YOU NEED TO RISE ABOVE YOUR PETTY-MINDEDNESS.Ha- Ha.
I don`t understand over here that why these Anvesha fans are so biased and understand only loyalty towards one community and DO NOT UNDERSTAND MUSIC. otherwise I m sure they could see what the Judges from the same community could see.I think they are being Fanatics and nothing else. they can`t take one criticism in the right spirit while little AISHWARYA of only 14 years has been doing that. i think that is the sole reason for her FANTASTIC IMPROVEMENT-going far ahead than all. grow up! growing means improving on your own mistakes and moving ahead with the time.
Have you seen any of AISHWARYA supporters putting FAKE and FALSE allegations on others.
Hey Sweety,
Why do you hate Aishwarya’s Dad? C’mon, One to one. I know him personally. Tell me how is he corrupt? How has he hurt you or anyone in any way? I give you this open invitation OR challange to prove yourself and if you are proved right, I will take you to Mr. Majmudar myself. Either prove that he is corrupt or openly take your words back.
At the same time, even if you think or believe beyond doubt that he is corrupt, how does that matter to his daughter? Take your own example, Let us presume that your Mom and Dad are good humans, but check your foul language, So…. It is not mandatory that children of good citizens are going to be good Citizens & Visa Versa !!!!!!
With these 2 songs of 8th March, Aishwarya has shown that she’s not only the best playback singer of the present (her spectacular career is sure to start immediately) but also a great classical singer.
Her playback singing ability was never in doubt from the beginning but in classical singing she was considered slightly below Anwesha. But not any more.
Devkishinji, obviously Salman was impressed by this Aishwarya, our Aishwarya. I don’t know what you’re referring to.
That’s because poor ash hardly has any supporters!! Thiase hwo are, are from her family( not even state) or her powerful lobby. most people love anvu. They think ash is just so-so. many are like her. of they get training from sucha young age, everyone can become like her.
aishwarya will NEVER become aplaybak singer. even salman khan hated her–was so obvious from his face. he told anvu-”you are the best.”
for KVNIRANJAN8:SALMAN’S ANOTHER AISHWARYA WAS—–COME ON EVERY ONE KNOWS THAT.I NEED NOT IDENTIFY HER AS IT IS ALMOST A HOUSEHOLD NAME KNOWN THROUGHOUT THIS COUNTRY. GROW UP YOUNG MAN. WHEN YOU WILL LEARN ALL THESE THINGS? NEED I FEED YOU WITH SPOON.
PLEASE TAKE THIS IN GOOD HUMOUR. I TRUST YOU WILL TAKE IT LIGHTLY AND IN GOOD SPIRITS AFTER GOING THROUGH BOMBARDMENTS OF SOME LEARNED AND HIGHLY CULTURED FRIENDS HEREINABOVE.
M.ZUbir,
these are all predetermined drama.
1.How Mr.Kunal Gunjwala could write sarvottam on a piece of paper in his pocket from home before seeing aiswyria’s performance.
2.how Bhopal became the highest voter for chotte ustaad>no contestant is from bhopal!
3.These are all gimics in which the children have been the pawn.which normal parent will allow their kid to participate in this and avoid school for 4 months.
4.little hindi songs competition, how does it progress a child towards a good singing carrieer.
anwesha has already recorded beautiful music in calcutta.
These are not grammy awwards or disney world music or BBc world music participation> what other past winners have done with their life to become big star.
for my extended 3 families we participated to show all the kids to know india but we have reservations the way it’s conducted, is unprofessional.one child is deeply traumatised by sonia’s expulsion..many people think i am alone blogging here but it’s all done by 4 kids and 3 adults ,3 places syncronised by web conferencing but it’s our version.we never allow kids to do anything without supervision.we do not keep any television in our houses.television distract learning and a passive persuit.these are our personal views.
we wish your words become true so that color of skin,dowry and child abuse become thing of the past in Modern india.DOES IT RELFECT REALITY in India? if it does and when it does we will remember your kind words and hope. we enjoyed this BLOG Participation and your comments. for my (2brothers &1 sister) 3 families we participated to show all the kids to know india (our theme) but we have reservations the way it’s conducted, is unprofessional.one child is deeply traumatised by sonia’s expulsion..many people think i am alone blogging here but it’s all done by 4 kids and 3 adults ,3 places syncronised by web conferencing but it’s our version.we never allow kids to do anything without supervision.we do not keep any television in our houses.television distract learning and a passive persuit.these are our personal views. we thank you very much. you are truly knowledgable in INDIAN MUSIC AND INDIAN FILMS.kids have special thanks for you.
Let’s not forget it’s a reality show. Every contestant will eventually get eliminated except one, the winner, The Chhote Ustaad. Kids come to these shows knowing this. So when Sonya got eliminated I see no reason for it being interpreted as “Child Abuse”.It’s sad to see these talented kids leave but that’s the reality otherwise there will be no compettition and no losers and definitely no winners . So let’s just enjoy good music and may the best singer win.
Hi Parveen
I totally agree with you. What’s wrong with this guy. He is a physician from India but has no respect for his fellow Indians. And not every indian is from from a village Dr Biswas. You can’t generalize the people from a whole country as child abusers.If you have a point, express it but stop blasting Indians.This is a blog for Indian music lovers so can we just stick to that. We don’t need to know your biodata.
First of all you need to learn civic sense first before teaching it to someone else. In my opinion anybody condemning his country and people of his country cannot be called as someone with civic sense by any means. looks like you came from a village thats why to you it seems that anybody who is from india is from a village. And regardig anvesha’s issue of child abuse let me tell you that anvesha is not a 7 or 8 year old child. she is a 14 year old grown up kid. i am not sure whether you have or not seen what simon cowell does to 15-16 year old kids in a reality show in your so called democratic america. What pritam did to anvesha was don any abuse by any means. she was just told to be serious and there is nothing wrong in that.
@ serious
thank you for your support. i really appreciate your comments. Mr biswas seems to be one of those guys who are racist against their own race. rest i cannot say anything here because this is a blog of sophisticated people where people appreciate good music and decent comments. so lets just stick to them.
Thanks for your response. Maybe I’m stupid but I still don’t get what you meant by your original comment. Salman sounded wounded….. Why would Salman be wounded if our Aishwarya sang better than the original?
In this episode, it’s pretty clear that the entire team agreed to give prominence to Anwesha as far as attention from Salman is concerned (this was also mentioned by Abhaas once, probably because Anwesha has a crush on Salman. Fine, I’m not criticising it) That’s the reason Salman was paying so much attention to Anwesha. But even then Salman was forced to acknowledge the greatness of Aishwarya.
This episode is historic for my little gem Aishwarya because she has silenced her critics (true music critics, not the Bengali fanatic critics) and she is beyond compare.
So I humbly request you, Devji, to kindly tell this stupid guy in straight words what you meant by your original comments.
Regarding ‘bombardment by learned persons’ I’d say that those specific comments from DR.A.K.BISWAS were written more in the style of a street thug than a learned person. If you think any number of such comments are going to intimidate me, you have to think again.
Finally it really pains me, Devji, that you are trying to undermine Aishwarya’s performance. Please at least give credit where credit is due. And I thought you were most balanced and impartial.
I also request you to take these comments sportingly.
from the very beginning these Judges had praised (even when she was Average, she was given SARVOTTAM) Anvesha so much, it was difficult for her to digest it.I think same is with her supporters. they and Anvesha thought that she was the BEST and no one could come near her. BUT when Aishwarya proved it wrong by constantly performing brilliantly in the last 4 episodes. these supporters suddenly feel threatened and so is the reason for so much on child abuse? I think she is lucky that they pointed out what was lacking in her performance even at this stage in the competition, otherwise no scope on improvement.
AISHWARYA was mostly criticised on all performances and evidently we can see the improvement.More than anything I love her spirit to take criticism in the right spirit and work on it.
I m so HAPPY for AISHWARYA that she showed the world that she is no less.
CHILD ABUSE- we can see IT on these comments mostly put up by educated(i presume so as they use computer) people. They should be told to check their language.
KVNIRANJAN8:
I think you are not staying in India otherwise you would have known SALMAN- AISHWARYA CONNECTION.
I reiterate that Salman khan is a gentleman but sometimes strangely unpredictable and reckless. He is very possessive unlike his other brothers who are more disciplined and less agressive. It is time his family compels him to settle down in life . Only a sober and intelligent girl can co-exist with this erratic genius. Behind steel frame there exists a man called SALMAN one of the greatest philanthropists in BOLLYWOOD film industry.
When Salman told AISHWARYA you performed 10 times better than the original singer(or AISHWARYA RAI’S FATHER VIKRAM GHOKLE IN FILM ‘HUM DIL DE CHUKE SANAM’- I DO NOT KNOW WHO WAS THE ORIGINAL SINGER BUT THE COMPOSER ISMAIL DARBAR EXTRACTED GOOD PERFORMANCE FROM THE SINGER . ISMAIL ALWAYS COMPOSES ORIGINAL TUNES AND ALL HIS SONGS BECOME POPULAR. ISMAIL IS DEDICATED AND HARD-WORKING MUSIC COMPOSER )I just thought about the film’s heroine AISHWARYA .Kindly listen to original composition and compare with that of young AISHWRYA’S performance.As far as AISHWARYA’S talent is concerned she is second to none. I like your balanced views and comments.
I feel very emotional about Aishwarya (my little Aishwarya, not Aishwarya Rai) When someone slaps my little Aishwarya verbally, I feel like someone slapped me. When someone appreciates Aishwarya’s truly great performance, it makes me happy.
i thnk she sang it well….but still she doesn’t sing the song as the original song(please listen to the orginal)…she cuts the original harkats and puts her own harkats…..wch i thnk is not a gud thing at a learning level…..in others words she makes the song comfortable for herself…
I was suprised to c ur comments that aishwariyas name should be in english dictnory and ur comments on rating and wht not… common give us a break
Other songs on this raga are:
Puchho na kaise maine rain bitai – Meri Surat Teri Aankhen
Vandana karo, archana karo
Ramka gun gaan kariye – Ram Shyam Gun Gaan (Anon film album)
Meri bina tum bin roye – Dekh Kabir Roya
Main to kabse teri sharan men hun – Ram Nagari
Zindagi ko sanvarana hoga – Alaap
Sola barasaki bali umarko salam – Ek Duje Ke Liye
Mai ri mai, kaise jiyun ri – Chala Vahi Desh(non film album) ????
Apne jeevan ki uljhan ko – Uljhan
Man Anand Anand Chhayo – Vijeta
Waqt karta jo wafa aap hamare hote – Dilne Pukara
Ram teri ganga maili ho gayi… – Ram Teri Ganga Maili
Dhire Dhire Subah Hui He Jag Uthi Jindagi
Meri galiyonse logonki yari badh gai – Dharmatma
Chalo man jayen ghar apne – Swami Vivekananda
Albela sajan aayo re – Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam
Thanks fr ur comment. I’d like to reply, if I may. Pls bear with me if I’m wrong somewhere.
First, abt this specific song. I’ll confess, I haven’t heard the original (this is an advantage cos I’ve reacted as if for a new song). Why not consider this as a original contribution from Aishwarya? The important factor is the impact of the singing on those hearing it. If the end result of the innovations had been horrible to hear, I’d agree with u. But when it’s sublime and divine sounding it should be acknowledged as such.
There’s nothing wrong in making a song comfortable to sing. The question is whether it’s comfortable for the audience to hear. In this case, it sure was. That’s why she got Sartaj Sarvottams
This performance of Aishwarya is partly the reason why I commented that Aishwarya should be a name in the English and other dictionaries.
Another thing I would like to add: the famous song “Puchho na kaise maine rain bitai – Meri Surat Teri Aankhen” – Manna Dey ; is a copy of a famous Bengali Nazrul Sangeet: “Arunokanti ke go yogi bhikhari…” …
I request you to listen to another one : “ yogi aya” from the movie “ Black and White… ( Sukhbinder Singh and Sadhna Sargam)…. And guess the Raaga….
AISHWARYA SANG ‘ALBELA SAJAN AAIYO RE—’ALONE WHERE AS THE ORIGINAL SONG IS SUNG BY 4 SINGERS- SULTAN KHAN (HIS VOICE RESEMBLES THAT OF VIKRAM GHOKLE WHO SANG IN FILM)KAVITA KRISHNAMURTHY, SHANKAR AND EHSAAN.
WHILE THE ORIGINAL SONG MUST HAVE TAKEN MANY HOURS TO RECORD , THE YOUNG AISHWARYA SANG ALL THE FOUR VERSIONS IN ONE TAKE IN MINUTES!THERE LIES THE REAL COMPETENCE AND ABUNDANT TALENT OF THIS YOUNG ANGEL.
IT IS TRUE THAT SHE ADDED MANY NEW MURKIYAN AND ALAAPS BUT THOSE WERE MELODIUS AND TOUCHED YOUR SOUL.
GOD BLESS AISHWARYA. SHE TRULY DESERVED THREE SARTAJ SARVOTTAMS.
JACK AND VIKAS:PUCHHO NA KAISE MAINE RAIN BITAAI–’S BENGALI VERSION WAS SUNG BY YOUNG PARTICIPANT IN CHILDREN’S SPECIAL SAREGAMA SHOW ABOUT TWO YEARS BACK AND THE WAY THE SINGER CARRIED THE SONG TO A VERY HIGH PITCH WAS SIMPLY AMAZING. I HAVE VIDEO OF THAT SONG IN MY COLLECTION .SINGER SONALI BAJPAI AND LALIT SEN A MUSIC COMPOSER WERE THE JUDGES IN THAT PROGRAMME. THERE WERE JOINT WINNERS IN THAT EPISODE.
I REMEMBER THAT HIGHLY TALENTED YOUNG PATICIPANT VIVIDLY AS I HAPPENED TO MEET HER AT MUMBAI’S FAMOUS STUDIOS WHERE SHE HAD FOR A PERFORMANCE. SHE WAS WITH HER FATHER AND WHEN I TOLD HER THAT I LIKED HER RENDITION OF A VERY OLD SONG FROM FILM KISMAT MADE 60 YEARS AGO SHE WAS OVERWHELMED WITH EMOTION AND TOUCHED MY FEET. THE SONG FROM FILM KISMAT WAS ‘DHIRE DHIRE AARE BAADAL DHIRE DHIRE AA MERA BULBUL SO RAHA HAI SHOR GUL NA MACHA–’COMPOSED BY ANIL BISWAS WHO WAS INCIDENTLY THE JUDGE AT THE EPISODE IN WHICH I HAD BEEN INVITED AS A SPECIAL GUEST. IT WAS MY PROUD PRIVILEDGE TO SPEAK TO LEGEND ANIL BISWAS FOR A FEW MINUTES AS WE WERE SEATED IN FRONT ROW. THAT WAS THE LAST APPEARANCE OF ANILDA IN SAREGAMA SHOW AS HE PASSED AWAY IN ABOUT A MONTH’S TIME AFTER THE RECORDING OF THAT EPISODE .I HAVE RECORDED THAT EPISODE TWICE .
I just googled for it. I am music illiterate, but I can tell immediately when someone makes a mistake in sur or tal, and I love music so much that after listening to this rendition of albela sajan, i was in tears. And I have listened to it everyday here since, and am in tears every time. Maybe I should take some music lessons.
WHAT A STRANGE!Here someone is neurologist from UK, practicing as physician in USA. Even for fellowship ,one to be a consultant one must pass USMLE, American boards of specialty after 4yers of residency before a neurologist becomes a board certified MD in USA . UK and Canadian MRCP/FRCS, a DIPLOMA NOT a degree, have no reciprocity in USA.
Another said” I am PHD student in UC Davis”
Amazing !!
This site is not a job site that a neurologist or PhD student (on student visa?) can apply .
This site is not a Matrimonial site that someone can give Green card by marriage to stay in US.
Here nobody has nerve problem to get advice from neurologist nor anybody needs tuition from PDH student to write term papers.
Last question remains:
Then give us respect: what should we do? Stand on our head and give these two Indians salute?
Yet both geniuses do not admire America, (if truly in America).then, what are you doing here? Wrong place? Vyom’s mimicry” I am little confused”
This is neither a circus that you can show trapeze and entertain us nor a zoo that you can expect visitors to give you banana: so PLEASE go to those appropriate place where you can show your skills and get banana.
Biswas,
By the way I am fully trained in USA and a board certified Neurologist with fellowship in Neurophysiology.I didn’t think it was necessary to give you my full resume. Please stop personal attacks and try to behave like a cultured person.You’re right this is not a job searching or matrimonial site so stop boring us with your elaborate bio data. Anyways this is a site for INDIAN music lovers let’s just stick to discussing music.
WE ARE DIGRESSING FROM THE REAL PURPOSE OF THIS SERVICE PROVIDED BY STAR PLUS . GAJENDRA SINGH IS PARTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS. INSTEAD OF MUSIC MORE AND MORE EXTRANEOUS CONTENT IS INTRUDING IN GAJENDRA’S PROGRAMME.THIS HAS PROVED TO BE CONTAGIOUS AS THE BLOGGERS ARE CARRIED AWAY BY UNNATURAL EMOTIONS WHICH HAVE BECOME PART OF EVERY EPISODE OF THIS SHOW. LET US HAVE SOME MELODIOUS SONGS OF 50′S 60′S AND70′S IN REMAINING 3/4 EPISODES AS THE COMPOSITIONS OF PRESENT-DAY MUSIC DIRECTORS HAVE ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE MINDS OF VIEWERS.INSTEAD OF SOOTHING THE NERVES THE TODAY’S MUSIC HAS GENERATED TENSION AND UNEASINESS.LATEST RANKING ACCORDING TO ME:
1.AISHWARYA *****
2.ANWESHA*****
3.VYOM***
4.PRAKRITI**
PLEASE SELECT MELODIUS SONGS FOR THE REMAINING EPISODES
Dr Biswas,
What are you doing here blogging in this indian Music site? You are too cultured(?) and its demeaning for you to blog in this site because its for INDIAN MUSIC LOVERS and you are a far superior(?) human being. You are not indian, you are an ‘AMERICAN’ so go blog on American idol and leave us alone.
Mr DEVKISHIN
You’r right we should be concentrating more on this program than other personal things.You’re ranking is perfect considering last week’s performances but personallly I think Anwesha is way better than Aishwariya.I think they should be given the same songs to sing so we can decide once and for all.I believe that Anwesha can modulate her voice and has a much wider range than Aishwariya. Aishwarya is an excellent singer too but in my humble opinion I think Anwesha is much better.

Aishwarya is an excellent singer too but in my humble opinion I think Anwesha is much better.
I second your thoughts, but lately (maybe its just me) I noticed Anwesha is having some sort of breathing probs. I have noticed that she struggles sometimes to complete the whole sentence of the song!
She should work harder on where to take her breaths rightly without us noticing it !
Anwesha does have perect voice quality, has a great attitude and is extremely kind and is definately accepted by the mass, so I don’t know what you’re getting at. Are you trying to say that she is not a good singer?
I think either youneed to wear our glasses or learn to read english!!!! when did i say that i am a PhD student? I said i am a PhD and i am workiung in UC Davis. I didnt tell that because I need a job.I already have one. neither did i tell it because itsa matrimony site.i dont need to go on matrimony website because i am already married. I mentioned that just to clarify because ignorant person like you asusmes that everyone from india is illiterate the same way you assumed everyone lived in village like you.
And I never said anythng against america. i completely appreciate good things about america. My only ire is against somebody who has been condemning indians and india repeatedly on an indian blog site.i can never tolerate this nonsense !!!
coming back to music anvesha is my favorite in chotte ustaad. i think she has a better range and more versatile than aishwarya. But aishwarya is very good too. i loved her albela sajan performance in this episode. but i dont think her “chori chori” perfomance desrerved as much praise as she got. if you liste to the original song, sonu has made so may beautiful variations which aishwarya skipped and made he song easy according to her convinience. nevertheless its a very difficult song so she deserves a pat on her back for attemping it quite well.
To answer a question posed earlier in this thread… Anwesha fans feel the need to be defensive, because she never gets votes, even when she is good! I remember when she sang Ami Je Tomar (Mere Dholna), she only came in third place in public voting, when she clearly should’ve been first! It’s completely unjust, that a great talent like her is being ignored by the masses. It’s only when I come to these sorts of blogs and forums, do I notice immense support for her (and rightly so!), but why aren’t they voting!!? Aishwarya is good and her ranking in public voting is totally justified, but so is Anwesha, and she never gets what she deserves in terms of voting. However, I have noticed that for the past two weeks, she has come in third place (not bad for her), and I know Bengali’s are crazy about their homegrown contestants and will eventually come through for her (e.g., Sanchita, Aneek, Anamika) – so I suppose there is hope for her yet. But please, spread Anwesha awareness everywhere, this girl deserves more votes than she is currently getting.
In my opinion Anwesha is way better than Aishwariya.Listen to her voice modulation in Bawaaria re , Mayiya mayia, Mere Dholna and Hum dil de chuke sanam and I can go on and on – it’s unbelievable.She is one of the best singers to have come along in a long long time. Aishwariya is good too but she is not exceptional. She has a breathing problem and more importantly she sometimes can not hold her SUR.Anwesha on the other hand never misses SUR which is the hallmark of a good singer.
Biswas, you need to get a life and if you think being a doctor is all that and Indians are bad people, then look at yourself. You are Indian and you are probably the worst Indian I’ve ever seen. Get off everyone else’s case you imbecile.
stop the child abuse : stop the way you are getting kick out of these poor children humilated publicly and one is pitted aginst the other>get fair system of judgement for merit>give same Music to all, see how they perform >bring outside judges committe who can give secret verdict with their knowledge >stop this public voting and regionalism.
Talk wtih sense.
We have no prejudice who is from where > some children sing Bhajan better some folk ,some rabindra sangeet, some Adhunik etc.sonia’s voice is just different from prakriti .anwesha’s voice is different from aiswyaria, the little boy eliminated (niazi) had a beautiful voice.
so it’s unfair way to judge and eliminate them >i am protesting against that.
AGAINST EVRY UNFAIR AND UNJUST ,I WILL PROTEST> WHEN MERITORIOUS STUDENTS DO NOT GET CHANCE TO MED SCHOOLS ,IIT> SOME PRIVATE SCHOOLS IN SOUTH /OTHERPLACE TAKE DONATIONS AND ADMIT THEM IS GROSSLY INJUSTICE AND UNFAIR TO KIDS NOT GETTING INTO HIGHER EDUCATION..(SORRY, THIS OUT OF PLACE TO COMMENT BUT IT HURTS ME)
WHY DON’T YOU WRITE TO GAJ JI TO-DAY. I HAVE WRITTEN TO HIM AND THE JUDGES FOR FAIR SYSTEM OF PARTICIPATION AND ELIMINATION. I HAVE SENT IT TO A FIREND IN BOMBAY WHO WILL PERSONALLY DELIVER IT TO HIS OFFICE.
Attn: Kolkata
i m out of india though i m not indian but living in neighour.i like to attention you ppl from kolkata that you got different problem to recognise your soul of roar.Regarding about anvessa can say that she is real performer however the judges doing excellent job to bloom these kids potential.Anyway (((Bangla))) vote anvessa ; really she deserve this. dont make any super wrong>>> kolkata.

Ever since the show began, I have supported Anvesha because I find her technically superior and the most melodious singer of all the children. I was delighted to see her perform so impressively in songs like “Maiya Maiya” and “Khalas” which are so different from the genre where she excels.
Aishwarya, on the other hand, is a contestant whom I have grown to admire more and more as the show progresses. Her voice quality and ‘harkats’ were always wonderful and now she is also capable of making her notes vibrate. Although I still think of Anvesha as the better singer of the two, I am thrilled by the improvement that Aishwarya has made.
If the Grande Finale is between these two, it will be a fascinating contest to watch. I only hope that regionalism and favouritism do not creep in to the judgement.
BAD NOISY MUSIC SPOILS YOUR MOOD AND GOOD SOOTHING MUSIC CALMS YOUR NERVES AND TOUCHES YOUR SOUL.
AISHWARYA’S RENDITION OF ALBELA SAJAN AAIYO RE–IS GREATLY APPRECIATED BY VIEWERS AS THIS COMPOSITION WAS BASED ON CLASSICAL RAAGA WHICH IS THE VERY ROOT OF EVOLUTION OF SANGEET IN OUR COUNTRY . IT IS INDEED A PITY THAT WE HAVE FORGOTTEN OUR TRADITIONAL MUSIC AND HAVE STARTED APING POP MUSIC WHICH IS NOTHING BUT NOISE DEVOID OF EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS.
THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF SUCH COMPOSITIONS BASED ON VARIOUS RAAGAS WHICH TODAY’S GENERATION MIGHT NOT HAVE HEARD.
NAUSHAD’S MALKAUS-BASED BHAJAN MAN TADPAT HARI DARASHAN KO AAJ– ALWAYS TOUCHED THE SOUL WHENEVER IT WAS SUNG IN GAJENDRA’S SHOW.SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN’S MORE THAN 50% COMPOSITIONS ARE BASED ON RAAG BHAIRAVI.JAIKISHAN NAMED HIS FIRST CHILD BHAIRAVI AND SHE IS VERY POPULAR IN MUMBAI’S SOCIAL CIRCLES.SHE IS KNOWN AS BHAIRAVI JAI- KISHAN. WHEN SHAAN ASKED ANIL BISWAS ABOUT HIS FAVOURITE COMPOSER AMONG TODAY;S GENERATION HE PAUSED FOR A MOMENT AND ASKED SHAAN WHETHER THERE WAS ANY REAL COMPOSER AT PRESENT . HE FURTHER SAID IT WAS ALL KEY BOARD’S MAGIC.
IF ALL THE MUSIC DIRECTORS PAST AS WELL AS PRESENT ARE ASKED ABOUT THEIR FAVOURITE RAAGA IN SOME INDIAN CONCERT
YOU JUST IMAGINE HOW THEY WILL REPLY:
NAUSHAD:RAAG MALKAUS RAAG SHIV RANJANI RAAG SHUD KALYAN ETC ETC.
SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN:BHAIRVI PAHAADI ETC ETC.
ANU MALIK PREETAM VISHAL-SHEKHAR AND THE REST ALL TOGETHER IN ONE VOICE WILL SHOUT :RAAG ASHUD KALYAN.
BRAVO! AND WE LISTEN TO ALL THOSE ASHUD KALYAN -BASED COMPOSITIONS.
WOW VIKAS -THIS IS THE GREATEST COMPILATION OF SONGS BASED ON CLASSICAL RAAGAS . I SHALL TREASURE THIS COMPILATION FOR MY FUTURE REFERENCE. IT IS INFORMATIVE AND INVALUABLE COMPILATION FOR ALL MUSIC LOVERS.
GREAT EFFORT .GOD BLESS YOU.
Let me analyse your personality by the comments you have offered. First, it is not child’s falut if at all his/her father is corrupt. Who is not corrut in India. A very miniscule % of people are honest and rest are more or less corrupt. Be it businessman, film personalities,politicians,judges,doctors, engineers ,police, beaurocates et al. So let us leave it at that. Second you have some personal problem with Aish or her family. Please sort it out at your level and not in public domain. By writing such vituperative comments, you are exposing your negative and faulty personality. This forum is for giving your comments about the contestants and not their family. So please abstain from such remarks in future or you will get it in the same coin.
As far as battle btw Aish and Anvesha is concerned , Preetam is biasd for Anvesha, Somebody remember “Helen episode”. Preetam’s comments about Anvesha’s performance were “Frankly I did not like it” and yet he gave her “Sarvotam”. In my opinion both Aish and Anvesha are very good singers but Aish has a definite edge over anvesha as is evident from no of times she has got standing ovation from judges and guests alike.Remember what abheejit and alka said. How many times did Anvesha got such standing ovation!
JACK:
MONTY SHARMA’S COMPOSITIONS SOUND ORIGINAL,BUT HE WAS ASSISTED BY SANJAY LEELA BANSALI WHO LIKES MELODIUS MUSIC. BOTH OF THEM WORKED TOGETHER AND THE END RESULT WAS QUITE PRAISE-WORTHY.
AS FAR AS AR REHMAN IS CONCERNED I THINK HE IS OVER-RATED COMPOSER .THOUGH HE CHARGES THE HIGHEST REMUNERATION FOR COMPOSING MUSIC THERE ARE HARDLY HALF A DOZEN HITS TO HIS CREDIT IN HINDI FILMS.
TODAY’S LYRICS ARE NOT AS SIMPLE AND MEANINGFUL AS THOSE PENNED BY LYRICISTS OF BY- GONE ERA VIZ. SHAKEEL BADAYUNI KAIFI AZMI MAJROOH SULTANPURI HASRAT JAIPURI SHAILENDRA GULZAR RAJINDER KRISHIN ETC.
THE COMMON MAN IS NOT ABLE TO PICK UP THE SONG DUE TO COMPLICATED WORDING
JUST RECOLLECT SOME OF THE OLD SONGS WHICH WERE HITS AND EASY TO REMEMBER
1.INSAAF KA MANDIR HAI YE BHAGWAN KA GHAR HAI -NAUSHAD
2.YEH HAWA YEH RAAT YEH CHANDNI–SAJAAD HUSSAIN
3.BAHARO PHOOL BARSAO MERA MEHBBOB AYA HAI—SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN
4.AAP KI NAZRON NE SAMJA PYAR KE KABIL MUJE–MADAN MOHAN
5.DOST DOST NA RAHA PYAR PYAR NA RAHA—S-J
6.AWAAZ DE KAHAN HAI –NAUSHAD
I CAN GO ON AND ON AND ON.
THE WORDS SHOULD BE SIMPLE AND MEANINGFUL .
TO PARTENTS:
WE would request PARENTS if your kid has talent that could compete at the international level,PLEASE
try:
1.to join BBC.WORLD MUSIC (UK).
2.DISNEY WORLD MUSIC (USA)
3. INTERNATIONAL TALENT ACADEMY, INC.USA
4.The University of Music and Performing Arts in vienna (AUSTRIA):where Jubin Mehta went.
5.GRAMMY (USA) :competition and exposure:Norah>elder daughter of Pandit Ravi shankar won Grammy awward in 2002 but Anuksha shankar also got exposure from this platform as a participant. http://www.grammy.com/
Just Keep confidence in yourself and try to give this life a bloom (you are the Gardener).God bless.
Once and for all this is a reality show! Someone has to be eliminated every week. And I think all the kids participating come prepared for that.These reality shows have given us a lot of good singers like Shreya Ghosal , Kunal Gunjawala, Monali Thakur (Race songs)etc.
I heard Kunal tried a few times before he finally won. Its A COMPETETION like any other competion and there will be loosers and winners like any other show.I just don’t understand these STUPID comments about CHILD ABUSE by DRAKBISWAS.Child abuse is prevalent and we should flight against it but I just fail to see the relevance to Chhote Ustaad.These kids come to these shows knowing that they are probably going to be eliminated if they are not good enough and thats the name of the game.. I think judges have been very empathatic to the contestants and are very sweet to all contestants. I just don’t understand where this CHILD ABUSE ACCUSATION is coming from? IT has no basis whatsoever
First of all its Zubin Mehta not Jubin Mehta.In this reality show we are trying to find a good playback singer for our HINDI movies not the the next grammy winner.Nora Roberts won the GRAMMYS but Anushka never did even being so talented and you think these kids have a chance on an international platform? You’re such a FAKE PERSON! I believe everyone by now knows what your true colors are. DON’T try to portray yourself as very cultured because its obvious you’re NOT.

I for one, completely agree serious, this is a game show
and if the children want to compete then they must be ready to be eliminated if they are not good enough. This has nothing to do with child abuse.

Once and for all this is a reality show! Someone has to be eliminated every week. And I think all the kids participating come prepared for that.These reality shows have given us a lot of good singers like Shreya Ghosal , Kunal Gunjawala, Monali Thakur (Race songs)etc.
I heard Kunal tried a few times before he finally won. Its A COMPETETION like any other competion and there will be loosers and winners like any other show.I just don’t understand these STUPID comments about CHILD ABUSE by DRAKBISWAS.Child abuse is prevalent and we should flight against it but I just fail to see the relevance to Chhote Ustaad.These kids come to these shows knowing that they are probably going to be eliminated if they are not good enough and thats the name of the game.. I think judges have been very empathatic to the contestants and are very sweet to all contestants. I just don’t understand where this CHILD ABUSE ACCUSATION is coming from? IT has no basis whatsoever

I have been reading all the garbage you have been writing about Aishwarya and her family and I truly agree with some of the above comments that you are crazy. You are showing your true colors by being foul mouthed and abusive. Please refrain from making stupid personal comments about anyones family. if you have nothing encouraging to say to the kids then kindly refrain yourself from making any comments. it is better than your foul mouthed drivel.
Similar comments are meant for Pallavi maybe Sweety by Alias.
USMLE 20 years ago???? you defiently seem to be out of your mind.
now i am having serious doubts over your identity. and by the way you should know that people living in america dont like to be called Dr eventhough they are doctors. people here in america like to be called by their first names. but you the biggest american lover in the world put Dr before your name!!!
First of all mind your language!!! I am talking to you properly so better stick to that!!!
And secondly, learn to write proper english. you haven’t learned from americans that yu need to write in a way so that everyone can understand easily??? and how about ECFMG abolished 30 years ago? you have answer to that?
ECFMG: ABLOSHED 30 YRS AGO
VQUE:25 YRS AGO
USMLE :20YRS NOW. AND STILL CURRENT
THESE ARE ALL EXAMINATIONS *** (NOT THE ECFMG ORNIZATION )BEFORE A FOREIGN MEDICAL GRADUATE COULD JOIN FOR US RESIDENCY TRAINING. JUST STOP YOUR NONSENSE.
THIS NOT A FORUM > THIS IS A BLOG WHERE OTHERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT MUSIC : I HAVE PERSONAL VIEWS ABOUT CHILDREN’s elimination process and how they are treated.others may diagree but personal attacks are unwanted and i will not tolerate any injustice to these children.DO NOT ATTACK OTHERS PERSONALLY AND YOU WILL NOT BE ATTACKED. PEOPLE MAY DISAGREE AND HAVE DIFFERENT OPINIONS BUT MUST HAVE RESPECT FOR OTHERS’ VIEWS.
i completely agree with you. to argue with Mr Biswas we will have to stoop down very low to his level. i have been talking nicely because this is a bog site for nice respectable people and this u has started takin names. i dont want to spoil my mouth and this blog site so its better i move out of this conversation. this guy can never liste to anyone
Other bloggers i am really sorry for degressing from music for sometime. Happy blogging everyone!!

Drakbiswas..I would just wonder what you have to say about shows like American Idol? Do you think because the contestants are a couple of years older it’s not child abuse (if you assume Chote Ustad is abusing children)?
Rules
Contestants have to be singers and are not permitted to have any current record deals or talent management agreements (though they may have had one at some point in the past). They must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents eligible to work full-time and, for the first three seasons, had to be 16 to 24 years of age on October 19 of the year of audition. Since the fourth season, the upper age limit was raised to 28 with an earlier cutoff date, August 4, to attract more mature and diverse contestants.
The first five American Idols are from the Southern United States of America (U.S) and the sixth, Jordin Sparks, is from the Southwest. Hicks was the oldest winner at 29, Sparks the youngest at just 17. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Idol
I cannot agree with you. Aishwarya is a gifted girl, she is only 14 and has a mellow voice which if developed further will take her places. However she is not the best because Anvesha is much superior to her. The quality of voice, technical precision, and rendition of difficult songs is made much better by Anvesha. Also she is a much more consistent performer.
We should appreciate her as she is the underdog and aishwarya has already been hyped and inflated enough. Trute talent should not lose out.
For the first few weeks Anwesha sang superbly and nobody seemed near to her. Then her choices of songs became bad and she sang average original songs. As a result she also also did not appear exciting. On the other hand the choice of songs by Aiswarya gradually became brilliant and she appeared better than Anwesha.
In one episode Shreya advised Anwesha to have a smiling face and since then Anwesha is deliberately smiling even if the song is a sad song. As a result words are not coming out properly from her mouth. Anwesha should not listen to anybody. She should close her eyes and sing the songs and the results will be outstanding.
Anwsha is the best and it will be proved in the next episodes.
WHY THROW STONES AT EACH OTHER AND WASTE OUR PRECIOUS TIME ON THIS WONDERFUL SITE ?
LET US COCENTRATE ON MUSIC AND GOOD MUSIC ONLY ON THIS BLOG . THE VOICE OF INDIA (CHHOTE USTAD) CONTESTANTS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH LAPTOPS AND OTHER GADGETS AND PROBABLY THEY ARE GOING THROUGH THIS VERBAL AGGRESSION.THESE DISCUSSIONS ON THIS SITE MIGHT JOLT THE INNOCENT CHILDREN’S MIND AND IT ALMOST TANTAMOUNTS CHILD ABUSE.
I HOPE AND TRUST NO MORE MUD SLINGING WILL APPEAR ON BLOG.
THE NEXT TWO EPISODES i.e.FRIDAY’S AND SATURDAY’S EPISODES MUST HAVE BEEN RECORDED AT BHOPAL-A HINDI BELT-BY NOW.IT IS ALMOST 3 PM IST. 7 HOURS TO GO BEFORE YOU GET TO WATCH THE TODAY’S EPISODE.
THERE IS POSSIBILITY THAT EITHER PRAKRITI OR VYOM MAY HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED IN TODAY’S SHOW. THE SURVIVING ONE OF THE TWO CAN CONTINUE FOR ONE MORE WEEK BEFORE THE GRAND FINALE.THIS IS PURELY MY PERSONAL JUDGEMENT.
THE TWO LIKELY CONTENDERS FOR THE TITLE OF CHHOTE USTAD- AISHWARYA AND ANWESHA WILL BATTLE OUT IN FINALS, LIKELY TO TAKE PLACE IN MUMBAI.
THE JUDGES ARE DOING A FANTASTIC JOB WITH THEIR TACTICAL MARKING OF THE REMAINING CONTESTANTS. THIS IS A PATH-BREAKING STRATEGY TO CROWN THE DESERVING TALENT AS CHHOTE USTAD.ANY CONTESTANT GETTING EXCESSIVE SUPPORT DISPROPORTIONATE TO HIS OR HER REAL WORTH VIA SMSS AND OTHER SOURCES WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF BY THE JUDGES GRADING. BRAVO GAJENDRA SINGH AS YOU HAVE FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PITFALLS OF PUBLIC VOTING. ALL THE MUSIC LOVERS REST ASSURED THAT THE BEST TALENT WILL BAG THE CROWN OF CHHOTTE USTAD MAINLY DUE TO PRESSURE FROM THE VIEWERS AND THE EXPERTS AND THE NECESSARY CHANGES IN VOTING SYSTEM IMPLEMENTED BY THE DIRECTOR GAJENDRABHAI AS A RESULT OF THAT PRESSURE.
PREPARE YOURSELF FOR SENSATIONAL BATTLE BETWEEN TWO HIGHLY GIFTED YOUNG PERFORMERS.GOD BLESS THEM.
MY REQUEST TO GAJJI-PLEASE ALLOW BOTH THE SINGERS TO SELECT ATLEAST 3 SONGS OF THEIR OWN CHOICE AND 2 COMMON SONGS TO BE SUNG BY EACH OF THEM . SELECT OLD AS WELL AS NEW SONGS. WAH CHHOTE USTAD-DUNIYA KO HILAKE RAKH DIYA!
completely agree with sanjaya.Anwesha should pay more attention on making good song choices and sing them from her heart. She doen’t need to do anything else becase She is the best.

HI!
I was going through all the blog responses and I noticed that you handled everything( specially Dr Biswas’s responses) in a very cultured manner. Although we support different contestants (You like Aishwarya and I like Anwesha)but hats off to you for remaining so calm after being badgered by a maniac! Happy blogging!
Wow! Gajman does it again! He favored money to talent!
If there are still folks out there who believe this show is not pre-planned, then I suggest those folks to pinch themselves VERY HARD and wake up from their DREAM!!
Vyom got eliminated on today’s episode!
I wouldn’t be surprised if Prakriti wins the ChottE Ustad title!!
These are all predetermined drama.
1.How Mr.Kunal Gunjwala could write sartaj sarvottam on a piece of paper in his pocket from home before seeing aiswyria’s performance.
2.how Bhopal became the highest voter for chotte ustaad>no contestant is from bhopal!
3.These are all gimics in which the children have been the pawn.
4.from little hindi songs competition, how does it progress a child towards a good singing carrieer.
what other past winners have done with their life to become big stars?
Indian Music Industry should stand on its own platform firmly rather than this Bollywood.
Drakbiswas:
I think I can answer few of your questions:
These are all predetermined drama.
1.How Mr.Kunal Gunjwala could write sartaj sarvottam on a piece of paper in his pocket from home before seeing aiswyria’s performance.[Avinash] Very simple, during takes he would have written and kept the pirce of paper in his pocket and to add “excitement” to the air, he said that. If you have taken it literally, then you are wrong!
2.how Bhopal became the highest voter for chotte ustaad>no contestant is from bhopal![Avinash\I don't know!
3.These are all gimics in which the children have been the pawn.[Avinash]I wouldn’t go to that extent, as history has shown that some of the competitors have used these reality shows to be stars!
4.from little hindi songs competition, how does it progress a child towards a good singing carrieer. [Avinash] Because, Hindi/Bollywood market is bigger than any other regional market.
what other past winners have done with their life to become big stars? [Avinash] Sunidhi Chauhan, Shreya Ghosal, Kunal..
Indian Music Industry should stand on its own platform firmly rather than this Bollywood.
The best guest APPEARENCE:SALMAN khan:
HIS ADVICE: don’t carried way with this musical events was remarkable.
GOOD HUMAN BEING INDEED FOR HIS KIND REMARKS AND SESTIVITY HE SHOWED TOWARDS THE KIDS AND THEIR CONDITIONS >DONATED AND SUPPORTED THE CAUSE! EXCELLENT ROAD MODEL! AMIR KHAN IS ANOTHER REMARKABLE MAN ,VERY INTELLIGENT AND WITTY.
hi iam sunny from pakistan.i like your programe. i am seeing voi for 11 months i am big fan of anweesha. you are my best singer in voi 1you are very cute and atractive
i relly feel dat u r absolutly rite in xpressin ur views abt corruption nd personal probs,,,but tell me wen has anwesha evr got below sarvottam wereas aish has got atiuttam a couplpe of times…recalld jungle episode in vich vyom nd sonia wer bettr dan aish(acc 2 d marks)…nd as far as anwesha goes,she is damn humble nd has grr8 strength in her voice…..
XCUSE ME Mr.,,,I THINK VYOM HAS A GRRR8 PERSONALITY..ITS NOT ONLY ME,BUT EVERY1 BELEEVS DAT…VYOM ALONG WID ANWESHA WILL DO GRR8 IN LIFE,IF VYOM GETS TRAINED IN CLASSICAL…OTHERS ALL R REALLY ORDINARY………..
very true sis.
anwesha is d best singer der out. aish is good bt very fake. y does she try to act so cute n kiddish? pipl of dis age dont behav in such an immature way. besides her parents r so artificial i just hate all 3 of dem. Anvesha is a true winner n a good person n truly deserves to win. aish is artificial n dats true. believe it or not. i dont kno y is everyone after dat “albela sajan” performance of hers. if anwesha had to sing it she wud hav done 1000 times more justice to it. wat an ease she sings wt.
Its really amaizing performance from both of these finalists, they are remakably good, one can not distinguish between them. But i vote for Aishwariya as she being youngest performing equally good to Anwesha.
Being a bangali…I am biased towards Anwesha….and being a music lover I am more biased toward this wonder girl…..she is undoubtedly better than Aishwarya…..Aishwarya is a good singer obviously…but she need to be more good to compeit Anwesha ….moreover she just “show offff” too muchh….I think she is overmatured and quite fake in behaiviour…and most funny thing is…Anwesha wants to copy her because she thinks that will make her popular like Aiswarya…but she should understand that her simplicity is her greatest asset and should never try to copy aishwarya…..I wish both of the contestant “All The Best”…and ofcourse…want Anwesha to win the contest.
aish is not the younger one. See their profile in svoi chote ustad. When the competetion started Anwesha was 13 years old and aish was 14 already.So do the math who is youngest.
Sorry, comments for this entry are closed at this time.

Did any one observe:
pritam :was trying to flatter and flattened by his own comment”upar note se sur thora se halka” immediately salman replied”did anybody hear that? -NO ” ACTUALLY THIS PRITAM IS A CONARTIST.HIS BEHAVIOR IS BASICALLY A FACADE OF PRETENSION.HE DOESN’T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT MUSIC EXCEPT STELALING AND FLATTERING.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pritam
Born in Kolkata, Pritam is the son of Prabodh Chakraborty, who runs a music school for children. Pritam gained his early training in music from his father, and learned to play the guitar while still in school. Off late he has gained notoriety for the fact that almost all of his compositions till date are blatently plagiarised from lesser known Middle Eastern / Asian / Western artists.
alzazera has a criminal court of contempt but i don’t know those cases, how to get them. i hate this guy!! he looks like a terrorist and criminal.just look at any artist or Music directors ,always a pure and serene appearence.you always see him hiding his face behind a tinted large frame glass like a crook & ugly.voym’s mimicry was correct:he was touching those kids “is me kucth hai “- kia hai” i am really suspecious about his intention of giving plaback for ANWESHA & aiswyaria.

AISH,
YOU WERE JUST TERRIFIC. IT IS BEYOND ONE’S BELIEF THAT A 14 YEAR OLD CAN SING LIKE YOU DO. EVERYTIME I SEAT TO WATCH VOI CHHOTE USTAAD, I DECIDE NOT TO GET IN TO SPELL THAT YOU CREATE IN ABOUT 2 ~ 3 MINUTES TIME SLOT GIVEN TO YOU FOR SINGING. EVERYTIME I GET IN TO YOUR SPELL AND GET OUT OF IT ONLY WHEN I HEAR NOISE OF AUDIENCE CHEARING YOU UP.
FOR ANY PERSON HAVING EVEN SLIGHTEST UNDERSTANDING OF MUSIC IT WILL BE CRIMINAL OFFENCE TO COMPARE AISHWARYA WITH ANY OTHER CONTESTANT OF CHHOTE USTAAD. IF SHE IS GIVEN 95 OUT OF 100 MARKS, HER NEAREST CONTESTANT WOULD GET NOTHING BEYOND 75. THIS GIRL AISHWARYA SINGS AT COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LEVEL. WE INDIANS NEED TO BE PROUD OF HAVING SUCH SINGER WITHIN US.

@ Mansi Saraswat
Please do not Exaggerate about Aish by over stating that no one is near to Aishwarya,and if she gets 95 out of 100 other contenstants should get nothing beyond 75
To remind you Anewesha is on par or much better technically then Aishwariya and she has proven tht time and again by consistent performances
So if you are real music lover appreciate the correct talent rather then giving such statements

salman khan liked it very much….
all three judges gave her sartaj sarvottams……
i thnk she sang it very well….but still she doesn’t sing the song as the original song…she cuts the original harkats and puts her own harkats…..wch i thnk is not a gud thing at a learning level…..in others words she makes the song comfortable for herself…

I am really proud that I am a supporter and fan of Aishwarya from the beginning. I earlier felt that Aish was not as technically good as Anwesha but today I’m happy to eat my words. What an improvement.
Aishwarya has shown that she’s not lacking in any aspect of music. Today I’m left speechless and breathless. Aishwarya is at least as good as Anwesha technically and better in other aspects.
Though overall Aishwarya is slightly better than Anwesha, still I feel that both of them should jointly be declared joint winners of Chote Ustaad title. I predict that it’s going to happen that way. To leave out one of them will be total injustice.

SALMAN KHAN’S PRESENCE ENLIVENED THE ENVIRONMENTS. THIS TOP ACTOR IS REGULAR AT GAJENDRA’S MUSIC SHOWS AS HE HIMSELF IS FOND OF MUSIC AND POSSESSES EAR FOR A MELODY.
SALMAN KHAN AND HIS BIG JOINT FAMILY IS A SHINING EXAMPLE OF NATIONAL INTEGRATION.THIS FAMILY HAS WELCOMED AND ACCEPTED GIRLS FROM OTHER RELIGIONS AND COMMUNITIES AND HAVE SELECTED NON-MUSLIM GROOMS FOR THEIR DAUGHTERS .ALL THE FAMILIES HAVE BLENDED BEAUTIFULLY AND IF THERE IS ANY AWARD FOR NATIONAL INTEGRATION THERE CAN NOT BE A BETTER CONTENDER THAN SALIMBHAI’S FAMILY WHO HAVE SET AN AMAZING EXAMPLE FOR THIS NATION WHICH SOME INDIVIDUALS ARE BENT UPON DIVIDING FOR THEIR PERSONAL GAINS.
ALL PERFORMERS WERE INSPIRED BY SALMAN’S PRESENCE AND SANG WITH GREAT FEELING AND EMOTION.SHREYA KUNAL AND ABHAAS’S SONGS WERE A BONUS FOR MUSIC LOVERS. GREAT EPISODE .MAY THE BEST THREE GET THE PUBLIC SUPPORT .
THE NEXT EPISODE WILL TAKE PLACE IN CITY OF BHOPAL .

Aishwaria sang very well but she has a problem as far breathing is concerned. She seemed out of breath for most her song. She needs to work on how to control her breathing.I am surprised that none of the judges pointed that out! Anwesha on the otherhand, I thought, was almost perfect.
By chronic on Mar 9, 2008 | Reply
Both Aishwarya and Anwesha were great. Aishwarya had some amazing songs to sing, ‘Albela’ is one of my favourite songs from HDDCS. And while I support Anwesha fully, I have to give credit where credit is due and Aishwarya was truly terrfic. I think better song choices for Anwesha, would make her performances even more fantastic than they already are. I recently heard from India Forums that Anwesha has been very sick, so I don’t know how she will perform this coming week, though I’ll still support her. Poor girl, she’s getting mixed messages. The judges are telling her she’s good, but the public, by not voting for her, are telling her she’s not. I really hope she isn’t making herself sick by worrying about lack of votes.

At least we have a competition on our hands now. Wow, Aishwarya was fantastic. I was completely lost in her last performance. Superb Aish! She has improved so much. You know, in the beginning of this show, I thought both Aishwarya and Anwesha were equally fantastic and were on a level playing feild, few performances afterwards, I started thinking that Anwesha was slightly better, but now I may have to rethink (though I still support both). A great way to decide which is better between the two would be to have them sing the same song individually, not together like they have in the past.

Many manipulations ,poltics and dirty businness from education to every FIELD in indian system.this Musical competition is no different.eg.few doctors who had no degree, did kidney transplants over 500 people in DELHI (Amit Kumar,http://www.ibnlive.com/news/how-the-kidney-kingpin-was-arrested/58422-3.html)
there are 3000 doctors in delhi alone have no degree are QUACKS> IMC,INDIAN MEDICAL COUNCIL HAS NO CLUE ,NEVER PERFORMS ITS DUTY,COMPLETE APATHY(director of IMC wrote to my email: MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS IN USA. WE DON’T WANT NRI DOCTORS TO INTERFARE IN OUR INTERNAL MATTER.IRONICALLY THE SAME PERSON WROTE 2YRS AGO: PLEASE TRY HARD THAT WE BECOME RECOGNISED TO BMC,British medical council and AMC american medical council AGAIN.
UNTIL OUR SOCIAL LEVEL OF AWARENESS COME UP THE CORRUPT WAYS CAN NEVER BE COMBATED IN INDIA.EVEN FROM A DISTANCE WE DO PARTICIPATE IN EVRY WELFARE OF INDIA AND INDIAN PEOPLE.
These kids are not my kids but i feel they are mine> they all are talented, if parents simply nurture them and DO NOT PUSH THEM TO GET SOME CHEAP RECOGNITION OR SUBJECT THEM TO PSYCHOLOGIAL PRESSURE AT SUCH A TENDER AGE,IS MY REQUEST.

I REQUESTED SPECIAL PERSONS IN MUSIC DEPT. IN UC DAVIS AND UC BERKELY : TO GIVE THEIR VALUABLE OPINION :THOUGH THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND THE LANGUAGE: OPINION:: “THE ANWESHA & AISWARIA HAVE NO DIFFERENCE IN QULAITY OF VOICE, SIMPLY DIFFERNCE IS THEIR OWN VOICE WHICH IS, NO SINGLE VOICE IS THE SAME IN THE WORLD. MANY SINGERS IN WORLD MUSIC, SING IN THEIR OWN NATIVE LANGUAGE AND SOUND ETHEREAL BUT IF THEY ARE TO SING IN ENGLISH,THEY WILL FAIL MISERABLY”

With all due respect, I couldn’t make out what Dr.Biswas was implying. All I can state without fear of contradiction is Dr.Biswas is not happy about SOMETHING. It’s all way over my head (I am not very short, about average height). All this talk about Gujarathi tongue Bengali song Hindi film sends my head spinning in an anticlockwise direction.
All I know about this performance is that Aishwarya’s singing was heavenly and Aish is divinely inspired and blessed.
All my heart tells me is that I love this little angel Aishwarya. With all my heart.

Aishwarya is brilliant! ‘Albela Sajan’ performance is simply mindblowing….
Unfair about Prakruti… She has given better performance than last time… I think Judges are deliberately criticizing Prakruti. At least they ( Judges ) should not do all that kind of politics with kids… All kids are too young for that …. What I believe is Prakruti will be become Chote ustad .. Same as happened with VOI earlier as Judges passed “Negative comments” about Ishmeet, and then
Ishmeet got sympathy votes and made him popular to win the VOI title… As Prakruti is from East side and ( as per the reputation of Reality Shows for Singers like in Saregamapa last 2 winners were from East, Last Indian Idol is from East …) i.e. as per voting trade, these type programs are more appreciated/huge support from East side. And such programs profitability depends on number of votes they get.
It’s not bad that who supports whom.. as winner is
selected from Voting. But I personally feel bad, when
Judges critisize that Indians do not understand music.
As judges forget that they are at that place because of
we love there work. If we really hate the music , then
they will be nowhere….

Thanks for your response. As I’d written, my comments were lighthearted. However, if I’m wrong anywhere, I stand corrected.
However, I’d like to comment about some things. Hindi film industry has not given anything of quality, I beg to disagree. The industry that has produced Lata Mangeshkar, Mohd Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, etc. and now Aishwarya and Anwesha (I’m really equating them with the greats) can’t be useless. Film music is one form of music and is equal in quality to any other form of music.If you consider the principle of greatest good of the greatest number, then film music is superior to any other form, because it’s the most popular.
By the way, Hindi music has so many genres other than film music, like ghazal, qawwali,bhajan,folk etc etc etc. Same is true for other languages too.
Coming to Pritam’s criticism of Anwesha which seems to have upset you so much. First off, let me say that I have nothing against Anwesha and in fact admire her quite a lot. But to be honest, in that particular episode, her singing was very casual and I really felt that she was a bit careless. In fact, in the last 2 or 3 episodes before that, she has been giving ordinary performances (for her standard) but getting full marks.
In actual fact, the judges have criticised Aishwarya much more than Anwesha (sometimes I felt that Aishwarya was unfairly given lower marks than she deserved) But Aishwarya’s cheerful, outgoing, extrovert nature made her accept everything with a sweet smile. On the other hand, Anwesha’s introvert nature caused her to burst into tears at the first sign of criticism. I’m not blaming her, I’m just saying these things because criticism helped Anwesha to improve her performance very much this time. Criticism helped Aishwarya too, she also has improved tremendously. So, there’s no reason to feel so bad about criticism.

I surely think that you SUCK in saying things like things. You are from Gujarat, but I m from Ahmedabad and I know the whole family. What corruption you are talking about i don`t understand. If at all you have a personal problem with the FATHER you should be fair enough to give due credit to the child. Personal problems should not be made public like this.
This is a reality show and we are talking about music and not about how each parent is like.
A contestant is judged by her performance and NOT BY HER BACKGROUND! Even i know a lot about some of other contestant`s background/parents/fake dramas they have done on this show. But i m decent enough not to talk about it and keep supporting AISHWARYA AND ANVESHA.

Dr.A.K.BISWAS
Thank you again for your response.
First, about the Bombay film industry. I thought the mother of Indian film industry was in Bombay long long before independence. But you’re saying that the entire origin of the Indian film industry was from Calcutta. I may be wrong, I’m not going to argue about that. You may very well be right.
Second, you say that the singing stars (mostly from Bengal) made the Indian film industry and not vice versa. Again, you may be right (though here I’d like to say that the paying public made both the Indian film industry and the stars). Satyajit Ray and others of that type made films which were colossal flops though they got awards abroad. If the entire film industry had turned out only flops like that, the industry would have shut down long long back.
Thirdly, you say that the Western films don’t have song and dance and so Indian films are inferior. What’s wrong with song and dance? This is our way and this is what makes Indian films unique and different. I am really proud that we have evolved our own brand of films instead of aping the West. (Let’s not even mention the sex and violence of the Western films, which unfortunately is finding its way into Indian films in a milder way)
Whether the Calcutta singers and actors spawned the Indian film industry or the other way, the fact remains that a very huge percentage of people enjoy film music and their lives have been enriched. So it’s all worth it.

I take the liberty to reply to your other comment about human behaviour, etc.etc.
Again, first off, let me say I have nothing against Anwesha and I’m not trying to defend Pritam.
I agree with you that praise should be given in public and scolding in private. But this is a televised competition where the viewer is asked to vote for the contestant. The viewer is entitled to know in total what’s happening and what the judges views are. And after all, the judge commented on the musical performance and not on the personal appearance or anything else.
The story of the hare and the tortoise can’t be considered to be humiliating or insulting. All he said was Anwesha you are a hare. But if you stop and take a rest, a tortoise will overtake you and win. This is by no stretch of the imagination an insult.
Any comment from an elder or Guru should be accepted with humility.
Dr.Biswas, you seem to admire the Americans specifically. The Americans are the worst hypocrites in human history so far. You talk about child abuse not present in America. How about the direct and indirect abuse of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children due to the Americans. The Americans have committed the biggest war crimes (Vietnam, Korea, Iraq and others). Above all, the nuclear bombs dropped on Japanese civilians killing and maiming hundreds of thousands. Bush and Truman are bigger war criminals than Hitler and Saddam Hussein.
How about the American atrocities on the blacks during the slavery days and stealing of the land and massacres of the native Indians?
Do you see the American media talking about this? No way.

1.In 1898, Hiralal Sen started filming scenes of theatre productions at the Classic Theatre in Calcutta, inspired by Professor Stevenson (who had brought to India the country’s first bioscope)’s.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinema_of_India
(calcutta was capital of british india for 150yrs>: NOT BOMBAY,NOT DELHI ,NOT ANY other part of india.Pl read that for yourself.
2.WESTERN FILM AND MUSIC ARE TWO ENTITIES:
REASON WHAT I SAID.MUSIC IS ROBUST AND GENERATES ENOUGH FUNDS. indian film is local for indians but western films are global.
3.I do admire what they have achieved in TECHNOLOGY,SCIENCE AND COMMERCE. full stop…
4.you mentioned sex,violence,atrocities etc.etc. this is not the place to answer all that but…few indian things should make all of us hang head in shame:
only 10% of the indians have toilets,500 millions are below the poverty (subsharan poverty level)line,illiteracy is 65% .
5.FEW FACTS :WHERE PER CAPITA US INCOME $44,000 VS iNDIAN$2,300.WITH 1.2 BILLION INDIAN PEOPLE only 12% indians pay taxes.
USGDP$13.86 trillion (2007 est.) YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO TAKE ALL THE BAD THINGS FROM any where :
IF IGNORANCE IS BLISS FOR YOU FINE BUT I AM NOT GOINGNG TO TOLERATE -IS THAT CLEAR MAN. THAT IS A CHILD ABUSE WHAT THOSE BUSTARDS HAVE DONE AND DOING BECAUSE THERE ARE IGNORANT PEOPLE WHO ARE PRASING THEM.

WOW DR.A.K.BISWAS,
I humbly suggest, please cool down, chill out. My intention was not to get you so excited. This is not going to do good to anybody.
Only one thing I don’t get is that before Anwesha many other kids were spoken to in a worse way than for Anwesha ex.Prakriti before her elimination and more recently Rigved. Why were you silent then?
Anyway I don’t want to escalate this further.
One thing I’m glad about is that both of us support the same contestants.
Cheers.

MR. KVN8:
By 1955, India was faced with a severe food crisis. Memories of Bengal famine (1943) were still fresh. Over three million people had died in Bengal famine. During famine, people had begun eating leaves, banyan fruits hitherto eaten by animals and birds.
India had ran out of options. Chinese were already dying of starvation. Russia didn’t have any grain to spare. The war ravaged Europe was in no position to help others. Even if there was food available in the world market, India didn’t any foreign currency to buy it.
India in 1955 thus had only two options – either leave millions of its people to starve, or some Goddess came in with millions of tones of food as a free gift. It was at this point of time the US came to rescue. India signed a PL 480 wheat import deal with US in 1956.
The US was to supply 3.1 million tones of wheat annually for three years. Since India didn’t have foreign currency to pay for even the transportation cost. The magnanimous US agreed to accept the money in rupees.

Please Dr Biswas. Its clear that you like Anwesha. And you are a proud Bengali from USA. I like Anwesha too but I also like Ashwariya. Not because one is Bengali another Gujrati…it is because both of them are good singer. You have pasted links of lot of facts and figures, but you have to understand a simple thing that people are there who might like Ashwariya or Soniya or Prakriti….”Pasand apni apni”….and sir please do not react if anybody says that they do not like Anwesha… that does not mean that people from Calcutta is bad or the bengalies are bad..for Christ sake do not get into pasting all those links..ha ha ha ….everyone has the right to express their views so cool down.

Excellent entertainment from knowledgeable and learned intellectuals.It appears that PRITAMS’S comments over ANWESHA’S performance has caused deep anguish to our learned friend DRBISWAS and I do not blame him as the freedom loving Americans have very strict laws for atrocities against children unlike Indian society where young school children are often severly beaten up by the teachers .
Lately the reality shows in India have constantly added a dose of emotions to content which quite often backfires.You will often notice that Abhaas keeps on repeating ‘AB RONA MAT -AANSOO POCHH LO” when in fact they are calm and composed.On hearing Abhaas’s comments the young children become emotional and cannot hold back tears.It is all drama which emotional Indians relish.

devji,
PROCESS OF elimination, reprimanding and grading them can be done professionally: without hurting these children.
Praise: publicly to acknowledge it and let others be inspired. NEVER PIT A CHILD AGAINST HIS/HER PEER GROUP.NEVER.NEVER.THESE IS NOT A COCK FIGHT STUPID INDIAN. THIS IS A HUMAN CHILD .THIS IS NOT YOUR MONKEY BUSINESS >EVERY CHILD HAS A SPECIAL QUALITY >>SEE TARE JAMIN PAR. >>> INDIAN PARENTS NEED TO LISTEN >> PUBLIC MUST STOP THEIR MONKEY BUSINESS AND EDUCATE THEMSELVES.
Reprimand/criticize: privately
Call the child close to you>ask him/her why >listen to his/her reason >see IF the reason is correct or not .never in front of peer or not even parents. The child must feel that reprimand as you care. NEVER, NEVER HUMILATE A CHILD: STUPID INDIAN LISTEN >THIS WILL BE PERMANENT SCAR ON HIS/HER MIND.>this will strip off the self-esteem .self –esteem is a part of self identity. It will permanently paralyze the perception of the child about his or her won ability.
I could NEVER imagine that I am correcting A CHILD way.
Eliminatation:
Prepare the child first> tell him/her softly in private not in front of peer group. Never in front of public>>do not bring shame on a child. Tell honestly how he or she can improve.
Who is guj or Bengali?: i care less.
Children should not be lured to this abuse. I am not interested who wins> i am interested in fair system to judge the merit.
for heaven’s sake DONOT ABUSE THESE CHILDREN BY PUBLIC HUMILATION.WHEN SONIA CRIED AND SHE WAS ELIMINATED ,THE WAY ANWESHA WAS MADE “KATCHUA” AND PITTING ANOTHER CHILD AGAINST THEIR PEERS GROUP MAKING HER” MA SRASWATI” I THINK THESE CRUEL WAYS AND TOTAL HUMILATION TO HUMANITY OF A CHILD.

Being a physician in the USA, where do you get the time to blog all the time? I am a die hard fan of Anwesha too but I think you’re taking Pritam’s commemts way too seriously.Pritam’s and Shreya’s comments may have been influenced by Gajji because he wants to see a very close contest between Anwesha and Aishwarya. Because until recently Anwesha has been a clear favorite(getting all Sarwottams)of the judges and Aishwariya was lagging behind with Atiuttams. I didn’t like Pritam’s comments either, it’s very demoralizing to a young kid who is trying her best. He could’ve given some constructive advice instead. Although, only advice to Anwesha will be to choose her songs carefully. Also,Pritam is not the first or the last music director to have copied from international music, so give him a break!

I have 2 suggestions
1.There should be a new word in the English language called Aishwarya an adjective to describe any one who sings like my Aish, and the same word can be used as a adverb to describe a performance like my Aish’s performance.
2.In this contest and other future music contests the grades should be Madhyam, Uttam, Atiuttam, Sarvottam, Sartaj Sarvottam, Aishwarya.
Obviously, any singer who gets 3 Aishwaryas consistently will be the winner

Hi,
Watched the video & enjoyed all the singers.Looks like judges are trying their best to keep Vyom in top 3. Prakriti Giri is a good singer too. Judges are showing their favoritism too much.Judges should be encouraging all the singers.
Ashwariya & Anwesha are trained, experienced contestants compare to other contestants in the show.Lets see, who will come in top 3 with them. Vyom or Prakriti ?
Good luck to all singers.

I think AISHWARYA fans are using multiple ids on this forum. Because in every other forum anvesha fans outnumber aishwarya fans by hundreds–each and every foum/blog!!
In Uk, all the Indians, regardless of caste or region,know anu is the best,ash is jut a mess. being powered by corrupt parents, as sweety said, is not a way to reach top spot. But Inidans also should know who is best and vote accordingly. Gujarat is not a fanatic state.IN SOME WAYS IT IS.but not in this matter it isn’t.
gujaratis may be against muslims but are not againts bengalis. Anyway it is surprising that the best cannot win. Ignorant ones, rise above your petty-mindedness.

It appears individal’s personal feelings and emotions have overtaken the rational behaviour and thinking. It is true that man is a rational animal who is different from animals on account of his intellect, thinking power and feelings. We all are rationl animals called human beings.I am personally more sensitive to sufferings and emotional black-mailing of young children. In CHHOTE USTAD programme it is responsibility of the Director Gajendra Singh and the three young judges to ensure that the feelings of the small children are not hurt in any manner . I was glad to observe that of all the persons present at the recording of the episode in which Soniya was eliminated it was PREETAM who started shouting at the director and in very strong words conveyed his feelings to stop the process of elimination as it greatly affected the psyche of innocent young children.He further suggested to end this show and declare all the remaining partipants as winners.Bravo Preetam! DR BISWAS is requested to kindly watch the video of this episode. The other judges Shreya AND Kunal are conducting themselves in dignified manner and are truly asset to this programme.The director is entirely responsible for the content of the show. There is no denying the fact that GAJENDRA’S shows have launched many a successful career in field of playback singing as well as acting.The highly gifted director will please take serious note of the feelings of millions of lovers of this programme and desist from creating unnecessary drama at the point of elimination of a contestant. Time and again I am writing that this is purly a music show and therefore there is no room for histrionics and “RONA DHONA”. There should be good music only .

IT IS DIABOLIC TO PASS COMMENTS ON YOUNG ANWESHA ABOUT HER COMPLEXION. I AM STAYING IN MUMBAI FOR MORE THAN SIX DECADES AND HAVE SEEN MANY TOP SO-CALLED GLAMOUROUS STARS WITHOUT GREASE PAINT. IN MY OPINION ANWESHA AT THIS AGE LOOKS FAR MORE CHARMING AND GLAMOUROUS THAN MANY A TOP ACTORS. IT IS MAGIC OF MAKE-UP MAN TO MAKE ORDINARY FACE LOOK ATTRACTIVE.I HAPPEN TO VISIT TOP MAKE-UP GENIUS MR. GODAMBE’S OFFICE IN JUHU MUMBAI SOMETIME BACK AND I SAW PHOTOS OF ALL TOP ACTRESSES IN HIS OFFICE .HE IS MAKE-UP GURU OF MADHURI DIKSHIT ,AISHWARYA RAI, JUHI CHAWLA, RANI MUKHERJI AND MANY OTHERS.
THE GREAT SINGING STAR KANAN DEVI WAS PROBABLY DARKER THAN ANWESHA AND WAS ALSO NOT BLESSED WITH AS GOOD FEATURES AS THOSE OF ANWESHA. AS A MATTER OF FACT TODAY’S TOP STARS MADHURI, AISHWARYA, KAJOL POSSESS DARK COMPLEXION AND AS FAR AS THEIR TALENT IN SINGING IS CONCERED THEY ARE BIG ZERO .I PREDICT GREAT FUTURE FOR YOUNG CHARMING ANWESHA AS A SINGING STAR SENSATION.

Without any doubt, Anwesha is far much superior than any other contestant of Chhote Ustaad. Only Aishwarya is next to her, but she also is faraway. Anwesha sings every type of song with complete maturity. I will not be surprised if India is lucky to find the next Lata Mangeshkar in the shape of Anwesha.
Besides regularly watching Chhote Ustaad every Friday and Saturday and enjoying listening to Anwesha’s voice, I also had the opportunity of listening to her Bengali song “Mahoyashi” on a website. I could not understand a single word of the song because I do not know Bangali, but the song was so melodious that I had forgotten that I was sitting in my office and was being watched by my office colleagues.
I will be deeply shocked and disappointed if Anwesha does not win the title of Chhote Ustaad. If it happens, I will only blame the Bangalis and the people of Kolkata. While they can come to Eden Garden in huge numbers to watch a cricket match by spending millions of rupees; while they can support Ganguly while he was thrown out from the Indian cricket team – why can’t Kolkatans vote for a deserving child Anwesha for fulfilling her dream.
Come on Bengal and especially Kolkatans, it is your duty that you support your daughter Anwesha. If I being a Pakistani can support her, considering her to be like my real daughter, why can’t you vote for her.
In the end I wish from the core of my heart that may Anwesha win the title of “Chhote Ustaad” and then one day she may become a “BARI USTAAD” as well.

AISHWARYA AND ANWESHA ARE ALMOST EQUALLY TALENTED SINGERS . I AGAIN REQUEST BLOGGERS TO HEAR THEM SING DUET QAWAALI OF FILM “MUGHAL-E -AZAM” WHICH I STILL CONSIDER THEIR GREATEST PERFORMANCE TILL DATE.(EPISODE OF 2ND FEBRUARY) THEY ALMOST EQUALLED IF NOT BETTERED THE STANDARD OF ORIGINAL SINGERS AT YOUNG AGE OF 13/14.
WATCH THAT PERFORMANCE COUPLE OF TIMES TO UNDERSTAND THE OUSTANDING POWER OF VOCAL CHORDS OF THESE YOUNG MAIDENS. GOD BLESS THEM ;BOTH ARE GOOD LOOKING AND ARE HEADING FOR A SENSATIONAL CAREER IN WORLD OF GLAMOUR AND MUSIC

SALMAN FOR ONCE SOUNDED WOUNDED WHEN HE REMARKED THAT AISHWARYA WAS TEN TIMES BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL SINGER. WHICH AISHWARYA BY THE WAY HE WAS REFFERING TO?GOD BLESS YOU SALMANBHAI A GENTLEMAN TO THE CORE -A GREAT HUMAN BEING.

SWEETY, DO YOU HAVE GOOD DOCTORS IN GUJARAT? GO GET YOUR MENTAL CHECK UP DONE. BEFORE YOU PUT ANY ALLEGATION AGAINST ANYONE, YOU SHALL HAVE PROOFS. THE FACT IS ALL THE NON-SUPPORTERS OF AISHWARYA CAN NOT EVEN ACCEPT THAT SHE IS WAY AHEAD OF OTHERS. (EVEN JUDGES HAVE THE SAME TO SAY. AT LEAST TODAY..& WE HAVE SOME 3 OR 4 MORE EPISODES YET TO CHECK THAT). IN THE EARLY PART OF THE SHOW WHEN AISHWARYA WAS NOT GETTING GOOD SONGS TO SING FOR, NO ONE WROTE ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND FOR ONE EPISODE IF SHE GOT A BETTER SONG, YOU CAN NOT EVEN ACCEPT THAT WHT SHE HAS PERFORMED WAS PAR EXCELLENCE! LEARN FROM ‘CHRONIC’ (COMMENT OF 2008-03-09 22:54:17) TO APPRECIATE WHAT IS GOOD. AISHWARYA’S WHOLE FAMILY WHEN ON STAGE PRESENTED THEIR VIEWS SO WELL THAT ANYONE WHO DO NOT EVEN KNOW THEM PERSONALLY CAN SAY THAT THEY ARE HIGHLY CULTURED PEOPLE. HOWEVER, FROM THE LANGUAGE YOU HAVE USED IN OFFERING YOUR VIEWS, ONE CAN EASILY SAY THAT YOU ARE COMING FROM THE SLUMS WHERE PARENTS CAN GET MIXED UP TOO… HBOWEVER, FIRST YOU NEED MENTAL TREATMENT AND THEN SOME MUSIC LEARNING.

Sri,
As Mr. Shantanu writes very correctly in this forum, being technically perfact singer makes a good music teacher.
Unfortunately same falls completely true for dear Anwesha. For being a good singer, Anwesha needs a lot more things than just being technically perfact.
Remember, becoming technically perfact is matter of choice but to become good singer one needs to have a perfact voice quality, attitude, kindness and over and above all, acceptence by mass. Do I need to say who is getting it?

I don`t understand over here that why these Anvesha fans are so biased and understand only loyalty towards one community and DO NOT UNDERSTAND MUSIC. otherwise I m sure they could see what the Judges from the same community could see.I think they are being Fanatics and nothing else. they can`t take one criticism in the right spirit while little AISHWARYA of only 14 years has been doing that. i think that is the sole reason for her FANTASTIC IMPROVEMENT-going far ahead than all. grow up! growing means improving on your own mistakes and moving ahead with the time.
Have you seen any of AISHWARYA supporters putting FAKE and FALSE allegations on others.

Hey Sweety,
Why do you hate Aishwarya’s Dad? C’mon, One to one. I know him personally. Tell me how is he corrupt? How has he hurt you or anyone in any way? I give you this open invitation OR challange to prove yourself and if you are proved right, I will take you to Mr. Majmudar myself. Either prove that he is corrupt or openly take your words back.
At the same time, even if you think or believe beyond doubt that he is corrupt, how does that matter to his daughter? Take your own example, Let us presume that your Mom and Dad are good humans, but check your foul language, So…. It is not mandatory that children of good citizens are going to be good Citizens & Visa Versa !!!!!!

With these 2 songs of 8th March, Aishwarya has shown that she’s not only the best playback singer of the present (her spectacular career is sure to start immediately) but also a great classical singer.
Her playback singing ability was never in doubt from the beginning but in classical singing she was considered slightly below Anwesha. But not any more.
Devkishinji, obviously Salman was impressed by this Aishwarya, our Aishwarya. I don’t know what you’re referring to.

That’s because poor ash hardly has any supporters!! Thiase hwo are, are from her family( not even state) or her powerful lobby. most people love anvu. They think ash is just so-so. many are like her. of they get training from sucha young age, everyone can become like her.
aishwarya will NEVER become aplaybak singer. even salman khan hated her–was so obvious from his face. he told anvu-”you are the best.”

2.how Bhopal became the highest voter for chotte ustaad>no contestant is from bhopal!
3.These are all gimics in which the children have been the pawn.which normal parent will allow their kid to participate in this and avoid school for 4 months.
4.little hindi songs competition, how does it progress a child towards a good singing carrieer.

These are not grammy awwards or disney world music or BBc world music participation> what other past winners have done with their life to become big star.

Let’s not forget it’s a reality show. Every contestant will eventually get eliminated except one, the winner, The Chhote Ustaad. Kids come to these shows knowing this. So when Sonya got eliminated I see no reason for it being interpreted as “Child Abuse”.It’s sad to see these talented kids leave but that’s the reality otherwise there will be no compettition and no losers and definitely no winners . So let’s just enjoy good music and may the best singer win.

Hi Parveen
I totally agree with you. What’s wrong with this guy. He is a physician from India but has no respect for his fellow Indians. And not every indian is from from a village Dr Biswas. You can’t generalize the people from a whole country as child abusers.If you have a point, express it but stop blasting Indians.This is a blog for Indian music lovers so can we just stick to that. We don’t need to know your biodata.

Mr Biswas
First of all you need to learn civic sense first before teaching it to someone else. In my opinion anybody condemning his country and people of his country cannot be called as someone with civic sense by any means. looks like you came from a village thats why to you it seems that anybody who is from india is from a village. And regardig anvesha’s issue of child abuse let me tell you that anvesha is not a 7 or 8 year old child. she is a 14 year old grown up kid. i am not sure whether you have or not seen what simon cowell does to 15-16 year old kids in a reality show in your so called democratic america. What pritam did to anvesha was don any abuse by any means. she was just told to be serious and there is nothing wrong in that.
@ serious
thank you for your support. i really appreciate your comments. Mr biswas seems to be one of those guys who are racist against their own race. rest i cannot say anything here because this is a blog of sophisticated people where people appreciate good music and decent comments. so lets just stick to them.

Mr.Devji,
Thanks for your response. Maybe I’m stupid but I still don’t get what you meant by your original comment. Salman sounded wounded….. Why would Salman be wounded if our Aishwarya sang better than the original?
In this episode, it’s pretty clear that the entire team agreed to give prominence to Anwesha as far as attention from Salman is concerned (this was also mentioned by Abhaas once, probably because Anwesha has a crush on Salman. Fine, I’m not criticising it) That’s the reason Salman was paying so much attention to Anwesha. But even then Salman was forced to acknowledge the greatness of Aishwarya.
This episode is historic for my little gem Aishwarya because she has silenced her critics (true music critics, not the Bengali fanatic critics) and she is beyond compare.
So I humbly request you, Devji, to kindly tell this stupid guy in straight words what you meant by your original comments.
Regarding ‘bombardment by learned persons’ I’d say that those specific comments from DR.A.K.BISWAS were written more in the style of a street thug than a learned person. If you think any number of such comments are going to intimidate me, you have to think again.
Finally it really pains me, Devji, that you are trying to undermine Aishwarya’s performance. Please at least give credit where credit is due. And I thought you were most balanced and impartial.
I also request you to take these comments sportingly.
Thanks

from the very beginning these Judges had praised (even when she was Average, she was given SARVOTTAM) Anvesha so much, it was difficult for her to digest it.I think same is with her supporters. they and Anvesha thought that she was the BEST and no one could come near her. BUT when Aishwarya proved it wrong by constantly performing brilliantly in the last 4 episodes. these supporters suddenly feel threatened and so is the reason for so much on child abuse? I think she is lucky that they pointed out what was lacking in her performance even at this stage in the competition, otherwise no scope on improvement.
AISHWARYA was mostly criticised on all performances and evidently we can see the improvement.More than anything I love her spirit to take criticism in the right spirit and work on it.
I m so HAPPY for AISHWARYA that she showed the world that she is no less.
CHILD ABUSE- we can see IT on these comments mostly put up by educated(i presume so as they use computer) people. They should be told to check their language.

I think you are not staying in India otherwise you would have known SALMAN- AISHWARYA CONNECTION.
I reiterate that Salman khan is a gentleman but sometimes strangely unpredictable and reckless. He is very possessive unlike his other brothers who are more disciplined and less agressive. It is time his family compels him to settle down in life . Only a sober and intelligent girl can co-exist with this erratic genius. Behind steel frame there exists a man called SALMAN one of the greatest philanthropists in BOLLYWOOD film industry.
When Salman told AISHWARYA you performed 10 times better than the original singer(or AISHWARYA RAI’S FATHER VIKRAM GHOKLE IN FILM ‘HUM DIL DE CHUKE SANAM’- I DO NOT KNOW WHO WAS THE ORIGINAL SINGER BUT THE COMPOSER ISMAIL DARBAR EXTRACTED GOOD PERFORMANCE FROM THE SINGER . ISMAIL ALWAYS COMPOSES ORIGINAL TUNES AND ALL HIS SONGS BECOME POPULAR. ISMAIL IS DEDICATED AND HARD-WORKING MUSIC COMPOSER )I just thought about the film’s heroine AISHWARYA .Kindly listen to original composition and compare with that of young AISHWRYA’S performance.As far as AISHWARYA’S talent is concerned she is second to none. I like your balanced views and comments.

Thanks a lot, Devji. It answers my question.
I feel very emotional about Aishwarya (my little Aishwarya, not Aishwarya Rai) When someone slaps my little Aishwarya verbally, I feel like someone slapped me. When someone appreciates Aishwarya’s truly great performance, it makes me happy.

Dear Mr.Sri,
Thanks fr ur comment. I’d like to reply, if I may. Pls bear with me if I’m wrong somewhere.
First, abt this specific song. I’ll confess, I haven’t heard the original (this is an advantage cos I’ve reacted as if for a new song). Why not consider this as a original contribution from Aishwarya? The important factor is the impact of the singing on those hearing it. If the end result of the innovations had been horrible to hear, I’d agree with u. But when it’s sublime and divine sounding it should be acknowledged as such.
There’s nothing wrong in making a song comfortable to sing. The question is whether it’s comfortable for the audience to hear. In this case, it sure was. That’s why she got Sartaj Sarvottams
This performance of Aishwarya is partly the reason why I commented that Aishwarya should be a name in the English and other dictionaries.
Thanks.

Another thing I would like to add: the famous song “Puchho na kaise maine rain bitai – Meri Surat Teri Aankhen” – Manna Dey ; is a copy of a famous Bengali Nazrul Sangeet: “Arunokanti ke go yogi bhikhari…” …
I request you to listen to another one : “ yogi aya” from the movie “ Black and White… ( Sukhbinder Singh and Sadhna Sargam)…. And guess the Raaga….

WHAT A STRANGE!Here someone is neurologist from UK, practicing as physician in USA. Even for fellowship ,one to be a consultant one must pass USMLE, American boards of specialty after 4yers of residency before a neurologist becomes a board certified MD in USA . UK and Canadian MRCP/FRCS, a DIPLOMA NOT a degree, have no reciprocity in USA.
Another said” I am PHD student in UC Davis”
Amazing !!
This site is not a job site that a neurologist or PhD student (on student visa?) can apply .
This site is not a Matrimonial site that someone can give Green card by marriage to stay in US.
Here nobody has nerve problem to get advice from neurologist nor anybody needs tuition from PDH student to write term papers.
Last question remains:

Absolutely agree with you brother.

Dr Biswas,
What are you doing here blogging in this indian Music site? You are too cultured(?) and its demeaning for you to blog in this site because its for INDIAN MUSIC LOVERS and you are a far superior(?) human being. You are not indian, you are an ‘AMERICAN’ so go blog on American idol and leave us alone.

You’r right we should be concentrating more on this program than other personal things.You’re ranking is perfect considering last week’s performances but personallly I think Anwesha is way better than Aishwariya.I think they should be given the same songs to sing so we can decide once and for all.I believe that Anwesha can modulate her voice and has a much wider range than Aishwariya. Aishwarya is an excellent singer too but in my humble opinion I think Anwesha is much better.

I second your thoughts, but lately (maybe its just me) I noticed Anwesha is having some sort of breathing probs. I have noticed that she struggles sometimes to complete the whole sentence of the song!
She should work harder on where to take her breaths rightly without us noticing it

Anwesha does have perect voice quality, has a great attitude and is extremely kind and is definately accepted by the mass, so I don’t know what you’re getting at. Are you trying to say that she is not a good singer?

I think either youneed to wear our glasses or learn to read english!!!! when did i say that i am a PhD student? I said i am a PhD and i am workiung in UC Davis. I didnt tell that because I need a job.I already have one. neither did i tell it because itsa matrimony site.i dont need to go on matrimony website because i am already married. I mentioned that just to clarify because ignorant person like you asusmes that everyone from india is illiterate the same way you assumed everyone lived in village like you.
And I never said anythng against america. i completely appreciate good things about america. My only ire is against somebody who has been condemning indians and india repeatedly on an indian blog site.i can never tolerate this nonsense !!!
Serious, ronnie, deepak thanks for your support.

coming back to music anvesha is my favorite in chotte ustaad. i think she has a better range and more versatile than aishwarya. But aishwarya is very good too. i loved her albela sajan performance in this episode. but i dont think her “chori chori” perfomance desrerved as much praise as she got. if you liste to the original song, sonu has made so may beautiful variations which aishwarya skipped and made he song easy according to her convinience. nevertheless its a very difficult song so she deserves a pat on her back for attemping it quite well.

To answer a question posed earlier in this thread… Anwesha fans feel the need to be defensive, because she never gets votes, even when she is good! I remember when she sang Ami Je Tomar (Mere Dholna), she only came in third place in public voting, when she clearly should’ve been first! It’s completely unjust, that a great talent like her is being ignored by the masses. It’s only when I come to these sorts of blogs and forums, do I notice immense support for her (and rightly so!), but why aren’t they voting!!? Aishwarya is good and her ranking in public voting is totally justified, but so is Anwesha, and she never gets what she deserves in terms of voting. However, I have noticed that for the past two weeks, she has come in third place (not bad for her), and I know Bengali’s are crazy about their homegrown contestants and will eventually come through for her (e.g., Sanchita, Aneek, Anamika) – so I suppose there is hope for her yet. But please, spread Anwesha awareness everywhere, this girl deserves more votes than she is currently getting.

In my opinion Anwesha is way better than Aishwariya.Listen to her voice modulation in Bawaaria re , Mayiya mayia, Mere Dholna and Hum dil de chuke sanam and I can go on and on – it’s unbelievable.She is one of the best singers to have come along in a long long time. Aishwariya is good too but she is not exceptional. She has a breathing problem and more importantly she sometimes can not hold her SUR.Anwesha on the other hand never misses SUR which is the hallmark of a good singer.

Biswas, you need to get a life and if you think being a doctor is all that and Indians are bad people, then look at yourself. You are Indian and you are probably the worst Indian I’ve ever seen. Get off everyone else’s case you imbecile.

stop the child abuse : stop the way you are getting kick out of these poor children humilated publicly and one is pitted aginst the other>get fair system of judgement for merit>give same Music to all, see how they perform >bring outside judges committe who can give secret verdict with their knowledge >stop this public voting and regionalism.
Talk wtih sense.
We have no prejudice who is from where > some children sing Bhajan better some folk ,some rabindra sangeet, some Adhunik etc.sonia’s voice is just different from prakriti .anwesha’s voice is different from aiswyaria, the little boy eliminated (niazi) had a beautiful voice.
so it’s unfair way to judge and eliminate them >i am protesting against that.

Ever since the show began, I have supported Anvesha because I find her technically superior and the most melodious singer of all the children. I was delighted to see her perform so impressively in songs like “Maiya Maiya” and “Khalas” which are so different from the genre where she excels.
Aishwarya, on the other hand, is a contestant whom I have grown to admire more and more as the show progresses. Her voice quality and ‘harkats’ were always wonderful and now she is also capable of making her notes vibrate. Although I still think of Anvesha as the better singer of the two, I am thrilled by the improvement that Aishwarya has made.
If the Grande Finale is between these two, it will be a fascinating contest to watch. I only hope that regionalism and favouritism do not creep in to the judgement.
Best of luck to Anvesha and Aishwarya.

BAD NOISY MUSIC SPOILS YOUR MOOD AND GOOD SOOTHING MUSIC CALMS YOUR NERVES AND TOUCHES YOUR SOUL.
AISHWARYA’S RENDITION OF ALBELA SAJAN AAIYO RE–IS GREATLY APPRECIATED BY VIEWERS AS THIS COMPOSITION WAS BASED ON CLASSICAL RAAGA WHICH IS THE VERY ROOT OF EVOLUTION OF SANGEET IN OUR COUNTRY . IT IS INDEED A PITY THAT WE HAVE FORGOTTEN OUR TRADITIONAL MUSIC AND HAVE STARTED APING POP MUSIC WHICH IS NOTHING BUT NOISE DEVOID OF EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS.
THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF SUCH COMPOSITIONS BASED ON VARIOUS RAAGAS WHICH TODAY’S GENERATION MIGHT NOT HAVE HEARD.
NAUSHAD’S MALKAUS-BASED BHAJAN MAN TADPAT HARI DARASHAN KO AAJ– ALWAYS TOUCHED THE SOUL WHENEVER IT WAS SUNG IN GAJENDRA’S SHOW.SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN’S MORE THAN 50% COMPOSITIONS ARE BASED ON RAAG BHAIRAVI.JAIKISHAN NAMED HIS FIRST CHILD BHAIRAVI AND SHE IS VERY POPULAR IN MUMBAI’S SOCIAL CIRCLES.SHE IS KNOWN AS BHAIRAVI JAI- KISHAN. WHEN SHAAN ASKED ANIL BISWAS ABOUT HIS FAVOURITE COMPOSER AMONG TODAY;S GENERATION HE PAUSED FOR A MOMENT AND ASKED SHAAN WHETHER THERE WAS ANY REAL COMPOSER AT PRESENT . HE FURTHER SAID IT WAS ALL KEY BOARD’S MAGIC.
IF ALL THE MUSIC DIRECTORS PAST AS WELL AS PRESENT ARE ASKED ABOUT THEIR FAVOURITE RAAGA IN SOME INDIAN CONCERT
YOU JUST IMAGINE HOW THEY WILL REPLY:
NAUSHAD:RAAG MALKAUS RAAG SHIV RANJANI RAAG SHUD KALYAN ETC ETC.
SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN:BHAIRVI PAHAADI ETC ETC.
ANU MALIK PREETAM VISHAL-SHEKHAR AND THE REST ALL TOGETHER IN ONE VOICE WILL SHOUT :RAAG ASHUD KALYAN.
BRAVO! AND WE LISTEN TO ALL THOSE ASHUD KALYAN -BASED COMPOSITIONS.

Let me analyse your personality by the comments you have offered. First, it is not child’s falut if at all his/her father is corrupt. Who is not corrut in India. A very miniscule % of people are honest and rest are more or less corrupt. Be it businessman, film personalities,politicians,judges,doctors, engineers ,police, beaurocates et al. So let us leave it at that. Second you have some personal problem with Aish or her family. Please sort it out at your level and not in public domain. By writing such vituperative comments, you are exposing your negative and faulty personality. This forum is for giving your comments about the contestants and not their family. So please abstain from such remarks in future or you will get it in the same coin.
As far as battle btw Aish and Anvesha is concerned , Preetam is biasd for Anvesha, Somebody remember “Helen episode”. Preetam’s comments about Anvesha’s performance were “Frankly I did not like it” and yet he gave her “Sarvotam”. In my opinion both Aish and Anvesha are very good singers but Aish has a definite edge over anvesha as is evident from no of times she has got standing ovation from judges and guests alike.Remember what abheejit and alka said. How many times did Anvesha got such standing ovation!

Dear Devkishan Vyas ji
It is my honour. I love music but am music illiterate. Maybe someday I will find the time to learn music and till then I will enjoy listening.
For any music lover, music is above anything.

MONTY SHARMA’S COMPOSITIONS SOUND ORIGINAL,BUT HE WAS ASSISTED BY SANJAY LEELA BANSALI WHO LIKES MELODIUS MUSIC. BOTH OF THEM WORKED TOGETHER AND THE END RESULT WAS QUITE PRAISE-WORTHY.
AS FAR AS AR REHMAN IS CONCERNED I THINK HE IS OVER-RATED COMPOSER .THOUGH HE CHARGES THE HIGHEST REMUNERATION FOR COMPOSING MUSIC THERE ARE HARDLY HALF A DOZEN HITS TO HIS CREDIT IN HINDI FILMS.
TODAY’S LYRICS ARE NOT AS SIMPLE AND MEANINGFUL AS THOSE PENNED BY LYRICISTS OF BY- GONE ERA VIZ. SHAKEEL BADAYUNI KAIFI AZMI MAJROOH SULTANPURI HASRAT JAIPURI SHAILENDRA GULZAR RAJINDER KRISHIN ETC.
THE COMMON MAN IS NOT ABLE TO PICK UP THE SONG DUE TO COMPLICATED WORDING
JUST RECOLLECT SOME OF THE OLD SONGS WHICH WERE HITS AND EASY TO REMEMBER
1.INSAAF KA MANDIR HAI YE BHAGWAN KA GHAR HAI -NAUSHAD
2.YEH HAWA YEH RAAT YEH CHANDNI–SAJAAD HUSSAIN
3.BAHARO PHOOL BARSAO MERA MEHBBOB AYA HAI—SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN

5.DOST DOST NA RAHA PYAR PYAR NA RAHA—S-J
6.AWAAZ DE KAHAN HAI –NAUSHAD

Once and for all this is a reality show! Someone has to be eliminated every week. And I think all the kids participating come prepared for that.These reality shows have given us a lot of good singers like Shreya Ghosal , Kunal Gunjawala, Monali Thakur (Race songs)etc.
I heard Kunal tried a few times before he finally won. Its A COMPETETION like any other competion and there will be loosers and winners like any other show.I just don’t understand these STUPID comments about CHILD ABUSE by DRAKBISWAS.Child abuse is prevalent and we should flight against it but I just fail to see the relevance to Chhote Ustaad.These kids come to these shows knowing that they are probably going to be eliminated if they are not good enough and thats the name of the game.. I think judges have been very empathatic to the contestants and are very sweet to all contestants. I just don’t understand where this CHILD ABUSE ACCUSATION is coming from? IT has no basis whatsoever

BISWAS,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
First of all its Zubin Mehta not Jubin Mehta.In this reality show we are trying to find a good playback singer for our HINDI movies not the the next grammy winner.Nora Roberts won the GRAMMYS but Anushka never did even being so talented and you think these kids have a chance on an international platform? You’re such a FAKE PERSON! I believe everyone by now knows what your true colors are. DON’T try to portray yourself as very cultured because its obvious you’re NOT.

I for one, completely agree serious, this is a game show
and if the children want to compete then they must be ready to be eliminated if they are not good enough. This has nothing to do with child abuse.

Hey Sweety,
I have been reading all the garbage you have been writing about Aishwarya and her family and I truly agree with some of the above comments that you are crazy. You are showing your true colors by being foul mouthed and abusive. Please refrain from making stupid personal comments about anyones family. if you have nothing encouraging to say to the kids then kindly refrain yourself from making any comments. it is better than your foul mouthed drivel.
Similar comments are meant for Pallavi maybe Sweety by Alias.

Who gave you the info that ECFMG was abolished 30 years ago? It celebraed its 50th anniversary in 2006.http://www.ecfmg.org/2007ib/ibcertnews.html.
USMLE 20 years ago???? you defiently seem to be out of your mind.
now i am having serious doubts over your identity. and by the way you should know that people living in america dont like to be called Dr eventhough they are doctors. people here in america like to be called by their first names. but you the biggest american lover in the world put Dr before your name!!!

Drakbiswas..I would just wonder what you have to say about shows like American Idol? Do you think because the contestants are a couple of years older it’s not child abuse (if you assume Chote Ustad is abusing children)?

Rules
Contestants have to be singers and are not permitted to have any current record deals or talent management agreements (though they may have had one at some point in the past). They must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents eligible to work full-time and, for the first three seasons, had to be 16 to 24 years of age on October 19 of the year of audition. Since the fourth season, the upper age limit was raised to 28 with an earlier cutoff date, August 4, to attract more mature and diverse contestants.
The first five American Idols are from the Southern United States of America (U.S) and the sixth, Jordin Sparks, is from the Southwest. Hicks was the oldest winner at 29, Sparks the youngest at just 17.

I cannot agree with you. Aishwarya is a gifted girl, she is only 14 and has a mellow voice which if developed further will take her places. However she is not the best because Anvesha is much superior to her. The quality of voice, technical precision, and rendition of difficult songs is made much better by Anvesha. Also she is a much more consistent performer.
We should appreciate her as she is the underdog and aishwarya has already been hyped and inflated enough. Trute talent should not lose out.
By sanjaya on Mar 14, 2008 | Reply
For the first few weeks Anwesha sang superbly and nobody seemed near to her. Then her choices of songs became bad and she sang average original songs. As a result she also also did not appear exciting. On the other hand the choice of songs by Aiswarya gradually became brilliant and she appeared better than Anwesha.
In one episode Shreya advised Anwesha to have a smiling face and since then Anwesha is deliberately smiling even if the song is a sad song. As a result words are not coming out properly from her mouth. Anwesha should not listen to anybody. She should close her eyes and sing the songs and the results will be outstanding.
Anwsha is the best and it will be proved in the next episodes.

THERE IS POSSIBILITY THAT EITHER PRAKRITI OR VYOM MAY HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED IN TODAY’S SHOW. THE SURVIVING ONE OF THE TWO CAN CONTINUE FOR ONE MORE WEEK BEFORE THE GRAND FINALE.THIS IS PURELY MY PERSONAL JUDGEMENT.

THE TWO LIKELY CONTENDERS FOR THE TITLE OF CHHOTE USTAD- AISHWARYA AND ANWESHA WILL BATTLE OUT IN FINALS, LIKELY TO TAKE PLACE IN MUMBAI.
THE JUDGES ARE DOING A FANTASTIC JOB WITH THEIR TACTICAL MARKING OF THE REMAINING CONTESTANTS. THIS IS A PATH-BREAKING STRATEGY TO CROWN THE DESERVING TALENT AS CHHOTE USTAD.ANY CONTESTANT GETTING EXCESSIVE SUPPORT DISPROPORTIONATE TO HIS OR HER REAL WORTH VIA SMSS AND OTHER SOURCES WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF BY THE JUDGES GRADING. BRAVO GAJENDRA SINGH AS YOU HAVE FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PITFALLS OF PUBLIC VOTING. ALL THE MUSIC LOVERS REST ASSURED THAT THE BEST TALENT WILL BAG THE CROWN OF CHHOTTE USTAD MAINLY DUE TO PRESSURE FROM THE VIEWERS AND THE EXPERTS AND THE NECESSARY CHANGES IN VOTING SYSTEM IMPLEMENTED BY THE DIRECTOR GAJENDRABHAI AS A RESULT OF THAT PRESSURE.
PREPARE YOURSELF FOR SENSATIONAL BATTLE BETWEEN TWO HIGHLY GIFTED YOUNG PERFORMERS.GOD BLESS THEM.
MY REQUEST TO GAJJI-PLEASE ALLOW BOTH THE SINGERS TO SELECT ATLEAST 3 SONGS OF THEIR OWN CHOICE AND 2 COMMON SONGS TO BE SUNG BY EACH OF THEM . SELECT OLD AS WELL AS NEW SONGS. WAH CHHOTE USTAD-DUNIYA KO HILAKE RAKH DIYA!

These are all predetermined drama.
1.How Mr.Kunal Gunjwala could write sartaj sarvottam on a piece of paper in his pocket from home before seeing aiswyria’s performance.
2.how Bhopal became the highest voter for chotte ustaad>no contestant is from bhopal!
3.These are all gimics in which the children have been the pawn.
4.from little hindi songs competition, how does it progress a child towards a good singing carrieer.
what other past winners have done with their life to become big stars?
Indian Music Industry should stand on its own platform firmly rather than this Bollywood.

I think I can answer few of your questions:
These are all predetermined drama.
1.How Mr.Kunal Gunjwala could write sartaj sarvottam on a piece of paper in his pocket from home before seeing aiswyria’s performance.[Avinash] Very simple, during takes he would have written and kept the pirce of paper in his pocket and to add “excitement” to the air, he said that. If you have taken it literally, then you are wrong!
2.how Bhopal became the highest voter for chotte ustaad>no contestant is from bhopal![Avinash\I don't know!
3.These are all gimics in which the children have been the pawn.[Avinash]I wouldn’t go to that extent, as history has shown that some of the competitors have used these reality shows to be stars!
4.from little hindi songs competition, how does it progress a child towards a good singing carrieer. [Avinash] Because, Hindi/Bollywood market is bigger than any other regional market.
what other past winners have done with their life to become big stars? [Avinash] Sunidhi Chauhan, Shreya Ghosal, Kunal..
Indian Music Industry should stand on its own platform firmly rather than this Bollywood.

Being a bangali…I am biased towards Anwesha….and being a music lover I am more biased toward this wonder girl…..she is undoubtedly better than Aishwarya…..Aishwarya is a good singer obviously…but she need to be more good to compeit Anwesha ….moreover she just “show offff” too muchh….I think she is overmatured and quite fake in behaiviour…and most funny thing is…Anwesha wants to copy her because she thinks that will make her popular like Aiswarya…but she should understand that her simplicity is her greatest asset and should never try to copy aishwarya…..I wish both of the contestant “All The Best”…and ofcourse…want Anwesha to win the contest.
