Only three contestants were left for the final up till yesterday for the Amul Star Voice of India, Chotte Ustad.
But during the latest non-telecast shoot, Prakriti Giri has been eliminated from Amul Star Voice of India-Chhote Ustaad. Everyone first deliberated that this 12-year-old girl from Darjeeling would tag along the route of Indian Idol 3 winner Prashant Tamang as she continued her balanced scramble in the show, making it to the top five. But dissimilar to Prashant, Prakriti failed to grasp enough votes from the audience which would have saved her from the elimination round. The elimination episode is yet to be telecast and will be aired this Friday.
While liked by the judges, Prakriti faced callous opponents in the form of Aishwarya from Ahmedabad and Anvesha Dutta from Kolkata. In all the voting episodes, Prakriti managed to confine sufficient amount of votes to stay in the battle. She also made a record of sorts by securing the highest number of votes in all the episodes.
Nevertheless, last week, Aishwarya beat her to the top smudge with the uppermost number of votes. I see Aishwarya as queen of the show. She knows how to catch the fancy of the crowd as she is a unadorned superb singer in accurate sagacity and consider it is all about promotion. If one is not marketing the capacity then I am afraid one might gap at the rear. Full marks to the Hon’ble judges, as they have made their target clear to all of us. Now Anwesha have to substantiate herself to choose the popular song. But in spite of all the dramas and political views, it is better if she ponder on her singing only. Adesh precisely said; mike & camera don’t lie & of course when Pritam said, Anwesha is Anwesha. I think it means Anwesha is a brand and a class apart.
Not only India but the total world is behind you to witness the historic moment when history will be created on the Small screen as our Anwesha will be crowned Chhote Ustaad on 5th April ’08.
I am sorry, Aishwariya, I don’t see you in the crowning glory. You lack behind something, which is beyond me and my Team to articulate. Actually we see Anwesha as a full package. She has unfussiness, beauty, exquisiteness, traits, endowment, down to earth outlook, tremendous throw of voice, appropriateness of her voice to many heroines and above all stupendous singing capabilities.
May I take this opportunity to request you all to kindly support Anwesha whole heartedly by sending maximum number of votes to her so as to enabling her winning this competition.
It becomes incumbent upon us to back and support right talent and that is only ANWESHA.

Year 2008 is a leap year.
45 BC: Emperor Julius Caesar declares the last day of February as Leap Year Day, thus out of four, jumps it to three. Until that February 30th was the last day of the last month of the year, that’s why he picked this date.
4 AD: Emperor Caesar Augustus also edits the fault in Leap Years. The month of August is named after him. Also steals the last day of February so that August has full 31 days. Now February has 29 days in Leap Years.
1582: Pope Gregory XIII, moves the end of the year to December 31st, and makes century years leap years if they are divisible by 400. (So 2000 is a leap year, but 1900 was not.) He moved the end of the year back two months so that Easter would occur in the spring.
Some leap year birthdays.
- 1468 Paul III, last Renaissance pope, 1534-49
- 1468 Pope Paul III, Italian Clergyman
- 1896 Morarji Ranchhodji Desai - 6th Prime Minister of India from March 24, 1977 to July 15 1979. At 83, he was the oldest Prime Minister of India. (died in 1995)
- 1904 Rukmini Devi Arundale, Indian dancer and founder of Kalakshetra (d. 1986)
- 1984 Adam Sinclair, Indian Hockey player
Leap year myths

Norway’s Henriksen siblings, were born on three consecutive Leap Days in the 1960s, as recorded by the Guinness Book of World Records.

- Both, Karan-Amita and Kashmera-Krushna deliver marvellous performances but, the strength of the competition grows when Rakhi-Abhishek dance like there was no tomorrow. A brilliant dance notion became awfully shocking with Rakhi’s wardrobe malfunction as choli she is wearing opens halfway through the performance exposing her entire back. However, realizing that this dance was her only chance to make it to the finals, she does not stop. She hold on to her choli and completes the dance.
- The symptoms of wardrobe malfunction had occurred previously too in India with models during their ramp walk. Carol Gracious and Najar Khan are a few examples whose tops were dropped during ramp walk. Rumourmongers observed it as a premeditated one as a lot of models do these types of strategy to get excessive media hype.

came as no surprise when Shimit Amin’s Chak De! India, a gritty tale of
Indian women hockey players that also starred 90 Australian players and
over 9,000 Australian extras, won the Best Film Award at the 5th
Australian Indian Film Festival gala night in Sydney on Thursday.
Shimin also thanks Australians for accepting to lose in the final match
in the film. “They were gracious and sportsmanlike in their defeat.”
The Sydney festival, which has writer and director Yash Chopra as its
patron, is attended by over 40,000 people each year. This year’s
screenings include Cheeni Kum, Dhoom 2, Eklavya, The Namesake and Laaga
Chunari Main Daag.
Indian heartthrob Akshaye Khanna received the Best Performance Award

the first time at the Museum of Contemporary Arts, situated on the
Harbour foreshore overlooking the iconic Opera House.
The awards were chosen by an esteemed group of Australian film critics,
including Peter Thompson (Showtime), Margaret Pomeranz (ABC TV At The
Movies), Nell Schofield (Channel 9 Sunday Show), Marc Fennell (Triple
J), Adrienne McKibbons (Metro Magazine) and Ian Taylor (ABC TV).
Back home, Chak de! India has won applause from audiences and critics
alike. “I am encouraged to do something different. Chak de! India has
been great for Indian audiences at home and abroad,” Amin said.
