In continuation of the previous post of Chotte Ustad
There is no second judgment that Anwesha is the unsurpassed candidate for the Chotte Ustad title. Howsoever, even Star Plus is bountiful by giving more exposure for Aishwariya, the end result has to be that Anwesha of Kolkatta will bag the crown. Her code number is 9 for the voting lines, which itself is a unambiguous clue that she is the obvious winner, as numerologically 9 is a very powerful number compared to 11 of Aishwsariya. The precise talent, correct aptitude, flair, endowment and above all, the right contestant has to win ,and that is Anwesha.
The pre-eminent and the most greatest part I like about Anwesha is that all along with persuasive and credible singing, she possess down to earth intrinsic worth, a quality which is personified in her body language, perhaps she got it genetically from her mother who always keeps a optimistic, buoyant and positive smiling face even when Aishwariya is being praised ;dissimilar to Aishwairya’s mother who makes unconcerned and undaunted facial expressions when Anwesha is praised. What I mean to communicate is that Anwesha’s naive and raw qualities are too personified in her singing capabilities. I am stressing the point again that Anwesha is the best gifted sweet melodious singer and so please help her win the title.

Kya aap Paanchvi pass se tez hain cavalcade is running from city to city auditioning for the apparent contestants for the show. As so many general public are registering for the auditions, the selection team is in a huge impasse over categorization of the challenger profiles.
The consequence of the on-air and off-air promotion is so marvellous that audience from different backgrounds right from doctors to actors have come to the audition to involve oneself as contestants on Paanchvi Pass.
Bhopal and Bangalore saw lakhs of aspirants requesting to meet Shah Rukh Khan or get his immediate look thinking that he has come personally for the auditions; although SRK didn’t travel himself for the same.
In Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata populace waited for hours outside the audition centers to take Paanchvi pass test and make some fast money; especially with the prize money of 5 crores.
The genuineness will be at last tested on Kya aap paanchvi pass se tez hain in Star Plus commencing from 11th and 12th April, 2008 in the first instance.

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.

Serial kisser Emran Hashmi reported to have got infuriated on the stages of Star Plus Chotte Ustad. While he has giving performance along with the host and the contests of the show, a lady from the viewers gallery came up on the stage and kissed him. Although everybody in the first instance enjoyed on what was really happening, but the Judge of the show Pritam got enraged and asked the lady who is she really? But there seemed to be no rejoinder on the lady’s expression and she unrelentingly sat on her seat chewing a gum. Can’t forecast anything, as to whether the scene had taken place routinely or the lady was remunerated to do the action for attainment of TRP for the show. The episode will be telecasted on Saturday the 1st March, 2008.
Kazauti Zindaki Ki, Star Plus has finally bid good bye, after running over 7 years, the last episode to be telecast on 28th February,2008. The main leading characters, i.e. Anuraj Basu, Prerna and Komilika are dead and Mr Bajaj has gone mad in the love of Prerna. Prem’s originsl wife Palchim is also dead and he is back with his first love Devki. So with that, the long exaggerated and melodramatic KZK has gone with the wind.
The characters Kumkum and Sumit of serial Kumkum in Star Plus is also dead and they will appear as another character in the reincarnation later. So with that the love scenes flanked by Kumkum and Sumit will also be halted.
The host of weekly show Kaho Na Yaar He in Star Plus is changed from Karn Patel to Aditya Narayan. This is likely to improve the TRP of the show as Aditya has much screen presence than the earlier host Karen.

If tax figures are to be believed, King Khan is a bigger king of the marketing world too.
 
A major share of his advance tax money has gone into paying for his income from endorsing a swerve of products and other sources, which is a whopping amount of Rs.270 million. Sources in the advertising agency for which the superstar has worked divulged that his income from endorsements fetches him Rs.1.5 billion ($38 million) a year, the highest for any Indian advertising “model”.
Amitabh Bachchan does more endorsement that King Khan, but his annual endorsements do not cross Rs.1.2 billion.
King Khan will continue to hold this position for more years as he has a strong threshold in the Bollywood compared to many others stars as there is no one yet who can opponent his magnetism.
In the current fiscal, his earnings from this source may go a little above Rs.1.5 billion as he has been made brand ambassador of more products - and more are waiting, the sources added. His movie does not fetch him more than 50-60 million per film.
A big large piece of his income from outside Bollywood in the current year also accrued from hosting STAR Plus’ “Kaun Banega Crorepati” quiz series for which he received Rs.10 million per episode.
King Khan received a profit of Rs. 400 million on his home production Om Shanthi Om when he sold the right to Eros International for whopping Rs. 750 million whereas his original expenditure was only Rs. 350 million. Rs. 50 million was the fees which he gave himself for working as hero in that movie, which is not included in the profit of accounts.
King Khan does not augment his fees unlike his contenders. It is implicit that he is not avaricious on this part. Even though his latest movie OSO is a super duper hit, he does not intend to increase his fees. That’s the star excellence he has, and that’s why he is victorious.
“Shah Rukh chooses his movies carefully. First, the subject matter must appeal to him and, if it does, his opting to star in the movie would largely depend on the credibility and antecedents of the producer and the director,â€said an executive of the star’s production banner, Red Chillies Production.
In disparity, Shah Rukh behaves like a ’star’ when he shoots for TV commercials. There he refuses to negotiation on anything, particularly on his price. “Why should I compromise? TV commercials are what they are – commercials, laments the Badshah
“Had the industry not put me in a position where I am today, would the companies have chosen me to be their brand ambassadors?” he asks.
Is King Khan, then, robbing Peter to pay Paul? As one advertising agency executive put it: “He is, but his breaking and entering seem like a communal deal.”Â

Kaho Na Yaar He in Star Plus was launched last Friday, the host being the hero of Kasturi, Karen Patel, a.k.a one of the contestants of Nach Baliye-3.
I would say it is of the spurious programme, atleast to be aired on Friday prime time. Fridays being weekend, people like to stay indoor and watch constructive and functional programmes like Nach Baliye and Star VOI etc. Not a soul would like to squander one hour before the tube watching a lacklustre, dull and unexciting programme like Kaho Na Yaar He. The host has no screen charisma and no fling in his channel of communication. You don’t feel like hooking to the TV.  The contestants they brought in the fist time was incongruous. Sonu Nigam was abstemious and sober; he too was trying to be over-hyper, but Mallika Sherwat was atrocious, who does not know even kindergarten maths.
Earlier weekends were thriller, when programmes like Nach Baliye and VOI used to air. There was no probability that at least people like me used to go out for outing and all with the family. Now other then yawning and surfing the TV we have no alternative.
This Friday they invited Ronit Roy and Gautami a.k.a. Tulsi of Kyoki Kabhi Sass Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. I don’t know what made Tulsi to come in a mini frock, viewers are used to see her in Gujarati sari and grey hair, for a family show she should have alteast draped in a sari or some other full dress. Tulsi was looking dreadful and appalling.
The questions put up to the contestants are also dim-witted, bizarre, illogical and foolish. There is nothing entertaining or captivating to analyze or pay attention.
On the whole, the show is an immense failure and disappointment to many. Star Plus must pull out the programme and in its position they should embark on some other pleasant and enjoyable programme.

Kasuti Zindagi Ki will run on-air for some more time with some other gizza pitta episodes, it is learnt. Earlier the serial was going off-air by 17th January. May be Prerna grandma might have requested Ekta Kapoor that now that her divorce proceedings are filed in the court, she may require lots of money to battle the case, hence the show might be extending.
The grand finale of Jhoom India (Sahara One) will be held on 18th January,2008 with Varun-Akriti and Sachin-Madhushree. Both of the jodis Varun and Sachin are awful singers, so henceforth versatile singers like Sonu Nigham and Abhijeet can sit home sulking ,as actors are passionate towards singing too.
Amul Star Voice of India, Chotte Ustad, is turning out to be a good show It is a musical reality show which will find out and launch the most excellent young singing talent from the world of music. Adolescents with dreams of stardom will prove their spirit on this platform. To uncover the real Voice of India, aptitude from diverse corners of the nation will be selected and judged by some of the most honoured names in Indian music industry – extremely talented singers Shreya Goshal and Kunal Ganjawala and music director Pritam and hosted by the talented Voice of India challenger Abhaas. Young singers like Jayant and Anwesha will be an enormous detonation to Bollywood music.
K for Kishore is a only one of its kind, a music reality show in Sony TV. It is a programme with 12 contestants, challenging and aiming at being the voice closest to that of Kishore Kumar. The judges for the show are popular music director & singer Bappi Lahiri who knew Kishoreda as a friend and musician, singer Sudesh Bhonsale, who completed all Kishoreda’s incomplete film songs after his death. It is different from most reality shows, here the judges and studio audiences will have the vital say in the contestants’ headway to next round. So far the show did not take off much- until in the last episode lady singers from previous Indian Idol contest sang with the male singers. That gave a boost to the show. Now it is understood that things are not in good twist between the two hosts Babul Supriyo and Rajeshwari. Rajeshwari, incidentally is the wife of Varun(who is a final contestant for Jhoom India, Sahara One).
Sapna Baabul ka…Bidaai , Star Plus is again turning out to a pretty good serial, which can be watched by the full family unit as it is very clean and the storyline is something similar to film Vivah. As it is extremely dissimilar to other saas bahu stories, audience don’t mind hooking to the small tube for watching it. The serial has reached an ultimate high as it records a high TRP of 5.4 last week, and has even surpassed the ratings of the ever popular K serial KyunKi Saaa Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.. To add twist to the life of the main central character Ragini , played by Parul Chauhan, she learns to dance and joins a dancing institute run by the new entry Sadia Siddhiqui. Sadia was last seen in Saat Phere and is seen on television after a long break.

As Everyone Knows Rakhi Sawant on Tuesday filed a criminal complaint against Star Plus channel, alleging them of cheating after she lost in the finals of reality show Nach Baliye 3.(read related article under this category on bestdesi)
Star Plus in turn has rejected the charges of malpractice and called the whole fiasco as nothing but just a publicity stunt by Rakhi. They even refused to comment on the police case filed as claimed by Rakhi.
Mr. Keertan, Executive Vice-President & General Manager, Star Plus says, “Currently we have not received any communication either from Rakhi or from Police. We feel this is just a publicity stunt by Rakhi just like all other publicity stunts. We would not like to comment until we receive a clear communication.†Mr. Keertan also cleared the allegation of the faulty voting system saying, “We have not done anything of the sort. She is alleging lot of things, throwing a lot of allegations in the air, but where is the evidence to prove any of these allegations?
Tomorrow anybody in the street can charge anything on anybody. Without any evidence or proof, you just cannot speak out.â€
Seeing the manner in which the controversial star, Rakhi has gone all out, the channel feels that this is more of a case of a sour looser. “See, till she made it to the finals and other couples were getting eliminated, everything was right. So what happened now? Essentially we would say it’s a simple case of Grapes are sour theoryâ€, says Mr. Keertan.
What Do u Say Friends Is this really a case of ‘ Grapes are sour ‘ Or What Rakhi stated is Correct ?
