Bappi Da’s last week announcement of quitting the show (because of Mauli’s exit), was the talk-of-the-lip for many. While there was one side commenting about the lack of an X-factor on the show, due to Mauli’s exit, there were others who told us that it was very wrong on Bappi Da’s part to make such a statement. After all, Sumedha remains and she is still a strong and a better contender.
Whew! This always happens with us. When any of our gems exit the stage, there is a huge uproar among their fans. And trust us when we tell you guys, that each of our stars wish that they could personally come and thank each of you. After all, it’s because of all the love and support from you guys that they are here.

Achaa, last week we had coloured up the stage, with our stars dressed in the colour-fullest of colours. This week, we decided to do the opposite. We went Black and White! A li’l secret: our designers almost had a nightmare, wondering how to dress up whom with just black-and-white!!

The show opened with “Bholi surat dil ke khotey” from the movie “Albela”. While our stars synced to the tunes with their voices, we put our feet up and enjoyed the version. And it was such a treat to see all looking so colourful in black and white. Our designers had sure done a bright job (pun unintended).

Amanat was the number one this week and also the reason for the first debate on the show (chuckle chuckle). After his performance Himesh ji and Shekhar were on mode-argument about how good his performance was. And before things could boil any further, Ismail ji intervened and settled the matter. His say: praise is something that could either inspire someone to reach the top or fall flat on the face.

When Poonam took the stage, Ismali ji opinionated that she, and not Amanat, should have been the number one. To this our petite Poonam replied that Amanat was like a brother to her, so his number one status was more of a pleasure than bother to her. How sweet can that be!

While Aneek went against Himesh ji’s will and sang a special song as a dedication to his love, Sumedha was rated as the underdog of the show. Raja apologised to Himesh ji for his behaviour last week, upon which he insisted that it was a matter of the past and Raja should hence close the issue. As Raja performed, one could see the sadness on Mussarat’s face – for by then, all knew it was he who was eliminated.

Like the start, the show too ended with a debate between Himesh ji and Vishal. 
While Himesh ji felt Raja did not sing well but stayed on because of his fan following, Vishal thought otherwise. In the midst of this, Bappi Da voiced his disappointment about how Mauli was eliminated, despite earning full marks. The argument could have gone on forever hadn’t Ismail ji played the peacemaker (again!) Yalgaar ho Ismail ji.
