But I have 3 conditions:<BR/><BR/>1. Bring classical-based rounds into the competition. The so-called classical forays by participants are lame and the useless judges keep applauding sub-par renditions of the fast-fast tarana bols of "laagaa chunarii me.n daag"<BR/><BR/>2. Throw out useless judges (e.g. Javed Akhtar who is partisan, is embarrasingly sexist, knows nothing about music but pretends to, over-uses "talaffuz" just because he thinks he can say it correctly and is generally a royal pain in the...) and bring in good ones. Sonu Nigam was the best so far.<BR/><BR/>3. In addition to paying 1 crore (or whatever the current stakes are) to the winner, distribute 1 crore among, say, 10-20 excellent but poor classical musicians. Yeah, yeah, you can have your SMS votes for that, but candidates have to be screened by us.Chetan Vinchhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12644552524848971107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-476496854441530272.post-28505416207795692332008-12-24T13:04:00.000+05:302008-12-24T13:04:00.000+05:30Aha, ain't we getting famous ;)!Aha, ain't we getting famous ;)!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-476496854441530272.post-13616488569869312502008-12-23T15:09:00.000+05:302008-12-23T15:09:00.000+05:30Dear Sir/MadamAllow us to introduce ourselves.
