No elimination on Sa Re Ga Ma Pa

[ilovetv]

For the second straight year, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa will have three finalists. With no elimination taking place this week, Vaishali Made, Shoumen Nandi and Yashita Sharma will contest for the coveted Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2009 title at the finals which will probably take place on 24 January.




Talking about the action that took place yesterday, a little birdie from the set says, “There was no elimination yesterday. Himesh Reshammiya thundered that if any one is eliminated today then he’ll quit the show. He felt that all the three contestants were equally brilliant that day and so it will be unfair to evict anyone. When Himeshji speaks, everyone listens. The two other mentors Adesh Srivastava and Pritam agreed with Himesh and thus it was decided that there will be no elimination. As a result there will be three finalists.”

In another action of the day, Jagjit Singh and Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia were the special guests on the ghazal special show. The two eminent artistes were highly impressed with the three singers. In the next three episodes, the show will be shot in the native city of each of the three finalists. Thus fans in Mumbai, Kolkata and Delhi will get a chance to be up close with Vaishali, Shoumen and Yashita respectively.



As per sources, Deepika Padukone is tipped to be at the grand finale which will take place in Mumbai. The channel is also trying to woo Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle to grace the final. It’s also buzzed that the channel was trying to have the final at the Gateway of India but security concerns may be an issue.
