Amey date was also the runner up of Saregama before participating in Indian Idol..way back in 95-96..
Recycling is old
Amey Date was with monali in that season of Idol. He came upto the top 4, while monali was eliminated earlier.
Years later….. he takes part in Rising Star where Monali is the judge!
Look at the quirk of fate! He was more talented than Monali. Monali is another auto tune product, she sings horribly on stage.
His Idol elimination sparked a fury, ( judges walking out etc… dramas were on even then) he was so popular!
But, once in RS he had admitted that he had fallen into bad habits & hence lost out on all those years after Idol.
There were great expectations that he will win RS. His performance on Chunar & Tum hi ho were absolutely mind-blowing. But he didn’t win RS either.
Sad. He never got the deserved recognition.
Do read his interview during his RS days. He talks about II & says ‘
‘Nothing clicked’ after that.
