Gajji has done the biggest mistake again.. First of all, bringing wild card entries at this stage is one strategical mistake by Gajji..

The contestants will get disappointed as first they are said, they are in top 5 and now after including 2 contestants in wild card, they will be known to be in top 7 and not top 5.. Now if those in the actual top 5 get eliminated, it will be said that they were in top 7 and not top 5.. Isnt it unfair for contestants?? Because being in top 5 is the biggest achievement one will consider.. What is the answer Gajji going to give to the contestants???

Moreover, the timing he has chosen to telecast the wild card entry is not going to work out.. With Indian Idol's grand finale today, none of them will watch the wild card entry.. Thus, the TRP will fall very badly for this episode.. Why did Gajji choose this slot or is it that the channel house has given him only this slot for this wild card episode??? 😕

One important point I would like to raise - How is the voting going to be for the next round?? The voting lines closes today at midnight and the wild card entry round will be telecasted tonight.. So, how is the elimination going to be?? I am totally confused 😕 Are they going to include the wild card entry for voting? Are they going to eliminate one contestant and in top 4 they will add the 2 wild card entry making it 6??? 😕 Will not that be unfair on the contestant who will get eliminated next week

I feel really sad for all the contestants.. Gajji, please dont play with the future of these contestants!!!

Selection in the wild card round is by a jury of musicians.

But I never touched on the point that wild card round is by jury or public.. Either its by jury or public, its unfair to the contestants is out I am saying...

Anu ji, the pupose of wild card round is a tactical move by Gajji so that he can avoid his final getting clashed with his rival show. Since both the rival shows end shortly he wants cash in on the viewer interest to turn towards his child & loosen their pockets to send SMS to make up some of the lost revenue due to low TRP.

To elongate his show he just needed an excuse, so the wildcard idea is thrust upon by the judges who are actually speaking Gajji's badly written script, trying to make a fool of the viewers into believing that they are doing a great favour to them.

Gajji should be appreciated for his tactical acumen & shrewd business sense which he uses to the fullest extent to stump his rivals.

Is it necessary to think about strategical mistake of Gajji where Abhas couldn't reach the top five? Is it really the actual top five what we have got now?

I agree. The idea of bringing the contestants back is not a good idea. He wants to bring Toshi back. This is not fair to the ones who made to top 5. Although I prefer Abhaas & Arshpreet over Ishmeet and Sumitra (Apology to their fans, but this is my opinion).

I agree with you.... but He made the rule of winning by public votes .... why change now to musicians? to prove his original concept wrong??..... and ones he gets the top 5 of his choice, will he go back to public voting????? What if after bringing back a contestant of HIS choice, we loose a better singer? It will be not good if in this hoopla, a good singer eg Abhilasha or Harshid get voted out😡

Anu..I have had a change of heart too.. I was not in the favor of eliminating Toshi for over 25 votes but I also thought that this wildcard round would have happened earlier in the contest rather than at this critical stage. So this week, whoever gets out, that poor chap doesnt even get a chance to compete for a 2nd chance like the other eliminated contestants did? This all reminds me of how Debojit got back and then there was no turning back from there...Its injustice to the top 5 and I support ya there.

I also agree that this is just being done for popularity and TRPs gain. But it may play havoc with someone's career and that can't be taken lightly at all..

Cheers,
Sana~

I agree with Anu. I was thinking the same what would happen to next week's elimination. That person will neither be in wildcard round nor in team. Im hoping they would not do elimination next week.
As for all the Toshi and Abhaas fans, that could happen to them even after wildcard entry.
There is a higher chance the wildcard guy/girl can reach top because this time Janta will vote crazy for that person, whereas non wildcard kids will be neglected.

Now that we know its public voting which is again being used to bring back those contestants who got eliminated via public voting itself, what do you have to say about this vanajaakshji 😳

I seriously think something is wrong with Gajji. I guess he is stressed up due to work pressure of many shows going on side by side and also the pressure of gaining the TRP.. He better should take sometime break and relax himself so he can bring another good show after planning it out properly!!!
