Vishal Dadlani admits: 'They Cheated'

Thanks to an alert regular on this blog, we now have the first reaction from Raja Hasan's mentor Vishal Dadlani on the entire rigging and fixing issue by Zee TV and Saregampa.

In an Orkut scrap conversation, a user Smiti asked Vishal the below:

Hi Vishal ji, When will we see you and Shekhar Ji again on TV?…I was so sad when Raja lost infact I cried a lot , but am so happy that he has got good mentors like you plz send my wishes to Raja as well .

Vishal, using his official Orkut profile, in turn responded with the following one-liner:

Yeah, they cheated, but I still feel like we won!

This is obviously big news, as it comes from a composer duo who have been extremely diplomatic on the show.

Now, why did Vishal really go on to make these comments which he knew would be open to the entire world to view? Is this an info leak that has been meticulously planned?

In all this is the third person from the Saregamapa show who has now spoken out against the fixing by Zee which was managed by Ashish Kaul personally. First, it was Ismail Darbar, whose comments have been well documented. Next, it was Mussarat Abbas himself, who did admit the same in a telephonic conversationto Padma. And Now Vishal himself.

More proof, guys, more proof. Who's next in line to speak out the truth?
