I'll keep an eye on Laisel Rai, the runner up in Taare Zameen Par.
She also sings other than Neha Kakkar songs :)
May be a dark horse for a strong finish.

I have liked her so far - as I said better than Neha 🤣. Let’s see how she handles non-neha numbers. Her voice has a fresh appeal

I watched both episodes of the final auditions.

My main takeaway is that the standard of the contestants is getting weaker with each passing season. From the highs of Ankona Mukherjee, Nishtha Sharma, Sneha Shankar in Season 1 to Mohammad Faiz, Aryananda Babu, Rituraj etc. in Season 2, we are down to Atharva Bakshi and Shubh Sutradhar none of whom are at the level of those mentioned before them .

I found most of them unfinished products and not specially talented. Earlier Seasons saw more prepared contestants.
Of the lot Atharva is the most prepared but the vast majority have been selected for singing + some additional quality that the makers feel will drive TRPs. Singers like Master Aryan and Nishant Gupta may develop into something special later but may flounder in the show if they are challenged outside their comfort zones.

In a field like this, the winner will emerge based on the popularity of the contestant and the soft power of the captain. So, which contestant gets which Captain may influence final results, especially in a close contest.

At this time I am personally not drawn to any contestant and will wait for a few more episodes to decide if the show is worth watching though the season. I watch kids shows to identify future talent mainly amongst the girls (the boys are all hit and miss at this age), and sadly none of those selected have impressed me till now.

Havent watched season 1. Hence the benchmark for me is Faiz, Rituraj & Sayisha

By the way wiki now only states contestants. NOT in whose team they are.

So hopefully what I posted yesterday about 5 contestants with whose team they are in now is deleted

So let's pray Arthave and Vaishnavi are in either Arunita or Pawandeep's team

Is Laisel from another show?

Also there was another boy who participated in SRGMP with Atharva and came here too...forgot his name...did he not get selected?

For me also from season 2 Faiz, Rituraj and Sayisha and I watch season 1 too and yes Ankona, Nishtha, and Sneha had set the benchmark in season 1.

Why captains are needed in this show SS? why can't it be like Indian idol where are are no captains or teams??

Captains are mentors? if yes, then there are 3 professional renowned mentors in this show. So why so many mentors and only one bevakoof judge?

Will the captains perform with the contestants this season too like previous seasons?

.

Hope not. Singing wise captains will over shadow the contestants especially Salman and Danish with high pitch singing and Neha will go ga ga. As if the contestant gave a good performance.

If it happens, then I would prefer captain singing with other teams contestants, NOT with contestant from his/her team.

She is a megalomaniac surrounded by boot lickers who give her daily bouquets to protect her from our brick bats.

All street smart children they've realised she needs to be buttered up to get the work done. Item no is called "Guru Maa" by Vaishnavi, Laisel only sings her songs and she is discussed in Chandigarh, Gupta claims to have become fearless because of her suggestion of spikes, Shantanu calls her Nehurita and they all have passed with flying colours !

Reality shows are meant for polishing and honing your inner talent to gradually raise your graph otherwise participants like Ahir , Priti Bhattacharjee would never exist.

You will have to admit Ahir is selected on the basis of pure talent no dramatics or buttering and above all a big language barrier at the age of 7 only.

Finished products are there only to win.
