MONALI THAKUR IS OUT THIS WEEK !!
After brilliant performances by the nine finalists, Antara, Meenal, Monali, Panna, Karunya, Ravi, Sandeep Amey and second time entrant Anuj, the deciding votes were finally in.
The anxiety of the results never seems to diminish as week after week the contestants hope and pray that theirs will not be the name asked to leave the stage.
The show was kicked off with a performance of Tauba Tauba by all the contestants, which managed to cut the tension and relax the atmosphere.
Before the final verdict was announced, the judges were asked who they thought would be voted out.
A common factor in all their predictions was Anuj, who has taken Jolly's place on the show.
`I think it's purely because of his lack of training all these weeks that his talent looks very raw in comparison to the others on stage,` said Farah Khan. She also felt that Sandeep and Meenal had slipped in their performances and could be the ones to leave.
Anu Malik's intuition was that Anuj, Meenal or Antara would lose their grip on the show while Sonu Nigam placed his bets on the boys Anuj, Panna or Ravi.
The real results were once again, not only astonishing but even upsetting for the judges. The three who earned the least votes this week were Monali, Meenal and Karunya.
As the trio stood out from the group on stage, Sonu Nigam asked the channel Sony Entertainment Television to do something about these crazy results.
`I know the public's say is the ultimate decider on this show, but they should know who should be voted in and who should be voted out,` said the almost fiery Sonu Nigam.
The final verdict was declared and Kolkata`s Monali Thakur was the one chosen to leave the show.
The girl from a musical family has been a consistent performer through the show and has always received the support of the judges.
She always chose appropriate songs in the galas, and even experimented with singing a male-voice song, performing really well in one of the rounds. She was last seen on stage singing 'Piya Tohse Naina Lage Re' for which she received accolades from all the judges.
Guest judges Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra too referred to her performance as "fantastic" and complimented her presence in front of the camera.
As Monali left the stage on Tuesday's show, she was assured a chance at playback singing by Anu Malik himself, who believed in her talent from day one.
Monali's farewell to the Indian Idol dream and her friends was marked by her heartfelt performance of Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna at the end of the show.
