Abhijeet Sawant gets part refund from builder

Abhijeet Sawant, the first Indian Idol, has gained some relief at last. Builder Sunil Bagaria, to whom he had paid Rs35 lakh as advance for a 3BHK flat in Vile Parle that he eventually decided against buying, has agreed to return his money after almost a year.
Bagaria has given him a cheque for Rs10 lakh. For the rest, Bagaria has promised to pay the singer Rs1 lakh every month for 25 months.

Sawant confirmed receipt of the cheque. "But we will be able to encash it on Monday," he said. "Only after getting the cash in hand will I believe that I have got something."

Sawant said he had had enough of chasing the builder for his money and so agreed to the deal. "He has given me an overdraft of Rs25 lakh and every month I have to deposit a cheque for Rs1 lakh." He warned, however, that if any of the cheques bounced, he would file a complaint against the builder. Bagaria was not available for comment despite repeated attempts

Excitement and freshness has died down in Indian Idol

Amit Sana who lost to Abhijeet Sawant in the finals of 'Indian Idol 1' is back with a new album 'Yaadein'. The Bhillai boy says he wants to concentrate on his album and then he will think of playback in a real way. Let's read what Amit has to say about his album and other things.

Q. First of all, we will like to know about the album.....
A. The name of the album is 'Yaadein'. The music and lyrics have been given by different musicians and lyricists. The album is very romantic, I feel. It has eight songs out of which five are original and three are remixes.

It has all moods of love. One song in the album is a little Arabic. I feel the youngsters will be able to relate to the songs.

Q. What is the theme of your album? Going by the glimpses of the video it looks a little sad.....
A. (Stresses) No, it is not sad at all. It is more on the emotional side. It deals with the relation of the boy and girl on the emotional side when they miss each other, the songs deal with the different aspects of love not only the sad part.

Q. The video of your album looks classy; we will like to know who is behind it and what was your thought process while deciding on this type of video?
A. There was a song of Enrique Iglesias, 'Somebody's me' that came recently, I listen to him a lot and we were planning to make a video with a Latin look because my skin tone is dark.

We were planning a similar look for our video and the mood of this song. 'Yaadein' matched and we made this video. The video is directed by Raj Pindulkar. We had many ideas, but finalized this concept.

Q. What do you say about 'Asian Idol'? Was Abhijeet Sawant's choice correct?
A. See, 'Asian Idol' was a program where all the winners from different Asian countries were invited to participate.

Here they had planned a competition between the three winners of 'Indian Idol', but some how the competition could not be held due to date problems. So, they send the first winner Abhijeet.

Q. What do you think is the reason that the benefits reaped by the three the finalists of first 'Indian Idol' got is more than that of the winners of 'Indian Idol- 2 and 3' ?
A. This year the response has been very good and everybody is getting benefited.

I would say that 'Indian Idol' had started that year and every body was eager and there was a lot of suspense but after that many shows on the same pattern came and the excitement level of the audiences died down as all the shows were following almost the same format and there was no freshness.

And it is always said that the first one makes a special impact and is not comparable.

Q. Will you like to tell us about the songs of the album?
A. As I said, the album has eight songs of which five are original and the other three are remixes of the originals..

'Yaadein' with music by Sufian and lyrics by Hanif Sheikh has a painful feeling.'Woh ho Tum' depicts a healthy relationship where they are missing each other. 'Khalish' deals with misunderstanding, where both the boy and girl are missing each other.

The fourth song has an element of 'Masti' where they tease each other. This has a little flavor of Arabic and here the boy sees the girl in her college or school, but when he comes home then also he sees her everywhere.

Q. Which song from your collection do you consider to be the best?
A. It is difficult to say because there are many and every song I sing is close to my heart. I would say 'Yaadein' from my album and the song that will come after that. The song in 'Kalyug' was also successful.

Q. Name one song….
A. Then I would say 'Yaadein' from this album. I consider it to be the best amongst the songs sung by me.

Q. What is happening with your playback singing these days?
A. I sang in a few films like 'Kalyug' and 'Delhi Heights'. I have sung in the film 'Ek Tha Deewana.' Madhavan and Dino Morea are in the film. I am not sure about it. The real thing is that I am concentrating on my album as I want people to know my strengths and what I can sing and what suits my voice.

Q. What, according to you, is the reason that listeners should buy your album?
A. I had said many things during 'Indian idol' and my brother had also said so. I think to know how much I have been able to fulfill those, they should buy one copy of my album. I have tried to give my best.

My attempt is to give something really good to my listeners. I have made songs that people will like to listen to at least 100 times and songs that they will relate to.

I am saying I have tried because at last all depends on the listeners whether they like it or not but I will say I have enjoyed composing and they are close to my heart. I feel people should buy the album to try it out at least.

Q. When is the launch of your album?
A. The date is not fixed till now, but probably we will launch it on January 17. -Sonu Anand

Indian Idol 3 Caravan hits Mumbai

After traveling across 11 cities in Mumbai for talent auditions, the Indian Idol caravan or canter has now come into Mumbai. The talent hunt series adapted from the 'Pop Idol' format is now in its third season and will be telecast on Television from May.

While the series increased its ambit of audition cities, the show will also be holding its first ever international auditions in Dubai. The lines for UAE have been opened on 19 March and will close on 4 April. The international auditions are for non resident Indians only.

The show has retained Anu Maliik on the jury while singer Udit Narayan, Alisha Chinai and lyricist Javed Akhtar will join him.

Speaking about the show Sony Entertainment Television Executive Vice President and Business Head Albert Almeida said, "As witnessed in the last two seasons of Indian Idol the third season too promises to take viewer engagement and interactivity to even greater heights while catapulting the Indian Idol into ultimate stardom."

He also added that since last year many viewers were disappointed by the ouster of talented singers, this year the format will include a wild card entry which the jury will hand out to a deserving singer who has been voted out.

The reality series has been a successful one for SET and in addition to a recording contract with Sony BMG, the 'Indian Idol' this year will be awarded a contract with the channel worth rupees one crore

INDIAN IN AMERICAN IDOL

SO FAR SO GOOD: Sanjaya will be one of the 10 contestants to perform as part of the show's national Idol Tour.

Sanjaya Malakar, an Indian American, is making news for his surprising and unexpected success in the reality music contest American Idol.

But the 17-year-old's dream journey to become the next American Idol hasn't been easy.

He was initially branded one of the worst contestants in the reality show and received a lot of negative feedback from the judges.

Many consider him a rank outsider and things weren't looking up until he was picked as one of the 12 finalists by a public vote.

Now, he's made it through two more rounds and will be one of the 10 contestants entitled to perform as part of the show's national Idol Tour.

Even the judges of the show are all praises for him now.

"You came out of the show tonight. This has been your best performance so far," American Idol judge, Randy Jackson said on Sanjaya's performance.

But some others like acid-tongued judge Simon Cowell aren't happy. Cowell has even threatened to resign if Sanjaya wins the reality show.

Several conspiracy theories are already doing the rounds over Sanjaya's success. Many believe he has come this far due to the Indian community's support while others say a popular American Idol fan site is generating support for him.

Whatever the reason, this 17-year-old seems to be going places and has already made a mark for himself in the music circuit.
