Star Voice Of India meets cold response
posted in Indian Television, Star Voice of India |
Star’s latest talent hunt for singers Star Voice of India, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni Sa has met a cold response after the candidate turn out in Mumbai at the Bhavan’s College, Andheri turned out to be very low. Just a few hundred contestants were seen at the venue. The team was expecting thousands and had planned to telecast the auditions as in Indian idol but every fell flat with the cold response. On the other hand auditions for Indian Idol on Sony and Sa Re Ga Ma Pa in Zee had a good response. The fault lies with the lack of publicity for the auditions. Hopefully by the time the next cities have their auditions enough publicity will be done to let the ambitious ones know about the time and date and venue of auditions. Gajendra Singh, however, is unperturbed “This is all false information. I think it’s an attempt to malign my show,” he said. “There were at least 6000 people who came for the audition on Friday and the selection was done by our in-house judges. I admit that there were some technical difficulties on Saturday and we could not shoot it properly. So, we will shoot it again on Monday,” he added. “The show will go on air from May 18. So, I guess, the publicity will start next week. We are just keeping our fingers crossed.” Sure he needs some luck with all the talent hunts going on at the same time.
