Mumbai: The fluorescent lamps that shine down on Asia?s second largest indoor floor in the Chitranjali Film Complex, hosting Amrita TV?s Super Star-The Ultimate will light up the stage for the final time, during the Grand Finale of the mega music reality show. The concluding performance which will decide the ultimate super star ,will go on air at 6.30 pm on Saturday, May 19th .

Five contenders have managed to come through the unsparing scrutiny of the 2 permanent jury members, the fastidiously critical P.Jayachandran and the cynically exacting Sharreth, to the finals : Krishnan, the youngest to qualify, groomed by a solid musical background; Rahul Raj, blinded at 4, but gifted with musical talent to compensate for it; Reshma, schooled in classical but able to excel in cinematic on stage; Sanoop who tapped in on his strengths to make it to the top; Sreejith who maintained a high standard from the word go.

Positioned at an even distance from the title, the winner will be decided by how the five fare in the Finale, consisting of the Performance round and Melody Round.

As the frontrunners get into their stride, the judging panel comprising customary judges P.Jayachandran and Sharreth, reinforced by 2 stars from the playback fraternity, G.Venugpal and Gayathri ,will together settle the issue of who is the best singer of the competition.

Celebrity performances from all the 4 judges will dot the Finale evening, as they take turns at the microphone to ease off the mounting tension of the contest.

On May 19th , as the challengers compete, each a few melody-widths away from the crown, the final five have already been marked for great heights in music, regardless of the result.
