MUMBAI: Looks like there’s another Kumar Sanu in the making
as Star Plus show “Rin Mera Star Superstar” gets Jaan
Sanu (Kumar Sanu’s son) entering the semi-final rounds of the
show on December 8, 2006 at 7:30 pm on Star Plus.
 On
asking show jury- Sachin Pilgoankar what he has to say about this;
he adds, “ Jaan has definitely got ‘sur’ and ‘taal’
as a genetic gift from his father but what I admire about him is
that he is using this gift to the best of his advantage and trying
to get ahead in life on his own effort.”
But has he reached this far on own merit or are the judges partial
to him because of his father’s celebrity status?? Judge Sachin
comments “Both Farida Jalal and I are judges on this show and
we are not here to create biases and favoritism among contestants.
We have chosen those contestants who we felt have immense talent
and Jaan is one amongst them. We have definitely not chosen Jaan
in the semi-finals because of his father. On this show, contestants
have to create and use their own identity to come ahead and not
their parents”
Jaan, whose magical performance moved the judges, feels it is unfair
that people believe that he has got selected for the semi-finals
because of his father. In his defense, he says, “I have worked
hard to come so far in the show and I am struggling just like any
other contestants to win this title.
My name is attached with my father Kumar Sanu’s name but I
don’t want to get ahead in life using his name, I am here to
create an identity of my own and so no where in the show have I
used my fathers name. I have given my best performance and that’s
why I have got selected.”
Jaan, whose last performance won him accolades from celebrity guest
Pooja Bhatt will now be in the semi-finals competing with contestants-
Santosh Kapdi (14) and Ashwini Shukla (11) from Mumbai, and 7 other
contestants from Pune, Bangalore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Jaipur. ….
Will Jaan manage to beat his competitors and woo the audience and
the judges once again by recreating the same magic in the semi-finals?
To know watch out for the semi-finals of 'Rin Mera Star Superstar'
on Friday, December 8th 7.30 pm only on Star Plus!
