MUMBAI:
As the show takes a more serious turn with seven nanhe stars singing
away to glory in the race to become Amul's Star Voice of India Chhote
Ustad, the show sees more stars and celebrities gracing the sets
and wanting to meet these singing prodigies. This Saturday, the
viewers are in for a treat as Alka Yagnik takes her seat as a celebrity
judge in the Retro Raat which celebrates the golden period of Indian
music and pays tribute to the legendary Kishore Kumar, Rafi , Lata
Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsale, Manna De and many more who have become
immortal with their everlasting music.
 To
keep up to the mood of the evening, the judges and the little kids
were dressed colourfully with bell-bottoms and bumble-bee glasses;
like the stars from 70s and 80s. And it didn't stop at this; Abhaas
and Kunal Ganjawala went into the Sholay trance and did the Jai-Veeru
act while Shreya Ghoshal, usually known for her soberness, quickly
image changed into Basanti and mimed Hema malini. Also Yaadon ki
Baraat was recreated as Abhaas, Kunal Ganjawala and Pritam did a
small parody on the title song. Truly the mood was retro!
Amongst
all this fun, Alka Yagnik referred to Shaan and Abhijeet whose presence
was missed on the Star Voice of India sets. "Coming on Star
Voice of India Chhote Ustad is like coming to my home ground. I
had judged the first season of Star voice of India and coming back
here is like coming back to my family. I am missing Shaan, Abhijeet
here", she said.
Anvesha,
Prakriti, Jayant, Vyom, Sonia, Aishwarya, Areeb rocked the stage
as they sang one melodious songs after another leaving everybody
nostalgic with the musical and titillating number from 70s and 80s.
While all the kids performed their songs par excellence, Alka yagnik
who was completely floored by Aishwarya's singing, promptly removed
her gold chain and gave it to Aishwarya. "In fact, I rang up
Gajendra Singh to say that Aishwarya is an excellent singers and
I am looking forward to hearing her in person", said Alka Yagnik
on this emotional moment. She was also happy with fact that girls
are finally recognized unlike earlier when she was judging the show.
Also she congratulated the Chhote Ustad team for giving this platform
to young kids who are the future of the music industry.
