I think Udit is giving all the encouragement needed to Prashant and I take all his comments as positive. He himself knows how he had to struggle his way into singing. Moreover,I would think that Deepa Gazmer Jha, with her root in Darjeeling and being a Nepali, would not want to see Prashant loose. Darjeeling, Sikkim and Calcutta Police all in Prashant fever. Dharan and Ilam are also buzzed with Prashant watching. You see all smiling faces among the faces of Dehradun Nepalis with Prashant talk and it is all over from Kumao region to Garwal and everywhere even in Pithoragarh. How about our Kath ko Mandu? Among the Nepali viewers in India, they say it is the first time they all have glued to warch the TV with friends and families after the Ramayana serial. What a magical voice this young man is gifted with. As someone said, "Prashant's sweet face speaks of the innocence and purity of the people in the hills". I hope Prashant's signing career does not end with the end of the Idol. There is not much opportunity at the Calcutta Police to go further. All those who are doing wah wah should remember him to encourage to go for a formal training in singing. A brief note on Prashant's life. In one of the interviews, I heard him say something about his father killed in an accident. I learned that the fatal accident occurred when Prashant was close to finishing his high school at St. Robert's. It changed his life and that of his family. Prashant's father in Calcutta Police and was a sole bread earner for the family back home and supporting education for children. Prashant had to quit school and he joined the police. His family is now solely dependent on him.How many other contentants had to go through all of it? My salute to his parents who put their best efforts to put him in the path of education. It was so sweet of his mother to say, "Gorkhali ko shir ucha rakhnu parchha.." (see hijoko Kantipur). Anyway, with his golden voice, Prashant could go places. Best of luck, Prashant. I will be watching.
