I just read that 6 contestants are coming in Ktm to rock but common people we need that money to make Prashant the winner. So, anybody who is serious about Prashat, please don't waste money for 6 contestants instead go to india2-3 days ahead to buy sms or phone cards and vote for him. It will be much more fulfulling than wasting money for eliminated 6 contestants. Pls, use that money to vote for Prashant. Prashant needs us more than ever. Please be wise and spend the money wisely.
The country is set to
rock with six 'Indian Idol' contestants.
On Friday, Ankita,
Chang, Charu, Deepali, Parleen and 17-year-old wonder boy Emon, who
made it to the top three before exiting the show last week, will arrive
in Kathmandu for two power-packed shows that are expected to be runaway
successes.
The contestants remain hugely popular in both India
and Nepal despite being voted out of Sony Television channel's gripping
talent hunt show.
Sponsored by Mero Mobile, Nepal's first private
company to offer cell phone services, the six, who captured the fancy
and hearts of viewers in India, Nepal, Dubai, Singapore and even
London, will hold a three-hour show at a football ground in temple city
Patan Saturday, followed by a more exclusive soiree at the posh Soaltee
Crowne Plaza hotel Sunday.
Keeping in mind the immense popularity
of the show in Nepal, Kathmandu's event management company DMI, which
has pulled off the entertainment coup, has decided to cater to both the
upmarket clientele as well as the masses.
For the football ground
show, the tickets are priced at Nepali Rs.399 while the Soaltee
concert, complete with dinner, will cost Rs.3,500 per head.
The 'Icons and Idols' show will also feature two pop stars from Nepal, Nima Rumba and Anil Singh.
DMI
chief Raju Singh, a well known DJ in Nepal, however, says the credit
for the idea actually goes to another event manager who three years ago
brought Abhijit Sawant, the first Indian Idol, to sing in Kathmandu.
'However,
this will be the first - and the last time - that the six Idol
contestants will be on the same stage together,' Singh told IANS
cryptically.
'I don't know what's going to happen to them afterwards but this was something Sony told me.'
DMI,
which monitors Nepal's entertainment pulse keenly to keep abreast of
what's in and what's out, decided to bring the six singers for the
ultimate party in Nepal.
'There's an 'Indian Idol' craze in
Kathmandu,' Singh told IANS. 'Everyone is watching the show on
television and everyone knows who they are. We chose the six on the
basis of their popularity.
'We had to wait till the top two were
chosen since the contract with Sony doesn't allow the contestants to
participate in anything else as long as they are still contesting.'
Singh also has plans to organise a concert featuring Prasant Tamang, the obscure young policeman from Kolkata who has now become a household name as well as the icon of the Nepali-speaking diaspora after clawing his way to the top five
