i dont think Javed Akhtar was rude with Prashant. As far as I have noticed, initially he was the one who pointed out Prashant's talent and magic in the voice . I think when Prashant was not singing upto the mark, he got a little bit disappointed that people in the NE india were simply voting for their hero...just cause he is their local. but now, from the above comments as Prashant is back to singing good...there will only be praises for him. Everybody will say" he is back with a BANG!", " aaj to kamal kiya", " i knew u were the next singing sensation", " gale lagalo" and what not. Anyways, I can only be happy for Prashant and hope he makes us all proud!
