Maverick: From your last post, if i havent understood you wrong, what you meant was that it is justifiable and fair enough to support had he were a Nepali.But Simple logic you are forgetting or rather ignoring. Prashant is nepali.In this case, he is a nepal's flag carrier and I honestly believe that support from nepali community obviously goes to Prashant( keeping the fact in mind that he is equally strong contestant).Amit is better..thats entirely your perception and others might not feel the same way or else he wouldnt have been standing on top four.I guess you should better watch his previous videos where he had cleared he is a NEPALI.Isnt that enough to get nepalese support(please dont forget, he sings no less than other participants).You probably argue that he was born in india so he is an indian.Just stepping in the world for the first time at some foreign land doesnt make him/her the nationality of that nation.HE HAD DECLARED HE IS A NEPALI. I suggest you to watch those videos at the first place. So,the logic is: Prashant, a nepali, participating in indian music contest is naturally getting support from nepalese community. Please dont misunderstand me here that I am trying to claim him a nepali or I am arguing to bring him along nepal's side after all these popularity he gained.I am simply trying to put my idea across saying he himself said he is a NEPALI.And there is no reasons not to believe him.In this scenario, isnt he a nepali flag carrier? Well your question was pretty easy to answer.My bad,I forgot to answer earlier. I would support Darjeeling. Do you want to know why?
