Farah Khan back on reality TV
Choreographer-director Farah Khan is back in action. She is all set to judge yet another reality show for singers from Endemol and Star Plus, titled Jo Jeeta Wohi Superstar. "It's good to be back on TV," she said. But is the show worth leaving her li’l triplets at home? "The best part about the show is that judges get 50 per cent of the voting. There were complaints by judges in other reality shows that the right person didn't win because the maximum votes went to someone else. We will make sure the right person wins on JJWS."
Endemol India, who has given us shows like Big Brother and Deal Ya No Deal, has developed an innovative format for this show. It has taken six winners from various reality shows and clubbed them together against 12 runners-up from these shows. Judges on the show are Farah Khan and Vishal-Shekhar.
The winners, called Champions, are from Indian Idol, Amul Star Voice of India, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge and Ek Main Aur Ek Tu and Fame Gurukul. They include Abhijeet Sawant, Debojit Saha, Ishmeet Singh, Rooprekha Banerjee, Ujjaini Mukherjee and Aishwarya Nigam.
The defenders, called Challengers, include Amit Sana, Amit Tandon, Harshit Saxena, Himani Kapoor, Neha Kakkar, Prajakta Shukre, Priyani Vani, Rahul Vaidya, Ravinder Ravi, Saumitra Iyer, Toshi Sabri and Vineet Singh.
Music director Vishal said, "We'll be working with these singers, not so much judging them. They are here to hone their talents further. It's a fight among the best and only the best will win." Added Shekhar, "All these singers are champions - ready for playback and albums."
Abhijeet Sawant said, "It will be challenging but I'm going to have fun on the show." Rahul Vaidya played a dude but seemed to be spending more time with the Champions team, who were dressed in black and blue, much to the chagrin of the Challengers, dressed in black and red. Well, some people never want to play their part!
