The judges have clearly shown their favouritism towards him and this has a negative impact with the viewers. Even if he wins the title this baggage will always be on his shoulders . That will impede his carrer as a musician as it is finally the wider audience who make the singer a success or failure (not MGS/Sharat/Usha Uthup). So Najim, if you want to have a successful carrer in music tell the judges to be even handed in their marking. Reply to this

It is very clear that the panel of judges were not impartial. Najim had undue favours from the judges rounds after rounds, though his Ghazal was very very impressive.
Some of his average performances got him 80+, while Thushar was pushed down to 70+ for some of his fine performances. When Durga impressed MSV with a majestic performance, judges were canvassing for Najim with MSV and made sure he didn't go below what Durga got in that round (89 marks). All this make me leaning towards the belief that there was some substance with the romours floating around him before.
If Najim wins, he may be richer by 40 lakshs, but I am afraid, he may loose the credibility because of some biased unprofessional approach from the judges. Reply to this

GS, You are cent percent right. I am sure Najim has alreay lost many of his fans on account of the partial judges.

But there is a business motive behind this whole show.
Durga's father is i BSNL, she will get lots of SMS.
Arun Gopan: Is a female hearthrob
Najim : Is good singer, what evre you say.. he is not the star.. take all the hindi songs which he have sung. Sahrath, MGS all say good... what have MGS and sharth know aqbout music outside kerala. .. first of ll.
All say MGs is a good singer: Has he stopped singing now.. for the past one year he is the judge of this ISS, no body is calling him to sing for movies ?? 365 he is in TVm for the shoot. crazyy.. Not wortha judge.
Sharath: How many of us knew who Sharath is before ISS, ?? he is nobody in music world.
Didi: Forget it .. she is a performer not a singer.
Why doesnt asianet call people like KJYesudas, Ilayaraja, and other masteros... bcoz they know they will.. just tell the truth and will not give marks according to Asianets Whims and fancies..
And to all those guys who are sending SMS... pls dont spend ur money...for this foolish money minting programme. It is only bcoz people are sending SMS,, they are extended. had this SMS not been a click nobody would have even thought about ISS, and there would not have been a website like this for comments. ..
If they really want it to be decided by people.. why dont all the mobile companies decide " let us ake off the SMS charges for SMS send to ISS." .. guys this is all money.. dont spend ur money.. for follish things. since advice.... i am an ex asianet employee. Reply to this

The people who loves music will watch whatever may be the show it is reality or recorded. They can realize it's feeling by just listening any good music. And moreover participants please don't waste time if u r students and don't loose ur job and shift ur family to the recording place if the show is like ISS2007. The students are wasting their time. U can concentrate in music from the age of 3 till age of 13 or Max 14. After that please concentrate on ur studies and carrier and get a job first. Then if u feel that ur safe in ur career then go for this kind of additional activities as they r not permanent. I think everyone can understand. Reply to this
