MUMBAI:Indian
Idol became even more special this week. It had a special guest
who made it so. Not only did Shabana Azmi come as a celebrity guest
but stepped in to hubby Javed's shoes as a judge in his absence.
"With my keen sense of music, I am expected to judge too,"
she pointed out. And she did do a splendid job of it too. With her
ear for music and even keener ear for correct pronunciation, Shabana
proved with ample ease that she is as good a judge as her better
half.
 The
Azmi-Akhtar household is known for holding musical soirees. The
couple share a great love for music. Shabana herself sings and had
trained in Carnatic vocal music for her performance in Morning Raaga
. Not only did she point out the faults of the contestants in her
inimitable style, she even picked up verbal duels with Anu Malek
on a couple of occasions. She even ticked off Anu and told him in
no uncertain terms to stop demoralizing the kids. Alisha loved it.
For once Anu got the taste of his own medicine and Shabana had the
last word. We would not be surprised if other music shows now rope
Madam Azmi to sit on the judge's chair!
