MUMBAI:
The countdown to the finals of SaharaOne television's musical reality
show JJHOOM INDIA has started. This 12 January, viewers will get
to watch the final singing performances between Jodi No 5 Sachin
– Madhushree and Jodi no 2. Varun – Akriti. Basis on this
final battle the first actor singer jodi will be declared the Jjhoom
India champion jodi of season one to be announced on the grand finale
episode to be aired on 18 January.
 Jjhoom
India
provided platform to television artistes who thought they couldn't
be actors and singers at the same time. Viewers were treated to
stage performances by 10 dynamic jodis of popular television actors
paired with professional playback singers where they got along in
the hope to make some beautiful music together. It was all through
a mesmerizing journey for all the 10 jodis who competed in the show
and tried their best to make it to the top. But jodi no.5 Sachin
- Madhushree and Jodi no.2 Varun –Akriti finally made it to
the finals. Both these jodis have been the most commendable and
appreciated by one and all. It isn't just hard work; there is lot
of time, energy, patience, perseverance and determination that drove
them to be among the best two – the finalists of Jjhoom India.
Having
reached the grand finale, Sachin believes that the key aspect to
remember now is stay relaxed and be more focused. 'I always got
good points. Just once I didn't receive great remarks and I was
voted out. But what happened at that juncture only helped me come
out of the competition sphere. The fear of losing went away. From
the time I am back, I have sung all my songs in a relaxed manner
because I am no more scared of consequences. I am in fact giving
my throat ample rest so that I don't over exert. Having reached
the top two, Madhuji – my mentor and I are only concerned about
jury and audience liking our song selection.'
On
the other hand Varun Badola always thought he knew a lot about music
until he participated in Jjhoom India to realize that how much ever
one learns music is less. 'I haven't had formal training in music
but have learnt listening to Lataji, Ashaji, Kishori Amonkar and
several such veterans. The last two months have been extremely enriching
due to the musical knowledge acquired. The credit for my success
this far is because of Akriti – my mentor, Ananth Vaidyanathan
– Vocal trainer and Rajeshwari – my wife and my best critic"
Varun too agrees on the song selection part, saying, 'The confidence
to attempt a particular song comes only with practice. I love the
song Naina Thag lenge from Omkara and wanted to sing it from day
one. But I was shown the mirror and advised to sing it only when
I had achieved a certain distance in music. If I had attempted to
sing Naina in the first or second round because it is my favourite
song, I would have been out long back."
The
12 week of intense battle fought between the 10 participating jodis
have churned out the top two extremely talented jodis competing
for the Jjhoom India crown! It's now the final chance for them to
give everything to see their dream of becoming a singer come true.
So don't miss to catch the final performances by our awesome twosome
