Looking at the kind of talent that has come I can proudly say that the singing ka kal looks extremely promising and worth applauding. The beauty of this show is the Guru-Shishya concept. Since the contestants are of a young age, this is the right time for them to explore their potential to the fullest. The captains as gurus will bring that sensibility and mentor these participants accordingly. I am sure that this Guru-Shishya combination is something that will take Singing to another level.
