Abhijit Sawant rocks the Stage on K for Kishore - SET Channel

Abhijit Sawant rocks the Stage on K for Kishore

The contest is getting fierce in K for Kishore.. Get ready for a mindblowing musical week, as Abhijit Sawant makes his presence in the episode.

Are you looking for some great songs, music and nostalgia? Look no further. Just tune in to K for Kishore the coming weekend, Friday, January 25 ^th,at 9.00 p.m and relive the memories of these songs that have been etched in our minds. To add to the nostalgia, the show has ample sprinkling of anecdotes from those who knew and loved Kishore Kumar in his lifetime. So wife Leena Chandavarkar Ganguly, Bappi Lahiri, Sudesh Bhosle and 'the little girl' who was a part of the late singer's troupe, Bela Sulakhe reveal the little known things about the eccentric singer in the absence of an indisposed Amit Kumar. Yes, Amit will be missed in this episode!

The theme "Aa dekhe zara kismet kitna hai dam …" was just apt for the face off round of K for Kishore. One contestant each from the Jhumroo team and Bangdoo team compete with each other to make it to the next round. At the end of this round two contestants with the lowest scores face elimination from the show which moves to its Gala rounds in the next phase of the competition.

The teams broke up into duets with Apoorva (he seems to be getting tons of mails from women admirers from all over ) and Kshtij, Vinod Seshadri and Chetan Rana, Chintan Bakiwala and Arnab forming the 3 teams in the first round. The solo numbers that were sung too had the audiences and judges asking for more. Apoorva's heart rendering of Geet gata hoon main… Kshitij's Tum bin jaoon kahan… Vinod's Yeh kyaa hua… Chetan's flawless rendering of Saanson se nahi, which was the best performance to say so, Arnab's Roop tera mastana…and Chintan's Dream girl…

This episode has another surprise for the viewers. Abhijeet Sawant, the first Indian Idol, makes his presence in the episode .He pepped up the environment with his energetic rendering of the all time popular number from film Don Khaike paan Benaras wala. Like Milind Ingle before him, has Abhijeet too entered the show as yet another Challenger? Stay tuned to find out.

Before the start of the round, the large hearted judge Bappi Lahiri announced that he would gift one of his lucky gold chains to the best singer of the round. Perhaps, it was the very idea of bagging a heavy gold chain from Bappi's neck had all the singers belting out their songs with newfound energy and zing!

For those hardcore Kishore Kumar fans who have participated in the Challenger participation, stay tuned to find out who among the viewers will soon become the part of the show as Challenger participants.

K for Kishore, every Friday & Saturday at 9.00 p.m is getting in to interesting rounds. There's loads of singings, masti, magic, memories of evergreen Kishore Kumar only on Sony Entertainment Television.
