It was unfortunate to see that the voting was so close. Harish's campaign on the internet was more the factor is getting him through. Sowmya was unlucky. She was improving a lot and tried harder to get through the emotive and celebrity rounds. It is unfair to see someone who has not gone through the levels and having got a backdoor entry, going through with some voting by his friends.
Anyway the episode itself was another waste of time showing the other four finalists having fun in the city. The part with Ananthji was interesting -- wish they had spent more time with him and sharing more information about voice culture and voice grooming. That portions were too short. Seeing Vikram was okay -- but was it worth wasting an whole segment on his singing and eating with the contestants? It might be worth it for the contestants but for the viewers...?
Anyway, we are so close to the finals. Everyone has a chance. Gautham's chance are tough. Nikhil might be saving his best for the last and might spring a surprise. Maya and Anitha are strong contenders. Now with Harish's luck and friend's backing, he might throw in another ugly surprise.
