Singer Rahul Vaidya rose to fame with his participation in the first season of the reality show Indian Idol. He was declared the second runner-up on the show. Now, years later, a clip from the season has resurfaced online in which he is getting scolded by the judges.
Sonu Nigam and Anu Malik were two of the judges during Season 1 of the singing reality show. In the video that is doing the rounds on social media, Rahul is seen singing the song ‘Pretty Woman’ from the film Kal Ho Naa Ho. However, his performance failed to impress the judges.
After the performance, an unimpressed Sonu Nigam said, “Aap har performance ke saath bad se badtar hoye jaa rahe hai. Jo aapne sabse pehle gaaya tha, woh aapne itna achcha gaaya tha ki Anu ji ne aapse kaha tha, ‘Tu aage aa re.’ Yaad hai na? Aur maine kaha tha ki aap shayad jo last ke teen bachenge, usme aap aayenge (You are going from bad to worse with every performance. When you first sang, it was so good that Anu ji called you in front. Do you remember? And I said that I see you make it to the Top 3).”
“Uske baad jab aapne gaaya, toh aapne usi gaane ko thoda kharab gaaya, uske baad jo aapne kal gaaya, woh bhi itna achcha nahi gaaya. Aaj aapne bohot hi kharab gaaya hai (When you sang for the second time, you sang the same song a little worse. Your performance yesterday was not good either. Today, you sang terribly),” he added.
Meanwhile, Anu Malik said that he is getting overconfident and is ignoring the competition around him. “Itna overconfidence aapko hai apne upar. Aankhon mein, chehre mein, ek attitude mein, ki koi exist karta hi nahi hai, sirf main hoon. Yeh nazar aata hai aapki awaaz mein. Woh jo namrata hoti hai, humbleness hoti hai, woh awaaz mein aati hai. Toh pehle kya gaa rahe the, jab tum aaye the, tumhari bhookh nazar aa rahi thi. Aaj tum idhar aaye ho, hume tumhari bhookh nazar hi nahi aa rahi. Tumhe lagta hai, ‘Haan, main aa gaya hoon.’ Yeh attitude hai (You have become overconfident. It shows in your eyes, face, and attitude. You think no one else exists, you are the only one. This shows in your voice too. Humility reflects in the voice. When you first sang, we could see your hunger to make it, but now we can’t. You think you have arrived. That is the attitude),” he said.
Meanwhile, Rahul Vaidya participated in Bigg Boss 14 which concluded earlier this year. He was declared the first runner-up on the show. Currently, he is shooting for the reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi in Cape Town.
