Saaki

Wooooaaaaahhhhh!!!!

Ok, I am a strong believer that God works in mysterious ways and I do believe that it was fated, that I had designed my web page this month, to be a fiery and flamed theme because after watching today's episode of; 'Ek Se Badhkar Ek,' it seems that our Raja was on FIRE today...(literally,) and I am not talking about his performances, I am talking about his phenomenal verbal sparring with one of the judges Abhijeet!!!

But, firstly let me speak on Raja's performances.

'Saaki' from the movie Musafir

(I loved the outfits - They were beautiful!)

This is the first time that we got to see Raja and Jassi performing together as a duo on stage, this performance; 'Saaki,' began a little bit shaky at the intro, but, as Raja warmed up to to the chorus and ripped out his powerful, booming voice - I was hooked!!!  In my opinion, I don't think that as a duo, they did badly at all.  Naturally, Jassi's dancing skills were a lot more stronger than Raja's because Raja was concentrating soooo hard on his singing and getting his song delivery perfect that it was impossible to sing/dance AND do justice to both equally, but, his effort was very much appreciated by his fans.

Sajna Tere Bina

Now, let's move onto his next performance:

'Sajna Tere Bina' from the movie Bandit Queen

Raja...Raja....Raja, what a stunning performance, simply superb!!!  Considering that Raja had just had a major verbal sparring with Abhijeet, I think that he faired very well in this flawless performance.  He was simply amazing!!!  Raja again takes us all into an enchanted state with this song, (which was originally sang by the Late Great Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.)  Raja has thus far, sang a great variety of songs on this show and his general career graph has consistently been amazing, he is by far, the greatest singer on this show as well as the most versatile.

Let's all pray extra hard and vote in our droves to make sure that Raja wins this show to prove to Abhijeet, just how much we love Raja!!!
