Zee TV’s Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is the longest-running singing reality show format that has been ruling the hearts of audiences for almost 3 decades. After introducing the world to talented powerhouses like Shreya Ghoshal, Shekhar Ravijani, Kunal Ganjawala, Sugandha Mishra, Kamal Khan, Raja Hasan, and Vaishali Mhade who have carved a name for themselves in the industry, Zee TV is giving some exceptional young singing prodigies a chance to shine on the grandest stage once again with the 9th season of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li’l Champs. This season viewers are getting to watch a fresh panel of judges including Shankar Mahadevan, Anu Malik, and Neeti Mohan guide the young singing sensation with Bharti Singh entertaining one and all as the host.
While the top 12 contestants have been mesmerizing one and all with their fantastic singing, this weekend, viewers will have a gala time as the iconic Bollywood actress Kajol and her upcoming film ‘Salaam Venky’s co-star Vishal Jethwa will be seen gracing the special episode – ’30 years of Kajol’. While all the talented kids impressed the judges as well as the special guests with their amazing performances during the shoot, it was Rafa and Atharva’s performance to ‘Ye Raatein Ye Mausam’ that made Kajol emotional and miss her Maasi, Nutan Bahl. In fact, she shared how she is proud and grateful for being brought up by her mother, Maasi and Nani, who have not taught her to be the strong woman that she has turned into but showed it to her.
Kajol mentioned, “I was too little when Nutan maasi was a superstar, and when I grew up, I watched her in the role of a mother in most of the films. She was also a very brilliant and talented singer and used to perform for us on her Harmonium. I have to say one thing about my mother, Maasi, and Nani, we keep talking about women empowerment and making women strong these days, but the leading ladies of my life have never taught me about it, but their lives have been a live example for me to become one, they did it and showed it to me. I am fortunate to have been brought up by these women.”
While Kajol’s emotional moment will melt your heart this weekend, wait till you watch all the extravagant performances by these contestants.
