Here We Go Again

Fresh on the heels of Abhijeet's backdoor trashing of his ability, Atif Aslam has once again been slammed on an Indian sing song show, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. Although this time, it was by somebody with slightly more credentials:

That's right, Asha Bhosle got in on the fun! Well, kind of. A couple things about this video. First, your participants other than Ms. Bhosle would be from left to right: Pritam(Music Director), Shankar (Playback Singer/Music Director), Himesh Reshamiya (singer/ladies man/hat enthusiast) and finally Aadesh Shrivastav (Music Director). Oh there's also a young Sikh contestant named Sukhwinder who gets caught in crosshairs. Poor bastard.

Anyway, this is the second major attack on Atif in the past two weeks. Just as we said about recognizing his popularity in this argument, we must recognize charges that are made by experts in the field. It may be time to use some of the ample touring money he makes for singing lessons. And you really can't hate on the critics, because they came right out and made their point. Also, I like that they hired the same guy to edit this show that does Kusum. The multiple zoom ins, the slow mo, the b&w replays, all so effin sweet. It raises the level of tension to garam masala levels.

It was kind of sweet to see Pritam come to his defense since they've worked together, but he probably stole that argument from a Korean Show. Really nothing else to add here other than Himesh Reshamiya, you sly dog, I didn't know you had that sassy mane under the hat. He should let that thing out more often and let the ladies know what's up.
