Hoga Tumse Pyaara Kaun?

Theme: Old Romantic Songs!

I love the end of this video clip, when Ismail mentions the 'chalu ghari' part - it is really funny!

Raja had established quite a strong fan base by now and over the weeks, he became quite comfortable with his own stage presence as well as the audience's expectations and because of this, he didn't mind adding his own little gestures and facial expressions, because he knew that the audience longed for it and coupled with his sweet innocence and adorable smile, he knew that the audience were all his!

This romantic song was sang so beautifully, I am sure that every girl in the audience melted, upon hearing his sweet voice!

On this note, I just wanted to clarify a point.  Some Raja fans were disheartened that his marriage was kept a secret throughout Saregamapa 2007, but, to be honest, a lot of the contestants personal lives were kept hidden, such as; some of them were engaged etc. 

The reason for this is usually because;

1) The contestant themselves chooses to keep their personal lives private.

OR

2) Because it can possibly influence the potential fan following of an artist.

With this being a public voting show, the fact is that the disclosure of a marriage could possibly affect the female perspective of votes. 

Although to be honest, I don't think that voting wise, this really made much of a difference to us.  If anything, I think that the whole of Raja's female fan base, suffered from a huge broken heart, but, that's it!
