The 13th season of the famous singing reality show, Indian Idol has lifted the curtain to welcome new talent from across the country with judges Himesh Reshammiya, Neha Kakkar, Vishal Dadlani, and host Aditya Narayan. But the singing show has already faced calls for a boycott by fans after Arunachal Pradesh’s Rito Raba unexpectedly dropped out.
Indian Idol 13 recently concluded its audition round and shared the names of the contestants who made it to the top 15. Contestants like Vineet Singh, Sanchari Sengupta, Rishi Singh, Bidipta Chakraborty, Shivam Singh, Sonakshi Kar, Navdeep Wadali, Senjuti Das, Chirag Kotwal, Kavya Limaye, Anushka Patra, Rupam Bharnarhia, Pritam Roy, Debosmita Roy, and Shagun Pathak were selected.
As Rito Raba was eliminated from the top 15 contestants, angry netizens expressed their anger by trending ‘Boycott Indian Idol’ on Twitter. Many said they were unhappy with the verdict and questioned the credibility of the show and judges to find new talent. They also demanded the makers bring Rito Raba back to the show.
