Bhubanda, This is the most popular television program in India today. The votes are based on the number of individual SMSes sent - not number of people sending SMSes. The songs sung are all Hindi movie songs from all times. At the end of each show, the participants seek votes. Given this format, the participants seek votes from where they think the votes would come. To the last man, the votes were sought along regional lines.
What has happened is in the NE, for whatever reason, it sparked off a fervour. And so while the number of people might be less, the number of SMSes per person sent was proportionately far higher. Perhaps because given the limited opportunity for individual success in our region, people identified with this guy more strongly. Elsewhere, including Bengal, the people are less bothered. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Dear Mr Das > > I don't know how broadbased these popular television > programme are in India > and in what way votes are compiled and in case it > was open to all the States, > the poor figures from Bengali speaking areas would > matter.
