Aditya Narayan Spills The Beans On The Indian Idol Finals
Aditya Narayan is the busiest showbiz entertainer in Mumbai right now.
As Indian Idol reaches its finale on August 15 Aditya Narayan is shooting non-stop for the event. “We are shooting the grand finale over a period of five days because it’s a 12-hour finale. The winners will be announced live. But the rest will be pre-recorded.A large chunk of shooting will happen on 15 August itself.”
And of course Aditya is going to perform at the finale. “I am performing with my father and with Shanmukha Priya.Mika Singh, Javed Ali, Amit Mishra are also performing. Bharati Singh and her husband Haarsh, and Jai Bhanushali will help me with the hosting since it’s an 18-hour finale.”
That isn’t all. Aditya Narayan has more surprises in store. “This is the first that that Papa and I will be so-hosting a segment. Our act is very interesting because I am singing one of his most popular songs Main nikla gaddi lekar from Gadar while Papa will sing my hit song Tatat tatat from Ram Leela.”
Speaking of Ram Leela, there is a story going around that during the making of Ram Leela when Aditya Narayan assisted Sanjay Leela Bhansali the director broke Aditya’s expensive phone when it disturbed the shooting.
Aditya Narayan vehemently denies any such incident. “Arre Sir, ab kya bolein. I swear I have reached a point where I have to literally search super-hard to find something nice written about any popular public figure. SLB is a once-in-a-lifetime filmmaker and a national treasure. What I have learned from him as his AD(assistant director) on Ram Leela by purely observing him can’t be put into words.End of discussion.”
As Indian Idol wraps up Aditya Narayan prepares to host another show. “I will be hosting a new show after Indian Idol . Yes, I am hosting Sa Re Ma Pa. The auditions have started.From September onwards I start shooting for Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. I am looking forward to that as well.”
