| After
the Shinjini episode, one would have expected our reality show judges to maintain
calm and composure while giving verdicts. However, Ek Se Ek Badhkar judges
Abhijeet and Ahmed Khan are unruffled by this and they certainly never shy away
from expressing themselves. Invoking their ire this time is Rajshree Thakur.
The
two judges are upset with viewer voting wherein the average performers are garnering
more votes than show stealers like Abhishek Avasthi and Kushal Punjabi.
A little birdie informs, “Voicing his concern, Abhijeet said that those
contestants who were earlier languishing behind are now gaining sympathy votes
from the viewers. Ahmed Khan, who was stunned to see Abhishek and
Kushal in the bottom two, requested the creative team to relieve him from his
duty as a judge as he didn’t want to be part of show which applauded mediocre
performers” Quite clearly the judges aimed their barbs at average
performers like Rajshree. However, not one to take things lightly, Rajshree reportedly
remarked that she is here only because of the love and support of her audience
which others are unfortunately deprived of. Some contestants have
made no bones about the fact these judges are very harsh. A few of them have even
broken down. We’d earlier asked Abhijeet whether the judges were indeed harsh.
To this, he replied, “How can you succeed in life without shedding the tears?”
