Back to singing Sachin Tyagi
One more reality show has come to an end. Sachin Tyagi has won SaharaOne’s Jjhoom India.
Sachin, a promising actor, and his mentor Madhushree, turned out to be dark horses in the singing contest, where big names such as Shekhar Suman, Jatin Pandit, Suresh Wadkar and Shweta Tiwari participated.
The duo was perhaps the only one who did not resort to publicity gimmicks to garner votes. “All through we relied on our voice and performance to garner votes. We didn’t fight with the judges and I never pointed out my mentor’s mistakes in front of the camera. This proves the audience wants to listen to somebody whose sur is in order.” Sachin says he did have differences with Madhushree. “In fact we had fights almost every week over the choice of songs. Like I felt I can sing ‘Mere Naina Sawan Bhadon’, while Madhushree was of the view that it did not suit my voice. Now how can she tell me, what suits my voice? But we made sure all differences are settled before we went up on the stage. And it paid off.”
Few know that Sachin had cut an album four years ago. “Nobody took me seriously as a singer. So I switched to acting and had not been practising. After the victory I feel confident to revive my singing career but will continue to act. After all I was invited to participate in the show because I have made a name as an actor.” For now he wants to sleep over the Rs. 25 lakh prize money! “I want to feel it,” he smiles.
