Mumbai: After almost nine months, Indian Idol 12 has finally found its winner in Pawandeep Rajan. The ‘greatest grand finale’ that went on for 12 hours on Independence Day ended with judges Himesh Reshammiya, Anu Malik and Sonu Kakkar handing over a trophy, a car and a cheque of Rs 25 lakh to champion.
“Indian Idol is a platform that gives a lot of respect to artists, and the kind of exposure it gets you is unmatched. Through the course of the show, we got to sing so many songs, and had the best judges and guests to guide us. The reason I got back in the arena was not my will to win but my quest to learn. And I am thankful that after spending so many months on this show, we are now ready to playback,” Pawandeep was quoted as saying by indianexpress.com.
Arunita Kanjilal and Sayli Kamble were adjudged as the first and second runners-up respectively among the Top 6 Finalists. They were awarded a cheque of Rs 5 lakh.
The third and the fourth runners-up, Mohammad Danish and Nihal Tauro were given a cheque of Rs 3 lakh. All the 6 finalists received a cheque of Rs 75,000 from Raj Superwhite Soap and gift hampers from Colgate and Denver.
