It was a huge blow for the Bengali audience when Sanchari Das got eliminated from Indian Idol 13. However, Bidipta, Senjuta, and others intend to fulfill the dream of Arunita Kanjilal. At least that is what the fans are hoping.

From the beginning, the Bengali contestants are ruling this season of the reality show. Around seven Bengali contestants secured a place in the top 15. Super Singer winners Pritam Roy and Sanchari Das were eliminated later. Now, there are five contestants of Bengali origin are fighting for the top position.

Anushka’s fans were tensed before the elimination night on Sunday. She was in the bottom three. However, to their respite, no one was eliminated from the show. The biggest surprise of the ‘no-elimination’ episode was Navdeep Wadali’s car winning. He bagged a Maruti Alto K-10 from the show. Veteran singers Kavita Krishnamurthy and Anuradha Padowal were the special guests on Saturday. On Sunday, it was Jitendra, who graced the show as a guest.

Bengal’s Sonakshi Kar, Anushka Patra, Bidipta Chakraborty, Debashmita Roy, and Senjuti Das are among the top 11 contestants. Will they make it to the top 10 is something we need to watch out for.

It was Pavandip Ranjan whose popularity ruled the last season in terms of popularity. This season, Rishi Singh has gained a lot of popularity. In fact, Indian cricketing star Virat Kohli is a fan of Rishi. Overall, the fight is on and we will have to wait and watch if Bidipta, Senjuti, and the squad can neat Rishi and emerge as the winner. Himesh Reshammiya, Neha Kakkar, and Vishal Dadlani are the judges this year.
