Paying Homage to Mature Talent: Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Seniors Season 5 Winner
Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Seniors has never been any different in the reality TV industry in terms of highlighting mature musical talent. The contestants to the show are of all types of people and generally aged above some age category, and they have their voices heard and the performers do have the experience and emotional appeal in their songs. This season that started its run on May 24 was not any different, as it provided an abundance of musical genres and emotional backgrounds.
It was a stiff cut-off of hundreds of enthusiastic persons reduced to six final competitors who competed in the big arena: Sreehari Raveendran, Susanthica, Sapesan, Chinnu Senthamilan, Pavithra, and Shivani. Both the competitors had their own jazzy touch and their own musical advantages and the overall decision proved to be a difficult challenge to the professional panel and the audience as well. The season was marked by perpetual expansion and commitment that offered weekly unforgettable performances that stretched the boundaries of their voices.
Highlighting the Best Performers and The Favourite of The People
Although Susanthica took home the final trophy, it was also a ceremony for the other outstanding performers who made it to the final stage.
The First Runner-up title belonged to Sapesan who captured the attention of the judges and the audience over the course of the season due to his mastery of folk music. His stage presence combined with a fusion of classical music and traditional tunes made him a strong and memorable competitor, who just lost out on the top.
Chinnu Senthamilan secured the position of the Second Runner-up. Known as a constantly dynamic and strong performer, Chinnu gained recognition and popularity due to her hard work and unusual voice, and rightfully belongs to the ranks of the best of the season.
There was also a special category of love among the audience as contestant Pavithra was chosen to win the people favoured award and she had captured the hearts of the audience with her captivating experiences in the show.
The Expert Panel of Judges
The building of the quality and standard of the competition was the highly regarded judging panel, which consisted of the legends in the industry and successful singers. It was an excellent season that was characterized by returning veterans and well-regarded new voices taking the contestants through the season.
Returning judges Srinivas, Vijay Prakash, Saindhavi and Karthik were also involved in the panel, offering priceless feedback on the singers. They were accompanied by new and very respected personalities in the music fraternity: famous singers Shweta Mohan and SP Charan, and brought a new point of view to the ratings. Their positive expert advice was imperative in the development of the musical experiences of the contestants and lifting competition standards of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Seniors Season 5.
When a curtain comes to end this wonderful season, attention is on the golden future of Susanthica. Her winning is not just the end of a contest but the dawn of a new bright career, once again demonstrating the ability of such a platform to find and sign the musical genius into the international arena.
