Super Singer season 2 had Ajeesh winning the title and got a chance to sing in Yuvan Shankar Raja's music. His "ithuvarai illatha" from Goa is a super hit song but I am not sure if he is getting more chances in the movies lately. The season of 2008 also had a contraversial decision by making Ajeesh as super singer which was opposed by many viewers in comparison with Ravi. The expectation was Ravi would win the title but the public voting went onto Ajeesh. During the season Ajeesh was performing well until top 20 level but after that he had a very big improvement and most of his performances were superb. I felt that the later performances that ajeesh gave in the competition saw him winning the title and had a huge public backing. There was an announcement that the vote difference was more than a lakh but the exact vote count was not revealed by the channel.
Ajeesh is being found in the Vijay TV programs after the super singer show and was also involved in auditions of the Airtel Super singer last season. In the Vijay TV music awards Ajeesh had got best debutant (?) singer award and recently in the Radio Mirchi music awards even he was awarded similar award. While Ajeesh won the super singer title I thought that he had good backing from him friends in colleges. There were several memorable performances by Ajeesh in Airtel Super Singer 2 and all of his performances in the one-on-one round were brilliant and in-fact he went on winning that round of the competition. The LIVE grand finale started during this season of the competition and there was a huge pressure for the contestants to perform well. All I can remember was that the show had Renu and Prasanna as the other finalists apart from Ajeesh and Ravi. There were some criticism that the award has been given based on regionalism and judges were biased which might change looking on the recent announcement of winner of Airtel Super Singer 3 :). All being said I think we will have more of Ajeesh's contribution to Tamil cinema in coming days.
