Vote count revealed

Finally Vijay TV wanted to prove to the viewers that the judgement of the super singer is in the hands of public and they dont really have any take on that. To prove it they had a very contraversial episodes last week with all judges speaking about the performances of the contestants and also told their marks of each of the performances during the grand finale. The scores stood in the way of Sathyaprakash leading with arnd 520 marks and followed by Sai Sharan with around 490 marks. I felt this was needless in the show to tell this immedidately after the grand finals. Is it to honour Sathyaprakash or is it to prove that its not in hands of Vijay TV/judges or is it to insult Sai Sharan ? I am sure there are mixed reactions to this episode and the argument will keep on continuing..

It was not over with just the marks but also with the vote count for each contestant. The vote count has always been secret for last few seasons and they dont disclose it out for various reasons. This time super singer program managers thought it would be good to show it off to public so that the channel/program managers are not affected with the future seasons of the program. The vote count clearly says the number of vote recieved for each of the contestant with the classification of the type of vote even. This disclosure will now make it clear for public and makes it evident that there was huge public backing for Sai Sharan and Santhosh. Now it will time for us to crib against each others and not the Vijay TV or Super Singer judges. I am really amazed by the number of SMS votes being sent by the public and the IVR voting being casted. It is understood that these kinds of voting mechanisms are expensive around 6 INR and people have shown their interest to choose winner by spending money.

More than 4 lakh SMS have been sent for choosing the winner of the show. Looking at the number of votes for the contestants, there are clear trends across them with the vote difference and Sai Sharan's IVR voting has been exceptional. I was expecting to have more online votes and there are chances that the online voting can be exploited with maximum of 3 votes per user. But, surprisingly the online voting has not seen a big number. In fact, I was afraid that people might have automated scripts to generate usernames and cast votes automatically for thousands of times. Now that we say that the public voting alone should not the only criteria to choose the winners and judges marks should also be considered, things are not clear on how Vijay TV will plan ahead to choose the winners from next time. I guess they would continue with the voting which brings the viewers to choose their favourite and a good way to earn money for the channel.
