Wild Card for Semifinals

Whenever we have wild card rounds either in Airtel Super Singer or other programs in Vijay TV it happens after the semifinals and the participants gets a chance to enter into the finals of the show. I think they could change this to have the wild card round for the semi finals and finalists are chosen from the semifinals and no more additional contestants after that. This is to give the guys who came till the semifinals a good respect and make sure he is distinguished from other contestants who were eliminated in earlier rounds. I cannot say that one performance in the wild card round might get a participant who got eliminated long back to get into the finals of the show itself. This will prove to be discrimination for other contestants who got selected till semifinals.

I have not been keen on other programs in other channels across India on the wild card rounds and my guess is that Vijay TV might follow the other channels or atleast the star group of channels with similar programs.In the last seasons of the Airtel Super Singer there used to be recall round and alongside with the wild card round but this time the recall round has been removed by the program managers which is good. But, as a substitution to that they had the international contestants getting into the show joining the top contestants. This was more irritating than the recall round where only few contestants get into the show getting another chance. I would say that the international contestants be treated as other local contestants and have their auditions at the sametime as local participants. This might not give better opportunity to overseas contestants given the fact that they might get eliminated in the earlier stages itself. Having said all these we are not sure how Vijay TV and the Airtel Super Singer Junior 3 program managers will run the season this time. Last time it was 1.5 years to get through the season and to find a winner and this time it might be similar time to choose the next super singer junior.
