Maithili Thakur and her musical performance in the TV contest

We had been watching a TV musical contest. One uniqueness of the contest was that it had allowed both classical and semi classical musical contestants to perform the preparations. Our interest slowly got momentum as the fusion of these two forms along with the Punjabi, Sufi or some other forms of musical presentations were put together and offered for the individual contestant's performance to be adjudged by the masses. This was a truly appreciable offer but it was a very difficult thing for the common people to classify and mark an individual's position among the contestants. Even for the three experts who had reared the talent of the performers. One of the contestants namely Maithili Thakur had been excelling all through till the final day of the contest. She lost her position then only defeated by a Punjabi singer, Bennet. Here we felt that despite a better classical presentation by Maithili Thakur on that day she had to lag behind by one point only. We feel that she has already been earmarked by great musical composers and her talent would be harnessed increasingly in future.
