Statistics and Popularity
How popular is Vaishali? How popular is SRGMP 2009?
SRGMP 2009 seems to be nowhere as popular compared to SRGMP 2007. Even Harpreet and Junaid had more popularity than most contestants this year. How do we measure popularity?
Orkut fan club sizes: We see that later contestants like Vaishali and Soumen are struggling to set up their fan club sizes. While Pratibha and Asma have sizes in the range of 200-400 people, most others are even lesser. Vaishali's fan club size ranges in 50-100s, and Soumen being the unlucky one with merely 30 people.
Youtube video counts: Seems like Asma and debojit are more popular than others. But this s only marginally true.
In any case, the numbers look about 10 times less than what C2007 numbers were, at this stage. I don't know why? but may be one reason being random "themes" that are forced upon and apathetic song selections. They are trying to sing the same songs as everyone sings ...and there are no striking out performances. I would think if they select more old songs (than just these new songs which are repeatedly sung) the contestants will get a lot of room to show their specialities.
Now only good news for Vaishali is that, this blog brings together some loyal fans
for Vaishali and her popularity is only on the rise, day by day (see the image below). We have about close to 500 returning visitors on the site. This is more than any fan club for any other contestants (on orkut) at least. And what is better is that many of the visitors on this blog are choosing to follow the voting link.
I hope Zee considers some of her popularity figures. Things are getting crucial now, and I feel Vaishali is at the maximum risk of being eliminated.

Teri Aur ...hai rabba
Yet another flawless performance by Vaishali. Although she got one of the lesser popular songs, but here is where is her chance to give this song a new life and new popularity. Her version is definitely going to be remembered. She sang it with complete finesse and professionalism in her voice.
Also enjoy Kombdi palali. Unfortunately SRGMP doesn't have live orchestra to give support to these impromptu songs. I wonder why?

Brief chit chat with Vaishali Made
Hellow friends,
We are happy to share yet another brief chit chat with Vaishali, very casual topics covered this time.
It was nice to know about Vaishali's hobbies, her thoughts and experience in Saregamapa.
Thanks to Vaishali once again , she was so patient to share her thoughts at 11:45 p.m.:)
So here is Vaishali Made sharing her choices, her thoughts with her fans !
Date of Birth:
21.08.1984
Favorite City:
Mumbai, the land of opportunities !
Favorite Actor:
Salman Khan (After meeting him lastweekJ)
Favorite Actress:
Rekha
Favorite time pass (other than music) :
Eating, watching TV and shopping!
Your Favorite Food:
Traditional Marathi delicacy, ‘Puranpoli’, served with Asli desi ghee.
Puran poli cooked in Vidarbhian style is yummier with lots of stuffed Puran and sugar.
Your Favorite Challenege 2007 contestants:
Raja Hassan and Mussarrat Abbas.
Your Favorite Challenege 2005 contestant:
Never got a chance to follow Challenge 05 season.
One song which you found hard to sing recently ?
It was Himeshji’s ‘Mahiya too’ song from Karzz.
Himeshji is blessed with unique high pitch voice quality.
It is very difficult to match his scale for a female singer even.
I tried this song using one octave down than the original but I was still not comfortable with high notes!
So finally I had to change my song for Karzz promotion round.
Your favorite song composed by Himesh Reshammiya:
Mai Jaha rahoon (Namastey London), Lagan lag gayi hai (Tere naam)
Best quality of Himeshji as a mentor:
His strong encouragement to his singers is just amazing.
Sometimes our performance is not up the mark on stage, but his positive attitude and encouraging words keeps us confident to perform better in next round!
You favorite mentor of Challenge o7;
I never watched mentor’s comments carefully, so I can’t comment.
But as a music director I love Ismail Darbar ji’s compositions a lot.
Your favorite Music Director( just one name please):
Madan Mohan ji.
Laxmikant Pyarelal (If you allow me to mention 2 names:))
For which actress you think your voice is perfect to offer playback?
I think my voice will suit Deepika Padukone very well.
Share your experience to perform in front of Salman khan.
Salman Khan is the sweetest, very down to earth, kind hearted celebrity I have even seen.
It was a pleasant surprise for me when he requested ‘Kombdi Palali’ ,a Marathi song for me to sing.
His mother liked my performance on Zee Marathi Saregamapa and she requested Salman Khan to mention that on show.
It was so sweet of him to dance on ‘Kombdi Palali’ and encouraging me.
Salman Khan memorized last season’s performances, singers and their names too.
He enquired about their career graphs, also offered help for all aspiring singers in Saregamapa.
He talked to every one in his own style which made us so comfortable.
Imagine yourself in TOP 3 of SaReGaMa Pa, what would be your choice of other 2 finalsits?
Debojeet and Shoumen.
And the woman takes away the title?
(Laughs,) I am trying my best, please pray for me.
Thank you Vaishali.
My pleasure!

We like very much the melodious and velvet sound of vaishali starts from sa re ga ma pa marathi. After winning the sa re ga ma pa marathi competition and got a award of " mahagayika ". One day she and her husband Mr. Anant Made walked in front of our shop. We called her immediately. She came to our shop. She was very happy to see all the musical instruments in our shop. She was in hurry to catch a bus to Pune. She went for the recording of music director "Salil Kulkarni". She told us when she will back from Pune she will definitely come to your shop.
After some days she came with her husband to our shop. She already purchased one electronic tanpura from us six to seven months back. But that time we did not know her. Afterwards, when she visited to our shop after coming back from pune. We gave her a real best quality female tanpura pitch black 4 and black 5. Vaishali 's pitch is black = 5. So we tune the tanpura and gave it to her . Also one electronic tabla, as a musical gift from us. This gift is for her perfect riyaz of classical singging. Her guru is also well known classical singer " Pandit Shri Ajay Pohankar". They are also well known to us.
She was very happy. She enjoying music in to our shop. She find many useful classical raagas books in our shop. And so whenever she come to our shop she said I am not come to your shop but I come to "a swar mandir of maa Saraswati".
Now she is just like my daughter, and so i always support her. She is also called me "dada" and my wife "Seema tai". She is just like our family member.
She is from a small village of maharashtra. I am personally proud of her and her struggleful life. We always pray to the god to bless her and make full of success in her musical carrier. Every musical event of "sa re ga ma pa challenge 2009 " friday and saturday we are giving the compliments to her. We discuss about her song of that day. We have 100% guarentee that she will win the award of mahagayika of sa re ga ma pa challenge 2009. Our support and blessing is always with her.
thanking you,
musically yours,
for haribhau vishwanath co.,
(Mr. Uday Diwane).

Vaishali Rocks!
Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting Vaishali Made!
Today she completely captured the show with her "der na ho jaye". I saw one technical coomment by Himesh today, "sur and suron ki shrutiyaan" ...Vaishali's song was not just sur-perfect ...but it was shruti enriched. Listen out for the lines "mar gayeeee hum khuli rahi aankhen...." there is so much dard in her shrutis. However, for the sake of perfection, I must mention that she went slightly off in her sargam in the beginning, but she finished that part with her Mind-blowing soprano throw on the higher parts.
Yet another good version of this song was done by Rithisha in SVOI today. However she is an Alto voice singer (just like poonam last year). Vaishali has a mezzo-soprano voice which does better justice to Lata's soprano voice songs. Rithisha also tried to capture the surs, but it looked more calculated on her part. BTW, in my opinion Rithisha is the best singer in SVOI, why she gets the lowest marks is a yet another story ...for some other time!

Ek Pyar ka Nagma Hai
Vaishali sang Ek pyar ka nagma hai on friday. This is one of my favorite songs, a really heart touching one. Diwakar gave his song a beautiful touch in lilchamps 05.
This time Vaishali gave put her own personal feeling into this song. Some of the harkats like "kahaniiii" gave a really wavy-silky touch to the song. However, her throw for the end-notes like "hai" can be improved. Her run with consistent triple-histories is continuing!
