Sannidanandhan was a star participant. As rightly described in his sent off speech ‘ No other contestant in any reality show has had so much fan following’. Episode after episode he edged out competition even if they were superior singers. Such was his charm. But he is now not in the Quarters. In a marking where SMS got lesser weight age, he lost and was given a standing ovation. Two judges announced that their friends from gulf wanted then to give him cheques worth 25000 and 2lakhs when he was going out. And an emotional Sannidanandhan promised to part 50001 to the family of his deceased Friend.
