Thank you.
If you keep singing like this,
people will shower their love on you.
Let's have a huge round of applause for Priyangshu and Mayuri.
[applause]
I was lost.
Your voice mesmerised me.
It was beautiful and fantastic.
Thank you so much, ma'am.
I am glad we have continued
celebrating Raj Kapoor.
Because his legacy is huge and he has so many great songs
and films. Every song
has been iconic. You performed on one of those.
So, I am very happy that we continue to celebrate
Raj Kapoor's legacy today as well.
- You sang very well. - Thank you so much, ma'am.
Your voices suit the song perfectly. It was really amazing.
I really enjoyed it. Mayuri and Priyangshu, incredible job.
Thank you.
[applause]
Karisma, we have heard that Raj Kapoor never used
glycerine to cry on screen. He cried for real.
Our next singer Ritika is also capable
of crying with any glycerine.
She cries over anything.
If Manasi eats all the chicken,
who will wake us up in the morning?
[crying]
After draining 50 litres of tears, she is coming here to entertain you.
Let's welcome Indian Idol's CRR.
Cry-baby Ritika Raj.

Amazing!
[Ritika singing]
[applause]
[sniffing]
This song is so sentimental!
[sentimental music playing]
Wow! That's how music should connect to people.
- Her mother is sitting there. - I am good. How are you?
She sang the entire song while looking at her mother.
'Anita Singh. Ritika's mother.'
I am okay, son.
What did you feel?
I was thinking about how I'd live after she left.
[sniffing]
I looked at you while singing
because this song is hard.
I knew I would sing well if I looked at you while singing.
[applause]
Please stop crying.
I am infamous for crying. You will also be known for it.
You've not become a mother yet.
You will know it after you become the mother of a daughter.
Correct.
She looked at her mother while singing the entire song.
Her mother started crying, and so did I. We formed a triangle.
No. It's a quadrilateral. Anees is also crying here.
- You, too... - I cried, as well.
It's because of how she sang the song and the lyrics.
- Exactly! - "Whenever"
"the birds chirp, and the sun rises, you will see everything."
[sentimental music playing]
I wonder how we'll live after she leaves us.
I will not go anywhere. I won't get married. Don't worry.
No. Live-in son-in-law.
A daughter never leaves her mother.
Never!
That's true. I don't know how people live without daughters.
Daughters are so crucial for every household.
We cannot breathe without her.
I'm sure she doesn't let you breathe, anyway.
[laughing]
You compelled everyone to cry, including your mother.
Uncle Raj told me back then.
'In this song, you're smiling while singing it,'
'but you have to make the world cry.'
That's what happened.
- Not many weddings take place without this song. - Absolutely!
- Correct. - Isn't it?
You sang exceptionally well.
You've refreshed many memories.
The whole song was right before my eyes
because of the way he filmed it.
He was a unique filmmaker.
He was a God-sent.
[sentimental music playing]
Congratulations! You sang very well.
Thank you so much, ma'am.
Anees sir, you were in this film...
I was in this film.
The way she sang this song
made me emotional.
Also, it reminded me of the moment
she grabs her skirt and twirls.
Raj sir didn't like it.
So, it reminded me of him
because he had enacted that
and showed it.
So, today is a lovely day for me.
It has taken me
back to my childhood
when I was with him. It was my good fortune
that I got the opportunity to work with him.
You sang the song exceptionally well.
All the best. Good luck.
Thank you so much, sir.
Padmini ma'am, you're the OG of this song
and you're here. So, ma'am, could you please
- perform two steps here? - Excellent!
- Please, can you dance here? - Wow!
My dream will come true.
A big round of applause for Padmini ma'am.
[cheering]
Song number one.
Shot number one! Take one! Action!
[sentimental music playing]
Wow!
[sentimental music playing]
Whoo!
So beautiful!
[cheering]
Wow!
Once more!
A big round of applause for Padmini ma'am!
[cheering]
Bihari women are unbeatable!
Thank you.
Judges, please announce the scores.
Vishal sir, every famous actress of Raj sir's time has worked with him.
But the audience
loved to see Nargis ma'am and Raj sir on the screen.
[romantic music playing]
That's the reason why this iconic couple
worked in around 16 movies.
But the 1956 movie, 'Chori Chori', was their last movie together.
[romantic music playing]
This movie was black and white.
But one of its songs, 'Panchhi banu, udti firoon,'
was picturised in technicolour.
Like this song painted that movie,
our next singer, Ragini, painted her family's lives.
So, presenting the face of blessings, Ragini Shinde.
[cheering]
[tabla playing]
[singing]
Wow!

[chorus singing]

[chorus singing]
[cheering]
Ragini, I am moved.
[laughing]
You all surprise me. You sang so well!
Thank you, ma'am.
I want to say something about Lata ma'am.
Lata ma'am and Uncle Raj
knew each other inside-out.
She knew what she was supposed
to sing and what Uncle Raj wanted,
and vice versa.
[romantic music playing]
Lata ma'am often
used to get upset and go to her home.
For those many days, Uncle Raj would sit in front of her building,
Prabhukunj and say,
'This recording will only happen'
'once Lata comes to the studio.'
Then, Lata ma'am was compelled to go.
So, congratulations to you
for the way you sang this song.
Please continue learning and singing the way you are.
- All the best. - Thank you, ma'am.
Ragini, your voice sounded so beautiful for this song.
You have no idea! I had goosebumps.
You did...
[singing]
You hit that note, and I said, 'Badshah,'
'look at this.' That was magical!
[vocalising]
We need singers from this generation who can sing
these songs perfectly and understand them.
You are from the generation alpha.
Your contemporaries will understand these songs because of you.
They will relate to you. Others will also learn. It's such a big thing.
- Thank you, ma'am. - I loved it.
I am biased towards you.
You need not look for my comments. You will sing well.
In fact, I influence everyone here whenever you sing well.
I say it first, 'Look at what she sang.'
I don't give them time to think.
Right from the first note, 'Oh, wow!'
You always sing well.
- But today, I praised first and looked at you. - Yes.
Great job. We enjoyed it.
[tabla playing]
Rishi sir had carved himself from this song.
Today, to carve that song with feel,
Priyangshu Dutta will be coming.
[cheering]
Ma'am, my whole family is here today.
My parents, aunts,
and everyone else is sitting in the front row.
[applause]
Namaste!
- How are you all? - We all are good.
We heard
that today marks the completion
of 100 years of Raj Kapoor sir's birthday.
Our Dutta family is also a big one, like the Kapoor family.
We were delighted to know about it.
We wanted to attend this episode
- and enjoy it live. - Wow!
We are so happy.
I have a question for Karisma, ma'am. 'Ma'am,'
'your family names their children'
'cute names'
'like Lolo, Bebo,'
'Gappu, Chintu...'
It's superb!
That inspired us.
We call Priyangshu as Puttu. He was tiny when he was born.
Wait a second, ma'am.
- Puttu, dear! - Puttu!
He looks so big today, but he was born so tiny.
So, we named him Puttu.
Tiny puttu! Posto!
- Posto? - His name is Posto.
Wow!
I will eat you up with a potato, Posto.
He's so cute.
I have a question for you, ma'am.
Your name is Lolo.
Is there a reason behind that name? We're eager to know it.
- You've come from far away. - Yes.
So, I will come there to speak with you.
- Oh! - Superb!
Yes.
- Hello, everyone. Hi! - Hello, ma'am.
Posto! What does that mean?
'Aloo posto' is a tasty spice.
So, you see.
There is a foreign actress.
Gina Lollobrigida!
Wow!
So, Lolo came from there.
My mom is Sindhi.
So, we eat a flatbread called
'sweet Loli'.
It is also called Lolo.
It was mom's favourite.
So, Lolo came from
both places, and dad named me that.
[cheering]
That confirms my suspicions. There is a reason
- behind your name. - Let me tell you another thing.
After Bebo's birth,
everyone wanted to give her a funny and cute name.
[upbeat music playing]
After Dabbu, Chintu, Chimpu and Lolo,
she needed one, too. So, dad named her Bebo.
[laughing]
Let me tell you one more very important thing.
No one knows about this on national television till now.
Even my grandfather had a nickname.
- Wow! - Oh! - Yes!
Oh, my!
His father,
Prithviraj Kapoor,
and my great-grandmother,
everyone called her Chaiji, endearingly,
used to call him Raje!
Oh! Raje!
So, Raj had become Raje.
Everyone used to say that he looked like a prince
with a fair complexion and blue eyes.
- Wow! - Everyone knows it now.
[romantic music playing]
Priyangshu, you sang extremely well last week.
- Yes, ma'am. Thank you, ma'am. - It also went viral.
I saw it, too.
I have to hear you now.
- Absolutely, ma'am. - Let's do it.
[cheering]
[music playing]
[singing]
Superb!
[singing]
[music playing]
[singing]
Wow!
[singing]
[music playing]
[singing]
[audience cheering]
Wow!
[applause]
Why are they sounding good?
- The voice is unbelievable. - Yes.
- Priyangshu. - Yes, ma'am.
What's happened to you since the last episode?
You seem so different.
If the person you love the most
is in front of you, your performance just skyrockets.
Right?
Priyanshu, you were incredible today.
Thank you so much, ma'am. Means a lot, ma'am.
Priyangshu, I can't believe you haven't learned professionally.
[applause]
I eat fish, too,
so why doesn't my voice sound this good?
Right?
I'd say that if Uncle Raj were here today
and making a film with Ranbir,
- he'd definitely have you sing for it. - Thank you so much, ma'am.
- Means a lot, ma'am. - Yes.
While you were singing, I could see Chintu ji right before my eyes.
I could actually visualise him.
And I could visualise the entire song.
I've seen this film so many times, I can't even tell you.
Fantastic!
- Priyangshu, excellent. - Thank you so much, ma'am.
The last time you sang Vishal Mishra's 'Kaise Hua,'
I got a message from a friend of mine. Siddharth Anand,
who makes big banner films.
A playful banter-filled message came because that's how we talk lovingly.
Saying, 'Who is this guy?'
I said, 'You mean it in a good way, right?'
He replied, 'Yes, he's amazing.'
Then I asked, 'So, what's next?'
He said, 'We'll record together.'
Wow!
You make us so proud.
- Your voice has such longevity. Good luck.
Thank you so much.
Priyangshu, just like Uncle Chintu
was a feel actor,
you are a feel singer.
Thank you so much, ma'am.
The song you sang today is from 'Bobby.'
Before 'Bobby,' there was 'Mera Naam Joker. '
[background song playing]
Today, 'Mera Naam Joker' is considered a classic and cult movie.
But back then, it was way ahead of its time.
And people didn't understand it.
It was art, it was cinema.
But at that time they did not understand this.
Grandpa didn't have any money back then.
He mortgaged his house
to make 'Bobby.'
Conviction.
My grandmother asked him, 'How can you do this?'
Anything can happen. We have five children, a family,
what will we do? But he said, 'No.'
No matter what, I need this money
because I have to make this film.
[background song playing]
It was the first
teenage youth movie in India, we would call it.
So it just shows
the kind of range Raj Kapoor had.
And I think till today we are making love stories.
Every actor dreams of being launched in a love story.
Absolutely!
Amazing!
Well said.
Ms Karisma, just like you carried forward your grandfather's legacy,
Sneha is becoming the face of her grandfather's legacy.
Presenting the new legend of an old legacy, Sneha Shankar.
[applause]
[music playing]
[singing]
[music playing]
[singing]
Wow!
Amazing!
[singing]
Superb!
[audience cheering]
Thank you so much.
Very nice.
Sneha, I think your voice has got so much soul.
Right here!
I just connected to you. I just felt
your soul in this song.
And I think it was just stunning.
Thank you so much, ma'am.
As it is, I am very emotional about this song.
And the songs from this film, because grandfather made everything,
but the film itself was completed by my dad.
[background song playing]
Sneha, performing this song is no child's play.
Look at the variations in this song.
So much is happening. The place itself is so iconic.
[singing]
It is just wow.
If you can sing this, you can automatically sing.
There's a clip of Uncle Raj and Ms Lata singing together.
In fact, we have the clip you're talking about.
Shall we show it?
- I want to see it, I'm telling you, look at that. -Let's watch.
A great command
and great music sense.
He used to sing,
play the piano, the tabla,
and the harmonium.
He loved music but never had formal training.
And every picture,
you'll find
every song has a distinct stamp of Raj Kapoor.
[song playing]
Awesome! Magic!
[applause]
I want to say something on this stage again.
I'm about to cry, which I don't think I should.
But Raj Kapoor is one person
whose songs were superhits
from his first movie to 'Heena,' which we just saw.
The songs were a superhit up until this film.
Awesome!
It's the music and the songs that connect all of us.
All of you here, how beautifully you all sing!
Amazing!
Hats off to you all!
God bless you.
Sneha, tell me something.
You're well aware of how talented a singer you are, aren't you?
[laughter]
Because choosing such a challenging song for this round
clearly shows the confidence
that you know you'll sing it brilliantly
and that we'll all thoroughly enjoy it.
From my side, congratulations.
You sang exceptionally well. God bless you.
Thank you so much, sir.
Judges, please give Sneha her performance scores.
- Sneha, beautiful. Very well done. - Thank you so much.
Vishal sir, Raj sir had asked, 'Pyar Hua Ikrar Hua'
'Pyar Se Phir Kyon Darta Hai Dil?'
Over the last 70 years, only one person has answered
this question, and that's Srijan.
- I knew it. - Srijan says,
the heart fears love because
nowadays, love is costly, while our tears are very cheap.
And when there's a breakup, people laugh at us.
[laughter]
So, instead of becoming a joker in love,
it's better to be a joker and earn people's love.
Coming to win hearts with Mera Naam Joker's song,
here is Srijan Porail, the salesman of singlehood!
[music playing]
[singing]
'Eh bhai!'
Yes!
Wow!
Mindblowing!
[singing]
- What's he doing? - Superb!
[singing]
[music playing]
[singing]
- Wow! - Superb!
Wow!
[singing]
[music playing]
[applause]
[music playing]
'Circus!'
[laughs]
'Yes, sir.'
'This is a circus.'
'And it's a circus'
'with a three-hour show.'
[singing]
Wow!
'After that!'
[singing]
Awesome!
Superb!
[singing]
[reflective silence]
[applause]
[background song playing]
[audience cheering]
Tell me your age again.
Twenty-one.
Srijan, you can't possibly understand what you've just sung.
The second half of this song, where life
is divided into three hours,
holds a depth.
I don't know if you grasp it,
but your voice has that.
[emotive music]
You've broken hearts, mate.
It's a happy-go-lucky song,
a joker's story,
but when things are over,
it leaves a hollow heart.
[emotive music]
Too much, brother!
Thank you so much.
[applause]
Srijan,
that smiling face
and dance,
it has a lot of innocence, love, and cuteness.
But dude, you're a very seasoned, mature artist.
- Thank you so much. - What a singer!
Today was truly the Srijan moment.
Fantastic!
A great comeback.
Thank you so much.
This film, 'Mera Naam Joker,' is very close to my heart.
It contains lessons that even
big, famous movies couldn't teach.
And today, when you performed this song,
the way you sang it,
my heartfelt prayers are with you.
Thank you so much, sir.
Srijan, very well done!
Judges, through the film 'Chori Chori',
Mr Raj Kapoor has given us countless iconic songs.
For instance, "Jaha mein jati hu wahi chale aate ho..."
'Ye raat bhigi bhigi,' 'Aaja Sanam,' 'Madhur chandni me hum...'
Regrettably, this was the final film
that starred both Raj Kapoor and Nargis.
[song playing]
And their on-screen chemistry was so impactful
that its examples are still being given.
Karisma, your family has shared something about the same chemistry.
Let us watch.
I believe his only true affair was with Nargis.
Because he started out with Nargis in 'Aag.'
As a film-maker, was this the last picture?
It happens. Business is like this. The work is of that sort.
It's a business of emotions. There is an attachment.
As I say, a chemistry is born.
[song playing]
He always told me,
'Son, work inspires such connections. You fall in love.'
'You become connected'
'and become emotionally invested.'
'But don't let it consume you to the point'
'where it brings pain and suffering in life.'
'One must endure the hardships.'
'These things are part of life. It happens.'
'My wife is my strength and my heroine is my support.'
'My wife was never my heroine.'
'And my heroine never replaced my wife.'
[applause]
I don't think there has been
a more iconic
love in cinema
like Raj Kapoor and Nargis ji.
Their passion and love...
My mother once told me,
'You are still young.'
'To truly understand the pain,'
'love and passion of romance, '
'watch the films of your grandfather and Nargis ji.'
'You'll gain a deeper understanding.'
So this is actually a Bible
that all the actors of current times
should watch
Raj Kapoor and Nargis ji's cinema
their scenes, and their passion
to understand what love is.
Thank you for this. It has been beautiful.
[applause]
Vishu sir, Raj Kapoor ji
often challenged the society's thinking in his films
and brought about a change in society.
Similarly, to celebrate Raj Kapoor,
our next singer, Anirudh, also challenged himself.
He is set to perform a song in a new style.
So, in 100 Years of Raj Kapoor, presenting
the melodious master who causes destruction, Anirudh Suswaram.
[applause]
[music playing]
[singing]
Mind-blowing! Amazing!
[music playing]
[singing]
Yeah! Amazing!
Wow!
[singing]
[music playing]
Amazing!
- Oi! - Amazing!
Wow!
[singing]
Amazing!
[singing]
Thank you!
Victory!
[song playing]
Oh God!
Anirudh, wildfire!
- Thank you, sir. - I am so happy.
- Thank you, sir.
This feels like a personal victory.
The way you sang, the tone in which you sang
I felt like you were from there.
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
I was enjoying watching you.
Your hard work, your confidence,
your singing.
It felt as though you stepped onto the stage fully prepared,
and yet, you embraced the joy of performing,
which is most vital.
Thank you, sir.
And after that, in Kannada... What language...
- Telugu. - Telugu song, sir, but with Kannada lyrics.
- Kannada lyrics. - Ma'am sang it.
- Telugu song with Kannada lyrics? - Yes.
I mean, a mix of both.
- Mix of both. - Mix of both. - Wow!
You've sung in four languages today. In a single day.
Nobody has accomplished that yet.
Amazing. From someone who struggled with one language,
you've now mastered four with perfection.
- Amazing! - Thanks.
Wow!
I completely agree. The effort you've put in...
How much time did you spend preparing for this?
This doesn't sound like a Hindi accent.
It's distinctly different. You know what I am saying?
Ritika and Vastav assisted me, sir.
- Amazing! - Ritika is from Bihar. - Great job, guys.
I mean, your disciple whom you have trained...
Wow. Incredible. I mean, I was shocked.
Only your body language hinted at you being Anirudh.
Otherwise, the song conveyed nothing else of the sort.
Today, you've demonstrated your true potential on that stage.
Share this performance with your boss.
You won't need to worry about your job. I promise.
Okay? Incredible, brother.
Thank you, sir.
Anirudh, I shall reuse this phrase after a long hiatus...
Today's performance was a play front performance.
- Wow! - Thank you.
[applause]
I never felt, even for a moment,
that this boy doesn't know how to speak Hindi.
Amazing!
Fantastic.
And your transition to 'Sai Andri Nanu' was very surprising.
[singing]
Even I like this song a lot.
Recently, I did a performance in Hyderabad.
Even I sang it in a surprising way in my medley.
I felt like adding it after seeing that.
So, thank you for that little gesture. Thank you so much.
But it was a pan-India performance
in the truest sense. Fantastic!
Judges, please share your scores for Anirudh's performance.
[music playing]
I witnessed the camaraderie among the trio.
Vastav and Ritika helped Anirudh.
This love and friendship
mirror a significant moment in Raj Kapoor Sahab's life.
He did this song that you just sang, Anirudh.
'Chalat Musafir...' It's from 'Teesri kasam.'
The lyricist, Shailendra ji, produced this particular film.
And for this film, Raj Kapoor ji,
he didn't take any fee. He took one rupee to act in it.
So, this is an example of
a very beautiful friendship.
So, may your friendship and this bond continue for a lifetime.
That's what I can say.
God bless. Thank you.
Karisma ji, this week, our singers watched various films
of Raj Kapoor ji and explored his diverse songs.
[music playing]
Well, all except Jyotiprakash.
For the past week, he has been solely focused
on Raj ji's film 'Teesri Kasam.'
Not because he couldn't type the title of the other one...
[laughter]
As he could easily do so with Myscmee's assistance.
And certainly not due to financial constraints.
For Jyotiprakash is quite well-off.
In fact, he chose 'Teesri Kasam' because it features
two bulls owned by Raj Kapoor.
[song playing]
[laughter]
Thus, we present the man whose life revolves around two things:
Cows and singing. Jyotiprakash Ojha from Odisha.
[music playing]
[singing]
[music playing]
[singing]
Thank you so much.
[applause]
Jyoti, what a beautiful song, isn't it?
It is such a beautiful song. It appears simple, but it isn't.
There were many aspects I appreciated.
The formation at the conclusion of the song
[singing]
Whenever you perform your signature lines,
they always captivate me.
Your 'antra' was excellent.
However, I sensed you were struggling with the 'mukhda.'
It is always unsettling to observe
- you grappling with your breath. - Yes.
This impacts the song.
[singing]
Taking frequent pauses
disrupts the continuity of a line before it concludes.
That is my only observation. You have to work on it.
Yes. Absolutely.
The song is inherently lively, but I found no liveliness in it.
I noticed a great deal of discipline instead.
This should not happen at this stage.
Do more breathing exercises.
- I have expectations from you. - Thank you, sir.
I genuinely like you. You also sing exceptionally well.
- You have a lovely voice. Such things must not occur. - Okay.
- Yes. - Okay?
All the best.
[applause]
The natural texture of your voice is beautiful.
Yes.
We have great expectations from you.
- Okay? Good luck. - Thank you, sir.
[applause]
Judges, please announce the scores for Jyotiprakash's performance.
I want to tell you something.
I am very fortunate.
Raj sir used to emote immense love.
The assistants of other directors
were also jealous of us
because
we used to travel by flight with Raj sir.
[whistling]
We used to stay in the same five-star hotel as that
of Raj sir's.
However,
Raj sir's anger would frighten us.
But whatever he said in the heat of the moment
has been like a blessing to me.
The state I am in today
and whatever little fame I have
would never have been possible if I hadn't worked with Raj sir.
[applause]
My dad
had become the assistant for a movie
that grandpa and Rajendra Kumar sir were doing.
Dad was a young boy of around 16 or 18 years.
So, he said,
'Send my son on the third-class train.'
'He will be the last to last assistant.'
What was my father's job?
He didn't even get to the clap like Anees sir did.
He used to clean Rajendra Kumar sir's shoes.
[mellow music playing]
Raj sir said, 'My oldest son'
'will start from scratch.'
'If you want to be the assistant,'
'clean his shoes before the take'
'and observe what's happening.'
- Wow! - So...
that was his teaching.
'If you want to become something,'
'start from here and go ahead step by step.'
[mellow music playing]
The sky has many stars but a few stars disintegrate.
But Mr Raj Kapoor is such a star
who's brightness is intact even after decades.
But from his first movie, Awaara,
to becoming a star, he went through lots of uncertainties.
Let's watch a glimpse of our legend's life.
'In 1924'
'in Peshawar's Kapoor palace'
'on 14th of December'
'the showman of Indian cinema was born.'
'Mr Raj Kapoor.'
'At the age of 23, Mr Raj Kapoor'

Thank you, Indian Idol.
Sorry, I am getting very overwhelmed.
He just loved films.
And I think that is something
that has come down through the generations.
Thank you for giving him so much love.
Thank you so much, Indian Idol.
[applause]
If you take a look at all the Kapoors,
In every era, there has been at least one Kapoor
who represented that era.
This literally means having a cinema in blood.
He has not only given his legacy during his time
but also given great stars to the next generations.
That is what a true legacy is.
[applause]
I am happy that we can imbibe and carry them forward.
I just want to say that in August, while I was in France,
I met a Romanian guy
who was around 23 years old, a paraglider,
he asked me what I do.
I said I work for Indian cinema.
He was just 22-23 years old, he asked me if I knew Raj Kapoor.
[music playing]
- 'That's true.' - I mean,
all of us carry his legacy
forever. It's not just for the family,
it's a very big privilege for all of us.
