VIDEO:

He isnt trained, and isnt that versatile.
But he has the support of the police force. So who knows!!

thanks prashant u r a grat guy.keep going as long as u can rest of the way we will be there for u.

Crystal Cracker bro,
No offence hai!! But I think he is one of best performer among all!!If he isn't trained and isn't versatile, he sure carries magic in his voice!!

YOU ROCK PRASHANT!! GO DAJ BOY GO!! BEST OF LUCK

juggy I second that..about his voice.
And who said they have to be trained to perform well on Indian Idol or any idol.. Some of our best vocals were never trained.

Now..how about that chinese guy? I think he rocks as well...either prashant or mei something.
:)

I thought his voice came across much better in this episode than in the previous one (the one where he had marched up to the judges and saluted after being selected :P).

I wish him the best.

:)

Goodluck Prashant

What is India Idol? Never heard before..
Is it like the American Idol? Indians copied the show? Dhotis after all...They know nothing but copying...

Indeed a matter of great pride for Nepalis all over. Prashant sure does have an awesome voice. I salute him -- in his police style -- and to Udit Narayan too -- for proudly conversing, albeit briefly, in Nepali in such a popular program on Indian TV.

Salutations to other Indians involved in the program too for highlighting the tolerance within a pluralistic culture of their nation by providing a minority such a great platform, at least in this instance. This despite the fact that India sure does have it's share of many problems in this regard.

I wish I could vote for him from the US. Can I? If so, we should all do it!

GO PRASHANT TAMANG. I AM FULLY BEHIND YOU.
GO AND KICKED DHOTIS IN THEIR OWN IDOLS CONTEST.

.

Hey Poonte, if you do find a way to vote him from here, please do let me know. Exploitation of talents through these programs is indeed worth praising.

Good luck to Prashant and he sure does good!

Seems like people r following Indian Idol..yes, Prashant is good..hope he wins :)

wow, that's one of my favorite nos. from bollywood. :P

smart guy, chose the right kinda song for his kinda vocal. good luck prashant! Bahut Ramro Gaunu bhayo :D

His vocal is awesome. When Javed Akhtar asked him which language he speaks and when he answered back "nepali"... I felt so proud. Keep rocking Prashant. The elimination will be today and I am sure u are going for the second piano round. BOL. Wanna see the same thing tomorrow also....

Great voice Prashant!!! Good luck!

hi prashant keep on giving the same kind of performance

but what i wouldlike to say is next time dont =hesitate tio say that he speaks nepali
like her did in the round

Isn't this the original one whcih prashant sang in Indian Idol? BTW, Who "claims" to be the "music Director" of this bollywood song? Such a blatant case of plagiarism.

From the police barracks to Indian Idol

Statesman News Service
KOLKATA, June 3: The headquarters of Kolkata Police at Lalbazar and all the police stations in the city have been flooded with posters requesting the cops to vote for one of their colleagues who is participating in the Indian Idol 3.
A constable of the seventh battalion of the Kolkata Police, Mr Prasant Tamang, is a vocalist in the city police’ band. He is now in Mumbai to compete in the Indian Idol competition. The 24-year-old youth is a resident of Darjeeling district.
Joint commissioner of police (armed police) Mr Zulfikar Hassan said nearly 1,500 posters and a few hoarding had been circulated all around the city by Kolkata Police. The posters have been put up on the walls at the Kolkata Police head quarters, local police stations, bodyguard lines and all other establishments of the city police. Not a single paisa was, however, used from the Kolkata Police funds.
The entire money was contributed by their colleagues. “The idea is to increase the chances of the constable who is competing in the Indian Idol. The city police has a 26,000-strong force and if each one of us votes for him through SMS, then he will be in an advantageous position. The rest will depend on his performance”. On Saturday, when Mr Tamang’s performance was aired on a television channel, his colleagues had a gala time watching his performance on a giant screen at the Body Guard lines at Alipore.
A senior police officer said: “His performance was shown on a giant screen after a function which was organised for chief minister Mr Buddhadeb Bhttacharjee to inaugurate the seventh barrack building. Hundreds of policemen had gathered on the spot to cheer for their colleague who is now performing in the Indian Idol”.
He also said that Mr Tamang was well-known for his talent among his colleagues but was not getting the encouragement to participate in big competitions. It was after the Indian Idol 2 that he showed interest in participating in the competition and was encouraged by his colleagues. The news soon reached the top brass of Kolkata Police (armed police) who made the necessary arrangements.

Prashant ROCKS........................!!!!

and we all know UDIT has already rocked!!!

Great Guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck Prashant..Talk in Nepali with Udit....!! I love Udit
