Support Hemachandra

Lovers of mellifluous music and viewers of Zee TV would be well aware of their flagship program Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. Over the years this program has introduced to the Indian films talents like Shreya Ghoshal (Dola Re Dola) , Kunal Gunawala (Bheege Hont Tere etc), Sanjeevani Bhelance (kareeb) and Sneha Pant (Kyo Ho Gaya Na and Masti). In this season of 2005, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa is conducting its first reality show - Challenge 2005 A Musical Mahayudh. After an all India audition of over 1 Lakh hopefuls, the judges (Jati Lalit, Aadhesh Shrivsatava, Himesh Rehsmmiya and Ismail Darbar) selected 32 participants for the final fray and after several gruelling rounds have short listed 8 contestants and further 2 participants will be selected by way of public vote.

Hemachandra (18 years), proud son of Andhra, is one of the selected finalists and in fact is the only representation from South India. Born in a family of musicians and scholars, Hemachandra has given his first performance at tender age of 5. He won several awards at state and national competitions for his singing talent. Hemachandra gave numerous stage shows in the presence of eminent singers like Sri SP Balasubrahmanyam, Sri PB Srinivas, Smt. S Janaki, Sri Kumar Sanu, Sri AR Rahman and Sri Lata Mangeshkar. Hemachandra has also made a humble beginning in playback singing singing 2 songs in the recently released Telugu Movie - Vamsham.

In Sa Re Ga Ma Pa 2005 competition, Hemachandra consistently obtained the GREEN CARDS in the qualifying rounds to pass to the next round with his excellent rendition of the songs like
Haa Yehi Rastaa Hai, (Episode 9: http://sifymax.in/saregamapa/videos/week2/)
Lekar Hum Diwane Dil (Episode 29: http://sifymax.in/saregamapa/videos/),
Pehla Pehla Pyar Hai (Episdoe 17: http://sifymax.in/saregamapa/videos/week4/).

His command over the voice, sur and emotions has been appreciated by all the judges time and again and Aadesh Shrivastav commented after one of Hemachandra's performance "Iska gaane sunke mere romte khade ho gaye".

The stage is set now to select the winner of the contest(from the 12) by way of multiple rounds of public voting in this year's Zee Sa Re Ga Ma Pa challenge 2005. Telugu music lovers have always been supportive of new talent and also perceive the need to promote budding singers who will try and fill in the big shoes of SPB in the future. This is the time to act and support this new singing sensation who undoubtedly will, in the future, entertain all of us with his skill.
