It was expected for quite some time. <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/swaroop-evicted>Swaroop Khan</a> – the folk singer of <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/shivam-goes-outindian-idol-5-gets-its-top-4>Indian Idol</a> – was sounding monotonous, was being able to sing only a particular genre of songs and was lacking that X factor. That is what everyone felt and finally this week it reflected in the votes as well. Swaroop spoke to TellyChakkar just after his elimination. <strong>You must be taking back a lot of memories from <em>Indian Idol</em>…</strong>

<a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/shivam-goes-out-indian-idol-5-gets-its-top-4>Shivam Pathak</a> is on high spirits even after his elimination from <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/entertainment-3-replace-indian-idol-5>Indian Idol</a>. Consistent performances and constant praise from the judges notwithstanding, Shivam found his way out of the show last night. TellyChakkar spoke to Shivam after the elimination. <strong>Do you think if it had not been for the SMS system you would have made it to the winning line? Didn’t the elimination come as a big shock to you?</strong>

One of the most deserving contestants, <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/shashi-gets-boot-indian-idol>Shashi Suman</a> was shown the exit gate last night in <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/entertainment-3-replace-indian-idol-5>Indian Idol 5</a>. His eviction came as a shock not only to him but also the judges. After shedding tears of disappointment, TellyChakkar caught the eliminated contestant speak his heart out. <strong>You cried a lot after getting eliminated…</strong>

This had to happen sooner than later. Finer singers getting less public patronage in <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/yet-another-girl-arpita-time-bites-idol-dust>Indian Idol</a> isn’t a new phenomenon. This week, it was Arpita Khan’s turn who according to Sunidhi Chauhan was improving with every performance. TellyChakkar spoke to Khan on her elimination… <strong>You looked very sad after your eviction, but now you are at your positive best and smiling. What changed your attitude?</strong>

<a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/vishwas-first-get-indian-idol-5-boat>Vishwas Rai</a>, the 29-year-old singer from Allahabad was the first one to go from <a href= http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/abhijeet-sawant-not-be-part-gala-rounds>Indian Idol-5</a>. Though the judges always praised him looks like the viewers didn’t care much for his talent. TellyChakkar speaks to him to find out what went wrong. <strong>It must have been tough...</strong>
