Singing contestants earn a lot, says Javed Akhtar
Javed Akhtar is enjoying the process of judging emerging talent. He alo claims that the singers take a lot in their booty after they come out on their own.
He says, “Roop Rekha from Fame Gurukul or Abhijeet Sawant from Indian Idol 1 may not be singing film songs. But they’re earning more than what they ever dreamt of.
Many of these contestants come from extremely modest backgrounds. At the least they finish from the show with many live shows in their kitty.â€
