Indian Idol 3
She was eliminated from the "piano round" and thus lost her chance to enter the Top 13 on Indian Idol 3. However, the judges granted her a spot in the final "Gala Rounds" via a Wildcard Entry. She has garnered much fame thanks to her firecracker performances since then, and her singing has vastly improved despite the comments of many of her own skeptical co-contestants whom she was largely unaffected by. She thrives on audience response and the judges too have been extremely supportive of her performances.

Various Indian Idol 3 Milestones

Danced with all of the judges - started with Anu Malik and Alisha Chenai in her Kanpur auditions itself. Shook a leg with Javed Akhtar, Udit Narayan and even Govinda when he gave a special appearance as a guest judge in Gala 4. Picked up some dance moves from the famous choreographer Ganesh Hegde on the Roobaroo episode aired on August 9th 2007. First entry to the Gala bottom 4 after the 5th Gala - survived and made it to the Top 7. (still awaiting further results). Seems will be eliminated soon because of her sur-less singing
