Indian Idol Season 15 has been keeping viewers entertained with its musical talent and engaging moments. In an upcoming episode, contestant Manasi Ghosh surprises everyone with her sharp questions, turning the tables on the judges and the special guest, Neelam.
A recently released promo by Sony TV offers a glimpse into the light-hearted yet amusing exchange. The judges , Badshah, Shreya Ghoshal, and Vishal Dadlani along with Neelam, find themselves on the receiving end of Manasi’s witty queries. Neelam encourages the contestant to proceed, saying she’s eager to see the judges’ reactions.
Manasi’s first question lands on Badshah, asking him to name his rival. Badshah pauses, contemplating his response. Vishal quickly steps in with a mischievous grin, remarking, “I have an answer for this.” His humorous twist on one of Badshah’s own songs leaves the panel laughing. Although Badshah remains silent on naming a rival, the moment subtly brings back memories of his past rivalry with rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh.
Next, Manasi challenges Badshah with a rapid-fire question about actress Tara Sutaria. Badshah, under pressure, blurts out, “Phantom of the Opera.” Amused, Manasi questions his choice. Badshah defends his unexpected response by pointing out the mere two-second window she gave him. In good spirits, Manasi teases him about his earlier hesitation, noting how he struggled to name a rival in the same time frame. Unable to hold back his laughter, Badshah lowers his mic in amusement.
Manasi then directs her playful interrogation toward Shreya Ghoshal, asking her to name someone who is fake. Shreya thinks carefully, visibly caught off guard by the tricky question. After a pause, she admits with a smile, “Naam joh yaad aa rha hai voh nahi bata sakti”. Despite Manasi’s playful insistence, Shreya remains tight-lipped, leaving the audience in fits of laughter.
Finally, Manasi shifts her attention to Neelam, requesting her thoughts on Badshah. Neelam, joining in on the light-hearted spirit, references his hit song “Jugnu.” This sparks an impromptu dance session as the judges and contestants groove to the upbeat track, bringing the segment to a joyful close.
The delightful exchange has already garnered positive reactions online. Sony TV’s caption on the promo reads, “Nothing is more fun than watching Manasi put our judges in the hot seat!” The show, judged by Shreya Ghoshal, Vishal Dadlani, and Badshah, continues to captivate viewers with its blend of musical brilliance and entertaining moments.
