This season, the idea is to take the show to new heights with a stellar panel of mentors whose melodies have captured every emotion of India and some incredible new voices that have the power to touch your soul. What makes this season truly special is our deeper connection with the audience—earlier this year, we launched ‘Hamara Parivar’, a direct line to our viewers, allowing us to listen to their feedback and preferences.
