Star Singer: Arjun grabs 'Golden Star' for Kadhal Sadugudu; pianist Shinu steals the show

Star Singer contestants often leave the judges as well as viewers with their mesmerizing performances. But, this time, the show stealer was none other than pianist Shinu.


In the recent episode, contestant Arjun has grabbed attention with his soulful rendition of AR Rahman's all-time romantic Tamil hit song 'Kadhal Sadugudu.' From his soulful singing to mesmerizing improvisations, Arjun clearly nailed it. But what made the performance was the final piano bit by the pianist Shinu. As a concluding note in the performance, Shinu has added a piano bit, apparently arranged by him, and he just killed it! The judges, contestants, and even the audience were seen giving a standing ovation for the musician's act.


Undoubtedly, KS Chithra, the judge, gave a golden star, 100 marks for Arju. Notably, the singer said that the 100 marks are for both Arjun and Shinu. During the Golden Star celebration, host Mithun Ramesh also mentioned that it is certainly one of the most memorable performances in Star Singer. Sharing his judgment on Arjun's singing, Vidhu shared that he was sure that this evergreen song would be safe in the contestant's hands.


Star Singer continues to be the much-loved music reality show on Malayalam TV. The show, which is inching toward the final round of the competition, currently progresses with the 'Do or Die' round, where the contestants challenge each other.


Arjun is one of the popular contestants on the show. From romantic numbers to dance numbers, he has won hearts with his diverse performances in the show. In one of the recent episodes, he gained much applause for his duet performance with Dilraj, rendering 'Khwaja Mere Khwaja.' Interestingly, in the recent episode, Arjun also welcomed his family onto the stage, and his mother's cute interaction with KS Chithra was much loved by viewers.
