Anjali
Gaikwad
was
recently
eliminated
from
Indian
Idol
12.
The
contestant's
exit
had
upset
many
fans
as
they
felt
she
is
one
of
the
talented
singer
and
had
even
urged
makers
to
bring
her
back
on
the
show.
She
had
even
said
that
she
was
a
bit
disappointed
but
added
that,
that's
how
the
show
works
as
someone
or
the
other
had
to
get
eliminated.
She
had
also
reacted
to
fans
demanding
Shanmukhapriya's
elimination.
Now,
in
a
recent
interview
with
ETimes
TV,
Anjali
revealed
the
biggest
compliment
she
got
on
the
show
and
even
reacted
to
Amit
Kumar
controversy.
She
said
that
the
biggest
compliment
that
she
received
on
the
show
was
from
AR
Rahman
sir
who
said
that
whenever
he
wants
to
listen
to
classical
music,
he
watches
Anjali
Gaikwad
and
her
sister
Nandini's
videos.
She
said
that
she
never
ever
imagined
in
her
life
that
a
living
legend
like
AR
Rahman
sir
would
compliment
her.
She
added
that
she
will
cherish
the
compliment
for
a
lifetime.
She
further
said
that
it
was
like
a
blessing
for
her
sister
and
her,
and
her
entire
family
was
very
happy
and
elated
to
hear
it.
She
considers
it
as
an
achievement.
Anjali
also
said
that
it
was
her
dream
to
meet
Pyarelal
ji
and
perform
in
front
of
him,
and
she
got
to
meet
him
on
the
show.
She
also
said
that
Bollywood
diva
Rekha
giving
her
blessing
was
the
most
memorable
moment
of
her
life.
Further,
she
spoke
about
Amit
Kumar
controversy.
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
fans
didn't
like
Kishore
Kumar
special
episode
(which
was
graced
by
his
son
Amit
Kumar)
as
they
felt
contestants
ruined
his
melodies.
Regarding
the
same,
Anjali
said,
"I
know
we
were
criticised
by
people
on
social
media,
but
I
don't
look
at
it.
I
look
at
the
love
we
got
from
the
fans
and
the
audience.
We
got
blessings
from
everyone.
I
don't
want
to
name
anyone
but
I
know
that
people
were
commenting
about
a
few
contestants
from
us
that
they
were
not
performing
well.
But
I
don't
look
at
it
like
that,
all
of
us
just
ignored
these
comments.
We
were
only
concerned
about
our
singing
and
we
wanted
to
keep
our
focus
on
singing
and
not
get
distracted
by
these
comments.
It
is
not
our
job
to
look
at
these
comments
and
get
bothered.
Our
job
is
to
entertain
people
with
our
singing,
perform
well
and
people
should
know
us
as
good
singers.
I
don't
look
at
these
comments
as
I
am
not
that
active
there,
my
only
goal
in
life
is
to
sing
better.
In
fact,
the
other
8
contestants
from
Indian
Idol
12
also
feel
the
same
and
that's
the
reason
we
never
get
nervous
while
performing
or
we
never
discuss
or
get
worried."
Anjali
said
that
that
none
of
them
were
affected
by
the
trolling
and
added,
"I
can
say
this
on
behalf
of
all
the
contestants
that
none
of
us
got
affected
by
the
controversies
or
the
negative
comments.
Also,
the
judges
who
came
on
the
show
and
gave
their
opinion
are
legends
and
we
respect
them.
Whatever
the
guests
have
commented
is
their
opinion
and
we
totally
respect
it.
Our
job
is
to
consider
their
suggestions
and
improve
our
singing.
I
think
ups
and
downs
are
part
of
life.
Sometimes
you
get
appreciation
and
there
are
times
when
you
have
to
face
criticism."
She
also
said
that
they
were
not
disheartened
when
Amit
Kumar
ji
said
that
he
did
not
enjoy
the
episode
and
their
singing.
She
added
that
it
is
his
opinion,
he
was
their
guest
and
they
respect
him
and
his
opinion.
She
also
added
that
they
had
taken
and
noted
his
suggestions,
and
are
working
on
it.
