We started with 3500 contestants through online auditions and the musical journey of 8 months has traversed its way with the top 6 for an unforgettable musical evening. With the Grand Finale around the corner, viewers are eagerly waiting to know the winner of this season. It is difficult for the judges to choose from the best and declare one winner. For me every single contestant along with the entire Zee Sarthak family is the winner for showing such determination amidst adversities to keep audience entertained over the weekends. Sa Re Ga Ma Pa SWARARA MAHAMANCHA has already became a thumping hit not only to the Odia viewers but also to the Indian audiences at large. The show has been scoring well on the TRP charts as well. We all had gone through a tough phase during 2020-21 and the shooting was off for few months due to second wave of the ongoing pandemic. We hope to continue enthralling our discerning audience with great content and come back again with a new season.”
