Music director and singer Vishal Dadlani, who has been judging the music reality TV show Indian Idol for the past six years, is going to take a break. Vishal took to his Instagram and shared an update with his fans and followers that he has finally decided to quit the show. He shared a video in which he was joined by his fellow judges, Indian Idol co-judges Shreya Ghoshal and Badshah.
He replaced their audio with Christian 21's Time. In the note, Vishal mentioned he has been stuck in Mumbai for the past six years, and now he will be leaving the show: "because he can’t stay stuck in Mumbai for 6 months each year. Time to get back to making music, playing concerts, and almost never putting on make-up.
" The words on the video read, "That's all from me, folks! Six straight seasons later, tonight is my last episode as a judge on Indian Idol. I hope the show will miss me as much as I'll miss it. Thanks, Shreya, Badshah, Adi, Aradhana, Chitra, Anand ji, Sonal, Pratibha, Sahil, Saloni, Muskaan, Abisha, the entire production crew, Vilas, Pakya, Kaushik (Pinky), and all the co-judges, singers, and musicians down the years! It really has been home!! That stage is pure love!" Vishal wrote in his post, "Alvida, yaaro.
6 seasons mein jitna mazaa kiya, uss se bhi zyada yaad aayegi (Goodbye friends. I'll remember this much more than the fun I had in 6 seasons. @shreyaghoshal @badboyshah @adityanarayanofficial #IndianIdol @fremantleindia @sonytvofficial @aradhanabhola @chitralangeh.
Haqq se zyada pyaar milaa hai, iss show ki vajah se (Have gotten more love than I could ask for from this show). Eternally grateful to everyone involved." Vishal then went on to thank the team of Indian Idol.
"I hope the show will miss me as much as I’ll miss it. I’m literally only leaving because I want my time back. Can’t stay stuck in Mumbai for 6 months each year! (Airplane, globe, and seedling emojis).
