Indian Idol 16 Contestant Manav Recalls School Partiality

Manav, who is a contestant on the TV show Indian Idol 16, shared a story about his school days.

When he was about 10 years old, he loved to sing and play music.

However, some of his teachers didn't treat him fairly.

They would sometimes ask him to leave or not let him play his harmonium during breaks.

It seemed like they only paid attention to him if a famous person was visiting.

Despite these challenges, Manav learned to sing by listening to music and taught himself to play the keyboard his father bought him.

He also used a tablet and MP3 player to listen to songs.

Now, he is one of the top 16 contestants on Indian Idol 16, a show judged by singers like Shreya Ghoshal and Vishal Dadlani.
