It was most unexpected. But shocking results have become the norm on Indian Idol. The three contestants standing in the bottom three this week were the most talented Bhavya Pandit, the good-looking and talented Mohit Lalwani and Bhanupratap. Bhanu's performances have been off colour in the past few weeks. While Anu Malik's blue-eyed girl Bhavya has been working against all odds to prove her worth. Mohit has always won accolades for his performances. But when Bhanu was declared safe this week, the choice was like choosing between the devil and the deep sea.

It was not Mohit's day. The music graduate from Ramjas College, Delhi bid good bye to the Indian Idol stage after making a remarkable return in the Wild Card Entry. But it is not good bye to music and singing he promised. He promises to be back in Mumbai and along with his best buddy Prasenjit Kosambi he hopes to do some great work in music. Meanwhile he is going to pray hard that Prasenjit wins the title this year. Great dosti going on here...

Stay tuned to Indian Idol to watch the journey on Top 8 contestants every Friday-Saturday on Sony Entertainment Television.
