Chandigarh 17 th August 2020. SA RE GA MA PA, the Hindi musical show which rocked the nation
two decades ago has won over every Punjab’s heart in its mailed edition at Zee Punjabi. The
Punjabi version of this reality show concluded on 15 th August with the grand finale in the form
of a larger-than-life platform where the top contestants hypnotized the audience with the
melodious voice and renditions. The show was judged by stalwarts of Punjabi Film & Music

The top six contestants who reached the grand finale were Sur Sagar, Shubham Lodhi, Mehak
Bhamotra, Mann Sagar, Rahul Rustom and Mamta Bharadvaj. The competition was very tough
for the final round contestants. Sur Sagar won the competition followed by Shubham Lodhi at
second place and Mehak Bamotra at close third. Sur Sagar hails from Nawan Shehr and comes
from a strong musical background has received the mentoring of his father who is a devotional
singer. Sur Sagar is married but his wife lives in Canada who has been cheering for him from
overseas.
Shubham Lodhi from Phillaur has been a surprise ever since the beginning of the show. Simply
because he comes from a family where most of the male members are bouncers! Interestingly,
he was also a bouncer but his strong and sturdy looks pale in comparison to his hold on the
music and melody. Mehak Bamotra, the third position holder hails from Gurdaspur. The girl has
shown impeccable commitment to music; she came for auditions even while she was grieving
for her father’s loss who was the pillar of strength for her. In the audition episode, Gurdas
Maan told her that her father is watching her perform here through his eyes. Since then,
Gurdas Maan has mentored her like his daughter. He even sent her a food luck gift to her for
the grand finale which was given to her post her performance.
Mamta Bharadwaj, another melodious singer ranked fourth while Mann Sagar & Rahul Rustom
shared the fifth place as a tie. Judge Jaidev Kumar was all praises for the enthusiasm and
