“Swarnali cleared the first round, which had 75 contestants from all over India and 9 from Assam. Then, she went on to the next round with 51 other contestants. This round was judged by the mentors in show and contestants had to sing songs of different genres that they were not used to,” he said.
After that, the show premiered on February 9 with a celebration round where Swarnali was further selected in the Top 30 round. It should be mentioned that 6 other contestants in this round were from Assam, and all girls, noted Swarnali’s father proudly.
After that, she made her way to the top 16 and has currently maintained a strong presence on the show. Besides being a good singer, Swarnali’s USP also sets her apart from a lot of other kids of her age. She can sing in 30 languages, including 22 that are mentioned in the Indian Constitution and in other languages such as English, Italian, Japanese, Korean etc.
She is the daughter of Sandip Acharya, a single parent from Silchar, Assam.
“The most important thing for me is that my daughter should be a good person first. Everything else comes second. But I do hope that people pray for her and support her in this journey to achieve her dreams,” said Acharya.
