Oman’s Asma a hit with Indian audience

Omani singer Asma Mohammed Rafi has been voted out of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa, Zee TV’s popular talent show, last week. Asma, who has no formal training in music, had reached the last six stage with the mere support of audience who loved her innocent, chirpy, bubbly and humourous ways more than her singing abilities. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Asma added value to the talent show by just being Asma – there was something genuine about her. The producers of the show were so amazed at the TRPs which Asma brings to them that they decided she will be the co-host after her exit. So from last week, she reappeared on the stage as a co-anchor. Asma has done her bit of branding for Oman, Muscat as well in the process because not many people earlier in India knew about the two names — Muscat and Oman.
