Star Plus' musical reality show Amul Voice of India has zeroed in on 11 of the most powerful voices from all over India. One amongst these voices will be voted out.
Mallika's eyes twinkled as she spoke to the contestants saying, "I'm from a small town myself and have undergone a lot of struggle to be wherever I am. I understand what you are going through right now. It's not easy to stand there, sing and be judged. It needs courage." The contestants drew strength from her words to face the eliminations.

This Friday, watch the participants fight it out to give their best performance to woo Mallika. To make matters worse for the 11 young and talented singers, the judges announced that they are also in the race to become Mallika's Salim. Mallika Sherawat would choose her Salim by putting a ring on his finger.
Even the female contestants caught Paresh Rawal's attention with their flawless singing. They requested him to select his Anarkali from amongst them. Even anchor Shaan seemed so completely smitten by Mallika that he kept fumbling his lines. "This is the Mallika effect" said the singer jokingly.
To match the mood of the evening, all the contestants were dressed as Salim-Anarkali; Also the stage of Amul Star Voice of India was decorated like a courtyard-A musical durbar. The song selection was apt for the occasion.
