For the winners of India’s Best Talent Hunt, the grand finale in Kalyan offered something beyond recognition on stage. Representatives of SMW Media & Entertainment signed agreements with them during the event, opening up opportunities to appear in upcoming music video projects.

Held on October 4 at C.M. Gandhi Auditorium, the finale brought together singers, dancers and models who had qualified through auditions in Kalyan and nearby areas. It gave the shortlisted contestants a platform to present their skills in front of industry professionals and take a step towards possible professional assignments.

A Joint Effort Behind the Event

The project was produced by Shahid Sayed and Sayyed Sameer Husain of S. Sameer Films Production and Nexus Enterprises Films. Their responsibilities covered the full India’s Best Talent Hunt project, including its grand finale.

New Creation Music Academy also played a key role in bringing the event together. Led by Ravi Sir and his team, the academy handled much of the work behind the programme.

Shahbaz Khan and Dr. Syed Sardar Nawab Encourage Contestants

Bollywood actor Shahbaz Khan and World Cycling Champion Dr. Syed Sardar Nawab attended as chief guests. Both watched the performances and appreciated the effort put in by the contestants.

They also spoke about the value of platforms that help artists from cities such as Kalyan reach a wider audience. For participants hoping to build a career in entertainment, the evening offered a chance to perform before people connected with the industry.

Industry Professionals Assess Three Talent Categories

The competition featured separate singing, modeling and dance categories, with professionals from the respective fields involved in the judging.

Choreographers Sagar Shan and Vidya Singh Rawat travelled from Lucknow to judge the dance performances. Rafique Somani assessed the modeling contestants, while director Nitesh Tiwari was associated with the singing category.

Along with judging the performances, the jury shared feedback with the participants. That gave contestants practical observations to reflect on as they continued working on their craft, whether or not they finished among the winners.

A Possible Start to Professional Work

The on-stage agreements with SMW Media & Entertainment were a significant part of the finale. For the selected winners, they created a link between competing at a local talent event and getting an opportunity to work in music videos.

The contestants arrived after making their way through the audition rounds. Some left with a potential next project to look forward to, giving their journey at India’s Best Talent Hunt a chance to continue beyond the final performance.
