While the judges and Pyarelal ji shared several anecdotes from their career and got all nostalgic, one revelation by Pyarelal Ji left everyone intrigued.
Right after contestant Madhav Arora performed to Reshmi Zulfein and Dard-e-dil, Pyarelal Ji revealed a big secret about the late Mohammed Rafi's morning routine. He revealed how Rafi ji used to wake up early in the morning and boil dry fruits like Almonds and Pistachios. He further added how the legendary musician would then add the water extracts from it in his dry fruits special tea. As Pyarelal ji said, "Rafi Ji used to carry 2 big kettles during his recording studio visits. It was something that made him happy. So, whenever he would get upset with anyone, everyone knew his weakness – tea. I remember when he was upset with me, I told him, 'Rafi ji please give me some tea.’ He would happily tell his team, 'sir ko chai pilao', and everything would be okay." Interesting, isn't it?
With veteran composer Pyarelal Sharma and his wife Sunila Sharma in the house, the viewers will have a gala time with songs of 60s, 70s, 80s being sung by the supremely talented Li'l Champs. While Satish Kumar gave a spectacular performance singing Nayak nahi khalnayak hun main, Ranita Banerjee's performance to Suno sajna won the audience's hearts. All in all, the upcoming episode of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li’l Champs will have a lot of melodies and surprises for the viewers.
