Indian Idol is one of the most popular singing reality shows on the small screen that has been running for quite a long time. The concept has always been the same but the celebrities on the judges' chair kept on changing. The ongoing Indian Idol season 12 has Neha Kakkar, Vishal Dadlani, and Himesh Reshammiya mentoring the contestants. The latest report states that Bollywood music composer Anu Malik who was once seen as the judge will be making his way on the reality show. Yes, that's true! Not just him but also singer Udit Narayan and lyricist Sameer will grace the 90s special weekend episode of the show.
A report in TOI states, "It is a 90s music weekend episode. Anu Malik composed music for many films in the 90s and his songs were chartbusters. A 90s episode is not possible without Anu Malik so we decided to have him as a guest on the show along with lyricist Sameer and singer Udit Narayan, who rocked the 90s music scene."
