Mumbai: Indian Idol 12 concluded after eight long months with Pawandeep Rajan emerging as the winner of the show.

He was quoted as saying, “When I first came for the audition, I was very scared of what would happen and if I would be selected. In fact, I had no hopes because Sawai had sung before me and he was brilliant, and since I was there, I sang whatever I could and to my surprise I was selected. So the journey on the show has been incredible and great. I have found new friends on the show.
