Indian Idol, India’s most popular music stage, is back for its 16th season on Sony Entertainment Television. This time, it’s not just the music that moves people; it’s the feelings behind every note. The show “Yaadon Ki Playlist: Jahaan Awazein Aaj Wali Aur Gaane Aap Wale” has a nostalgic theme. It mixes the great songs of the 1990s with the powerful voices of today.
Sankalp Yaduvanshi, a name that many fans recalled from Indian Idol Junior, had some of the most emotional moments this season. His return to the stage wasn’t just about getting another opportunity at fame; it was a story of strength, sorrow, and love that never ends.
When Sankalp came on stage, the crowd saw that he was calm and that his mother was standing quietly behind him. A few minutes later, his story made everyone cry.
He said gently, “My parents broke up after Indian Idol Junior.” “My dad told me once that I wasn’t his son.” That broke something in me. But my mom always believed in me. We only had music in common, and she’s the reason I’m still here.
As Sankalp’s mother wiped her tears, the audience went quiet. She was very proud. His performance wasn’t just a song; it was a tribute to her strength.
Judge Shreya Ghoshal couldn’t help but cry when she saw Sankalp as a child contender years ago. “I remember your voice from Junior Idol,” she said. “Your mother’s smile just now said it all.” You have carried her dreams on your shoulders, and I really respect your bravery.
What a beautiful talk that was about Indian Idol. It’s a place where dreams and feelings come together, and music can heal hurts that words can’t.
The scores have also shown the sad parts, strong voices, and memories. A new report from Media Feed says that Indian Idol had a 2.9 TRP for the week ending October 26, 2025. From last week’s 2.7, this is a big jump. It is now one of the top three non-fiction shows on Indian TV.
The Diwali special episode and Sankalp’s emotional return were two big reasons for this spike. People all around India watched stories that seemed real and accessible, which is why Indian Idol is still the most popular show on the weekends.
While other shows have come and gone, Indian Idol has stayed on top this season. The contestants are from all over India, and their acts are honest and moving. There are three great judges: Shreya Ghoshal, Vishal Dadlani, and Kumar Sanu. They know a lot about music and how it makes people feel. Each show has a lot of music.
It’s been fun to bring the show back to life with two special nights: the Bollywood Retro Special and Family Tribute Week. A lot of people are talking about #IndianIdol2025 and #SankalpYaduvanshi on social media all week, which keeps fans excited.
There are a lot of great TV shows right now, like Bigg Boss 19 and Dance Plus, but Indian Idol is still going strong. The most up-to-date TRP table shows:
