Instagram also promoted some of the contestants and one of them is Amrutha Varshini. She sang Andela Ravamidi song and got the Golden ticket.

*Next on Telugu Indian Idol*
The Theatre round will begin in the Telugu Indian Idol next week.
*M9News’s Take*
The organizers tried to generate fun in the show by making some participants sing. Instead of that, they should have showcased the performances of a few singers who got the Golden tickets. The fun that is being generated in the show, however, is artificial and is only bringing a negative impression on the show. Let us hope that the show will undergo a revamp for the Theatre round.
