However, though it was a proud moment, some netizens are of the opinion that Vaishnav could not perform well on Sunday and suggested the lack of preparation was evident in his performance.

Meanwhile, Vaishnav, who has participated in many music reality shows, rose to fame with his performances in the second season of Indian Idol Junior. He was the third runner-up of the national show and is currently the participant of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs aired on Zee TV.
