    Delhi government launches app to scout singing, dancing talent

    To give a platform to aspiring singers and dancers in the city, the Delhi-government'>Delhi Government today launched a mobile application that would allow deserving applicants down to the ward-level to showcase their talent on a big stage. Named as "Delhi's Date with Democracy", the app is an initiative of the government's department of art, culture, and languages. Here are more details.

    There is so much talent in Delhi: Sisodia

    Deputy CM Manish Sisodia said, "There is so much talent in Delhi, but not all get the opportunity to make it to TV shows or films. We want to lend a platform for such aspiring singers and dancers who dream big but do not have the route to reach there." For this initiative, Sahitya Kala Parishad and Delhi Kalyan Samiti collaborated with the government.

    There is no age limit for candidates

    "There is no age limit, and interested candidates can start sending their entries in both categories viz singing and dancing, from tomorrow onwards. The whole process would take about 1 month," Sisodia said. The last date for sending entry online is 29 March. The duration of an entry should not be more than 5 minutes. Reportedly, the event is open only to Delhi residents.

    Selected candidates would get an alert on app

    "Any potential applicant for singing section can choose from a package of 30 pre-loaded songs in karaoke format. The applicant then would have to sing, and on the basis of that he/she would be judged," an official of Sahitya Kala Parishad said. She said, selected candidates would get an alert on the app, following which selections would be held across 272 wards in Delhi.

    Grand finale would be held at CP, Sisodia

    "From wards, we will move to Vidhan Sabha level and then to cluster district level and eventually to Delhi level," Sisodia said. The grand finale would be held at Central Park in Connaught Place where the winning candidates would get a chance to sing and dance with famous singers and dancers, officials said. Reportedly, personalities from art and culture field will be among judges.
