On Sunday night, Sourabhee Debbarma from Agartala, capital of India's Tripura state, made history by becoming the first woman to win the coveted Indian Idol title since its inception four years ago. She can also thank a blackout and a telecom mess in Nepal for her victory.
The 23-year-old singer had versatility, oomph and the support of the judges.
But she could also partly owe her triumph to another contributing factor: the nearly 20-hour daily blackout that has nearly isolated India's northern neighbour Nepal from happenings in the rest of the world.
