Each finalist performed on 2 tracks and enthralled the audience with their breathtaking renditions of the songs. Harpreet Kaur, from Bareilly, stood out amongst all the finalists to become the winner of the #Intezaar edition of VYRL Coverstar. The evening ended on a high note with Mithoon and Asees’s surprise performance leaving the crowd spellbound.

Talking about the finale of Vyrl Coverstar, Mithoon shared,The grand finale of VyrlCoverstar has been the most a unique experience for me because as a composer I have put out so many songs, but once I finish a song I just move on to the other because of which there are a certain isolation and disconnect that comes between me and my songs. But here I am back to my song Intezaar after I put it out which has been there for more than a month. And I was delighted to see people come and perform for us from all over the country. We got to know that there were more than 2000 entries that came for this and to see the best 12 of them live who interpreted the song in different ways, to hear what they felt, what they thought about each line and put it out, it was very -very refreshing for me as a musician and that's why I couldn't hold back and I just picked a moment and jumped on the stage and I joined the musician team and I played it myself. I think Vinit, Mohit, Asees and I had a great time.”

Talking about Vyrl Coverstar – Intezaar Edition, Mohit shared,I had a great time watching all 12 finalists perform their versions of Intezaar, each being unique in its own way. There are very few platforms like this that exist in our country that gives opportunities to budding musicians to showcase their talent in front of artists. I am happy that I was a part of this awesome evening that celebrated music.”

This was such an incredible experience, all the contestants sang really well. It is a great opportunity for budding artists to sing in front of Mithoon Sir, Mohit Sir, and Vinit Sir and such opportunities come very rare and it was very evident that all the finalists put in their 100%. I had a great time watching each of their Performances as they were so amazing. This edition of VyrlCoverstar was truly bigger and better”, shared Asees Kaur.
