What is medley ???

With the Medley round in Airtel Super Singer 2008 had started the question raised in me to know what is medley round exactly in singing and what does the judges expect from the contestant. I just googled and found these info.. just the meaning of medley is - a mixture of things that are not usually found together and with respect to music - a piece composed from parts of existing pieces, played one after another, sometimes overlapping.

To be frank all our contestants did this but Prasanna and Renu were told that their song selection is not proper and its not the actual medley. Then looking at other performances I think judges expect mixture of songs and they should not be of same type... it should differ with their raagam or style and thats where you put your imagination of bringing them together.
