Fresh Face 2017 auditions brought out the best in the student contestants of New Horizon College, Kasturi Nagar, who put up a spirited show that brimmed with enthusiasm, talent and oodles of confidence. Right from the very first contestant to the last, everyone had something interesting to offer, making it really challenging for the judge — model and actress Ekta Rathod — to zero in on the winners.
For the first round, the students put up a mix of talented performances that included singing, dancing, beat boxing, tabla and even solo acting. Contestants such as Bharath Raj (dancing), Archana (singing), Apoorva (dancing) and beat boxers Pramod PK, Harsha and Shawn Micheal stood out with their performances.
After witnessing the contestants’ many talents, Ekta chose five girls and five boys for the final round, for which tricky questions were put forth to them to see how witty and street-smart they were.
