Season 11 of Indian Idol rolled over the weekend. The channel did not organise a launch event nor did they issue media releases about the date of telecast. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to decipher why.

The judges of the new season include Anu Malik, Neha Kakkar and Vishal Dadlani. Last year, Malik was called out in the wake of the #MeToo movement. Later, the veteran composer left the show mid-way. The channel preferred to keep it low-key to avoid answering any unwanted questions.
