Uzbek star names strongest rival for Silk Way Star grand finale
Uzbekistan's Madinabonu Adilova, a finalist of the first Asian vocal mega-project Silk Way Star, shared her impressions on Búgin.Live program, Qazinform News Agency reports.
According to the singer, the caliber of the project participants is exceptionally high, making serious rivalry hard to discuss. Nevertheless, among all the contestants, she specifically highlighted Armenia's representative, Saro Gevorgyan.
"We are all professionals here. We all sing incredibly well. However, if we are talking about a rival, I really, really want to surpass Saro Gevorgyan. He is the contestant from Armenia," Madinabonu Adilova shared.
"I love him very much. He is awesome. I think he is the most talented person on this project and a pure professional. Every show is stable for him; he has no bad performances," she continued.
The artist noted that she sees the show as a creative challenge rather than direct competition. Moreover, Madinabonu highlighted the friendly atmosphere, explaining how she keeps in touch with her colleagues off-air.
"He is a friend of mine, and we talk often. We have a shared group chat where we all communicate. That is, we have a very friendly atmosphere on the project," the singer added.
