A New Era of Indian Pop Begins: The I-POPSTAR Grand Finale Arrives, Streaming on Amazon MX Player!

MUMBAI, India– 19 November, 2025: Amazon MX Player’s I-POPSTAR has quickly grown into one of India’s most refreshing and culturally defining music shows of the year, a stage built entirely on original tracks, original voices, and original stories. Over the past weeks, the show has fuelled a genuine indie-music movement, powered by four distinct mentors, King, Aastha Gill, Aditya Rikhari, and Parmish Verma, each pushing the next generation of homegrown pop into the spotlight.

From day one, the show made its stance clear — no covers, no remixes, only fresh compositions. That choice transformed I-POPSTAR into a rare space where creativity wasn’t just encouraged, it was the rule. Regional flavours, genre-bending sounds, and deeply personal writing all merged into a single national moment. From Rishabh Panchal’s four-buzzer audition,  Radhika Bhide’s Marathi originals that moved mentors to tears, to Anurag Srivastava’s sharp, socially charged anthems, and Rohit Raut landing a real film collaboration with Parmish Verma — these weren’t just performances, but were markers of where India’s new pop movement is headed.

The show’s impact didn’t stay confined to the stage; it also created viral moments beyond it. Maan Panu’s original single “I’m Done” turned into a nationwide breakout, exploding on Instagram and receiving an unexpected endorsement from Salman Khan, who publicly praised the song and said he wished the track were one of his own. It was a turning point that proved I-POPSTAR is not only discovering talent,  it’s launching artists into the mainstream.

With original tracks now streaming on Spotify and a special label partnership with Universal Music India, I-POPSTAR has become one of the first Indian reality formats where contestants’ OG compositions travel instantly from stage to global streaming platforms.

Now, after weeks of challenges, defining breakthroughs, and emotional storytelling, the competition is down to its final pulse. With the results revealed,  Rohit, Rishabh, Maan,and Radhika move intothe Grand Finalealongside Charan, while Elvis, Riya, and Anurag exit the competition. Each finalist represents a different shade of India’s evolving pop landscape, setting up a finale that is less like a showdown and more like a milestone for independent music.

The Grand Finale drops on 21st November, and it’s poised to mark a defining moment for Indian Pop. Catch it exclusively on Amazon MX Player, streaming free on mobile, Connected TVs, the Amazon shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, and Airtel Xtreme
