She said: "Bidipta, aap itni sundar ho, itni cute ho.(Bidipta, you are so beautiful and cute) I am aware that many directors have come on 'Indian Idol' and have told you that you should become a heroine. I too feel the same but, there is a surprise I've got for you."

Neelam then opened a box, and handed it to Bidipta, saying: "You're aware that I used to act and then joined my family business. And now, I have my own jewellery brand named 'Neelam Jewels' where I look into the design, and undertake retails and that is when I thought of gifting something to you. Not only that, why don't you model for my brand? You have to be the face of it."

Bidipta's performance on the track 'Gajar Ne Kiya Hai Ishara' from the 1989 film 'Tridev' stunned the judges and the guests including Bollywood actresses Neelam Kothari and Ayesha Jhulka.
