Shilpa Shetty mentioned, “While we have played a catalyst in choosing the greatest talent from the country in India’s Got Talent S9, the real deciding factor and the true judgment came from audiences which have been proven with Divyansh and Manuraj’s win. While every talent is different from the other and cannot be compared, I feel personally that their talent is of international standard and sets another kind of benchmark. They created history.”
