Director Neeraj Sharma earlier told Indian Express earlier that the team is looking forward to making history with Indian Idol Season 12. Talking about his plans for finale, he said, “If there was no pandemic, we would have hosted the finale in a big stadium, and we are confident it would have been a sold-out show. This season has been loved so much and given it’s the last episode, we wanted to do something really special, and thus the 12-hour episode came in place.”
