Twelve-Year-Old Abhisheka Wins Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Lil Champs Season 5, Receives Rs. 1 Crore Dream Home from DRA in Landmark Initiative
Twelve-year-old Abhisheka from Tamil Nadu, a government school student and daughter of a daily-wage labourer, wins Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Lil Champs Season 5. DRA awards her a Rs. 1 crore dream home in a first-of-its-kind initiative, turning her musical victory into a life-changing milestone celebrated on Zee Tamil and ZEE5.
The grand finale of the widely watched musical reality competition transformed her victory into a life-changing milestone when DRA announced the unprecedented reward, positioning it as the first-of-its-kind initiative by a real estate developer to gift a home through a television music competition. The initiative was designed to honour not only musical excellence but also the personal journey behind the achievement.
Abhisheka, who competed against six highly talented finalists, consistently impressed audiences and judges throughout the season with her vocal skill, stage presence, and emotional depth in performance. Her journey from a humble household to the winner’s podium has resonated widely across Tamil Nadu, symbolising how talent, when supported by opportunity, can overcome socioeconomic barriers.
The show, aired on Zee Tamil and streamed on ZEE5, showcased some of the most promising young musical talents across the state, with Abhisheka ultimately emerging as the title winner of Season 5.
DRA’s announcement of a Rs. 1 crore worth dream home during the finale elevated the moment into an extraordinary milestone. The company stated that the initiative reflects its commitment to recognising determination and providing meaningful support beyond conventional sponsorships.
Speaking on the occasion, Manoj Vasudevan, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of DRA Homes, said that Abhisheka’s victory represents the power of hard work and resilience. He stated that the company, as a builder of homes, sought to honour her achievement in a meaningful way by gifting her family a home symbolising security, opportunity, and a brighter future. He added that the gesture goes beyond sponsorship and aims to inspire young individuals to believe that no dream is too large and no beginning too small.
Expressing her joy, Abhisheka said that winning Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Lil Champs Season 5 was beyond her imagination when she first stepped onto the stage. She added that receiving a home made the moment even more special for her and her family, calling it a blessing and a dream come true. She also expressed gratitude to everyone who supported and believed in her throughout her journey.
