Second, upload the one-minute video/audio clip on YouTube and finally, fill the form available on www.d2hstars.com in order to upload their entry. The final winner would be selected by a well-known panel of judges, including Neeraj Arya's Kabir Café, Astitva, Fiddlecraft, FusedheaD and Sanjeeta and the winner will get an opportunity to record his/her original music. This music will be launched globally, along with video promotion on Songdew TV.
