Criticism

Hemant was also criticised for not being a versatile singer. He could sing Sufi songs beautifully, but did not do too well with soft romantic numbers. Often, he was accused of being more loud than necessary. He was said to be not getting into the mood of the song, when rendering romantic songs. But his expertise in Sufi music made his lil champ of sa re ga ma pa.
