Asian Network Unsung at Mela 2003

Sabrina won the grand final of BBC Asian Network Unsung contest at Mela 2003. Adil Ray hosted a live showcase, with all four finalists performing live on stage and judged by our illustrious panel, which included Hunterz. Sabrina wins the overall prize which includes the chance to professionally record their very first track.

"I'm absolutely delighted", she said. "It was such a buzz to be on stage in front of all those people". Watch the interview with Adil Ray.

In the weeks leading up to the Mela, the BBC Asian Network had been asking its listeners to reveal their hidden singing talents in BBC Asian Network Unsung. After sifting through bags of entries, four finalists were chosen to perform live on stage at Wembley for Mela 2003. Each finalist was showcased on the Adil Ray show in the week running up to the Mela, where their singing talents were exposed to the world and awarded listener's votes via the website and SMS messaging.

Genna was announced as the winner of the listener's award.

Take a look at photos from the event and listen again to the initial entries sent in by the finalists.
