It has been less than 48 hours since he bagged the coveted title of Indian Idol 10, but Salman Ali says the dichotomy of his life has never been more prominent. "On one hand, I am seeing my humble home in Mewat, Haryana. And on the other hand is Mumbai, where I have been adjudged the winner. I am wearing designer clothes, living in hotels and meeting the biggest people from Bollywood," says Ali, 20.

Touted as the frontrunner for the title early on, the youngster - who made a living as a wedding singer in his village - has fetched a cash prize of Rs 25 lakh and a luxury car.
