This episode we are down to our top 8 contestants. First we are treated to a special performance by classical Afghan singer Rahim Ghafari. The line-up of performances tonight starts with Rabiullah Behzad, then Anahita Olfat, whose performance does not impress the judges too much. She admits to the judges that she did not practice this song a great deal.

We hear from Nazir Haydari, and earns an 8 from the judges.

Dawood Pazhman, a favorite among the crowds as well as his fellow contestants, this time does not impress the judges at all. He earns some of his lowest scores this entire season.
This episode the stars also visit Afghan children in school, which turns into a meaningful experience both for our stars, judges as well as the kids. The highlight is a powerful acoustic performance on stage by Madina, an Afghan girl orphan who has a knack for singing. Ustad Shahla makes a powerful appeal to our audience to care for Afghanistan's children.
Highlights from the rest of the performances include Arash Barez, whose full vocal talents are on display this episode. Stay tuned next week to see who gets eliminated.
