What on earth goes through that head of yours Bapu?  <edited>

You need to remember that he's a bass player eph. 

I could not resist - I did not believe the supposed right answer, so I wrote a quickie computer simulation and tested it over many, many iterations.  Switch was the right call two-thirds of the time.  Once I looked more closely at my code, it became obvious why.
 
The contestant makes a pick.  His chances are one in three of it being the right one.  That means the chances are two-in three of it being the wrong one.  So, the contestant is shown that one of the doors he didn't pick is a loser.  The odds of his original pick remain - one in three.  That means that the other unopened door has a two-in-three chance of being the winner.  The computer simulation confirms that this ratio is close the results it produces.
