Had it been the Ekta Kapoor timeslot a year ago, i couldn't breath in the slot of 7 to 11 PM when the remote was remote from me. But when the K" factor started loosing its glory, i thought at least now i can see freely my fav news channels, sports channels and then at the end of the day "Sach ka Samna"..... But the luxary remained a dream now...
I am really now fed up with the serials getting on air and particularly those say before and after episode that our motto is just to show what not to do with WOMAN. Its merely a showoff that they use word "Woman related reality" and then show all unreal nonsense things on national channels which are not only pathatic to watch, but presents a totally fake picture of our village life.
Say a very famous serial shows rajasthani background and then the Silent husband, his totally innocent, village wife. The poor woman who can not give a baby boy to the family and who is forced by her mother in law to let her husband marry another girl. She keeps looking for help but this lady Gabbar is such an influancial woman that she can't help it out. Now tell me, where the hell in Rajasthan, this happens. I will surely like to go and stay in this village to fight to that lady gabbar in style of Quick Gun Murugan....
Not too far, here is one more serial with rajasthani background, that uses child artists and keeps saying the thought provoking lines after the episode but during the episode, they show how it should not be followed. Marriage and remarriage, untimely pregnancy of heroine etc became hallmark of these type of serials.
Not too far, on the name of the holy relations, someone is showing how to cheat while selecting a girl and how you can arrange a girl with dowry. Its too much to describe our society. How many of indian citizens see their own life in these characterless characters?
And not so far, here is one "Sach" fetched from you to give you money. Asking all questions related to sex and relations other then marriage is the common phenomenon here. I have never heard them asking "Have you ever cheated your teacher while giving exam in fifth standard?" or "have you ever thought that this show is worst to be on?" but they can not ask such questions coz their TRP comes in question. Switching to some news channels, you will find "Yaha Rehte The Ram" or "Yaha Hua Tha Bharat Milap".... I suggest they also can change their name now to Aastha or Sanskar coz they are giving news of nearly 5000 years old happenings.
Now what i like, i like NATGEO's latest Ancient Megastructures, I like the original Mega Structures, I like wild discovery, I like Zee TV's Little champs minus the over acting by judges, I like the laughter produced by Shekhar suman trying to occupy various personalities in his mind on Sab TV and the most i like "Tarak Mehta Ka Ulta Chashma". See a gujju writer here shows you how you can be on the Top of TRP Tree without showing any problematic content. It has values, it has message, it has fun, it has jokes and above all, it has a nearly true picture of our common Man... though we are not all the time free just like them to enjoy all days. But its fun to watch.
so what is your view about the stupid box shows??
