The Idiot Box

It’s just march and the scorching sun humiliates after the exhausting lectures, and the peace you feel after reaching home as if won a war…
Switched on the PC but what the hell couldn’t connect the net, no server…
So what next, not going to study for sure. Hmmmm let’s watch TV…
While surfing through the channels came across the making of a reality show, the koffee show arre with kkkaran obviously… Celebrities were asked so what are you wearing (can’t you see dumm) and there reply was, “I’m wearing Manish Malhotra.” , the other one said Rocky S no Shaina … and this is my Loius Vouitten Bag(with the same price of this I would have buyed more than 20 bags for sure) and how can you wear Manish Malhotra, silly ques, I know…
Each and every thing on the show is planned, What the one is suppose to wear and what accessories, how they are suppose to look, what will be their postures while sitting depending on which profile looks better, right or left (I went infront of the mirror to check my profiles, but in vain couldn’t find my which face side looked better)
An interesting thing I came to know that flying kisses they blow instead of pecking on cheeks while greeting each other is just for the sake that their makeup doesn’t come off. After every 5 min there is a touch upppp session.
Why the hell do you call this a reality show when everything is scripted…

Idiot box is truly getting idiotic these days, and this reminds me of the crap, news channels show most of the times. What’s wrong with them, even they have started worrying for their TRP’s I guess … It seems they have lost their senses…

Most of the times it covers the laughter challenge repeat telecast or it would be some silly bollywood news like Abhiash’s wedding, their honeymoon, ash’s first karvachauth n then ash cooking idli’s for abhi to help him loose weight and from this she alone gets the credit of being a aagyakaari and susheel bahu.
Give me a break, with due respect every Indian woman do that for their family and husband, they may be working or not, give that respect to your mother, your wife instead of making ash an ideal…
It should have been breaking news when ash would have cooked for salmaan…..
A new link up or a break up, shaahid is seeing sania, then vidyaa and now finally priyankaa, is news channel the platform for this, their specific channels doing this , at least show what news channels are meant for…..

Idiot box is being used to make idiots out of us.Financial stakes are very high,be it GEC or a news channel.Yes,we may like to beleive that some news channel are being "supported".It is not very difficult to listen some of the news waallahs and feel the "bent".The only thing that matters is the TRPs,and why not...as I said,the stakes per show,per episode are very high.Finally,news channels should say.WE ALSO READ NEWS.
