Stars have made me wonder since childhood and so is the situation even now except the change, that earlier it was when gazing at the night sky and now at the idiot box. Given above are the samples which could switch on your brains to guessing mode. Well the last three stars are “etc”. Others are left to you for figuring.
Yes. This is the current scenario about the various reality shows currently on air in our TV sets; Sub-titles, with most of the words concealed by STARS and the Results given by judges, with BEEPS dubbing in the actual words. The interesting and unfortunate part is that such shows have a high TRP!
Take the instance of a TV show where Youngistan (oh! Not a country, but Young + Hindustan) flocks to DATE and Romance using all the abusive language to seduce. The shocking ones are those used by the Judges (or the so called moderators) which are new to our lexicon. These shows have been designed in such a way to be the breeding grounds to create betrayal, hatred and loss of our culture.
Leave alone the youths; even children are not spared by these shows! Agreeing on the point that the shows create many opportunities, I regret that the young minds are misguided by these shows. A child speaks of looking sexier! I neither understand where they pick up such words nor do I know if they understand what they mean. The child is often over-loaded by their parents in the name of such competitions hindering their normal growth.
NEWS and quizzes have become sparse. Reality shows are occupying those slots. Moral and Ethics are at Cross-fire. There is an urgent need to get things straight before this turns into the loop for our own destruction. The silver-lining is that there are still a few programmes like “Mission Navy” which inspire youth.
This is the awakening alarm for each one of us before those stars and beeps are removed to display the uncensored. Things should change. But this requires joint effort of the entire society. Would it turn into a REALITY!
