The year
2013 is gone by. We have already witnessed the award season of Bollywood and we
have witnessed the rise of singers in the gone by year. Ask any random chick
about her favorite song from 2013 and she will flit between ‘Tum Hi Ho’ or
‘Sanwar Loon’; if you can decipher the hidden meaning then you have witnessed
the rise of reality shows in India.
Arijit
Singh the Filmfare recipient for the best male singer 2013 was once a
reality TV show contestant. Monali
Thakur the cute bubbly girl who is ready to make her debut in Bollywood and
the recipient of best female singer Filmfare 2013 was once a contestant of
Indian Idol. Sreeram Chandra the man
with the soothing voice who sang the song ‘Subhaanallah’ in the movie ‘Ye
jawani Hai Diwani’ happens to be the winner of Indian Idol 5.
In recent
past we have heard people bantering about ‘how fake these reality shows are’;
we have even seen people cursing the creative team behind such shows, irrespective
of the fame and employment they have awarded the contestants from the show
with.
If you are a
person with optimistic mind setup you are gonna agree with me, when I say that
reality shows have changed the artistic world for betterment. We all have heard
the quote ‘Every Artist Needs an Audience’ and with
the advent of these innocuous reality shows this quote just got real. Every
artist with a profound artiste irrespective of the town he comes from and
undiluted by the creed he belongs to has received tantamount love and respect
for his art.
If you are a
person with an abominable mind setup then you will count onto the failures and
trauma these reality shows have spread. There have been bad luck and people
have faced criticism and depression but the primal reason behind those futile
outcomes was the lack of creativity and the sheer absence of art of
presentation.
In recent
past India has seen an outburst in the field of reality television. Most of
them are borrowed concepts and some of them are just the translated versions
but till the time people are moving forward it is ok and as the quote goes ‘Rome
was not built in a day’ like
same change is not gonna come instantly, first people will copy, then
experiment and finally one day they will innovate.
Till then
Sit back, Relax and enjoy the Not-so original Reality Television.
