Well Well Well, I had all this time thought that the one thing I would refrain from writing about would be about all this K-serials! But, the almighty had something else in store from me (ya i m getting inspired by them!!) and I now am writing my take on them!!
So well to be honest my mom is fanatic about such serials!! She watches them day in and day out, her expedition of all these serials starts right in the afternoon and finishes way past midnight!! And I end up getting more than a glimpse of such serials. I am simply amazed by the way this producers have been fooling the indian audience, time and again. The same "brought back from dead", "sudden bout of amnesia", "marriages and divorces by the weekend", "values and tradition", "mein sachchai ka saath dungi" are all repeated, tried and tested formulaes which actually has the indian audience hooked on to their TVs.
And what do they do when they have exhausted their bank of ideas..or tried the tried and tested formula way too many times..they "creatively" give a twist to such ideas. Like the other day there is one serial in the afternoon slot "karam apna apna" where the main protagonist dies. Now as they have officially shown the dead body and not thrown the body into a river or something they cant bring him back from the dead. So they pay a fat cheque to his "aatma" and get the aatma to work..who under the power of lord shiva is able to communicate with his younger brother and get revenge!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA! !! Or when they have lost out on ideas what do they do? They simply repack an old serial..and present it in a fresh format!
But still my mom watches the serial as honestly as earlier Now before you guys get thinking as to how do I know so much about all these serials, let me make it clear that I have got all the info from my mom n her very deary bunch of lady friends who quite fanatically follow this serials!!
Well I would like to tell the producers please spare us from all this trouble and stop churning out such stupid serials and also save a million young actresses from doin child labour! But I am sure if I go public with my views, a million housewives would hatch a plot to kill me! Coz this is what works for them, this is what has made the television industry a stupendous success!!
So go enjoy your daily dose of drama , action, suspense and romance!!
Adios,
RAJ
