"K" SERIALS-A BIG PAIN

The TV (K) serials on Star Plus are more X rated than the adult content on English channels such as AXN. The Information and Broadcasting minister and his cronies in the ministry who are supposedly keeping a check on the TV content should be watching the K serials and banning them rather than banning channels like AXN for airing adult content.

Its no rocket science or we do not need geniuses to tell us which channel is watched more Star Plus or AXN. AXN which gets a viewer ship of barely around 1 or 2 or even less is banned for two months for airing adult content and Ms Kapoor goes on and on with her derogatory dialogues, extra marital affairs and so on and so forth

Considering I write on the business of advertising I do watch TV regularly to find out whats happening in which channel. So I surf channels like one would surf the net. Over a period of time I realized one need not be glued to the TV screen to find out what happens in most of the entertainment channels especially the ones like Star Plus, Zee and Sony.

Yesterday as I was surfing I came across this serial Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki. and was appalled. The dialogues cannot be any more derogatory that it already is. They are worse of than adult content. You actually have a daughter-in-law who is dressed like a Christmas tree and throwing a party in the house while one of her daughters or niece is in the hospital undergoing a kidney operation.

Then in Kyunki Saas Bhi the grand daughter is shown being so disrespectful to her grand mother. And the grandmother Tulsi who is considered to be this very strict mother, aunt, grand mother etc etc stands watching her granddaughter speak to her disrespectfully instead of giving her one tight slap. If this is the kind of content that is being aired on Star Plus then god only save the children and their parents.

The women in the K Serials are two extremes. One who is Extremely good and nave who every man would want to marry or have beside him and the other is the extreme bad one and vampish who every one would want to kill in the first instance.

For years the K serials have been continuing like this and today very conveniently it is concluded that this is what the audience want. Cheating the audience has become a norm in todays media world be it in television or in newspapers.

I think watching semi-nude men and women on channels like AXN and FTV is better off than watching the K serials. I guess most would agree with me. Channels such as Star Plus, Zee and Sony I guess have only pushed us generations backwards rather than bring in progression.

Another interesting point to note in the K Serials for all those watching them regularly is that when the story does not progress further then Ekta Kapoor's character will throw a lavish party with songs and dance. So one entire episode can carry along with out a story and the writer has enough time to think and create a plot that will work in the next episode.

So guys .what would you like the derogatory serials or would you like to watch AXN and FTV?.
