I am not doing social policing….and never expect me to do so…..
I am not claiming to be eligible for a seat next to Mahatma Gandhi or Mother Theresa……
But some of these bullshit things that I come across raise my blood pressure and make me talk about some of the basic ethics…….
Being an MBA student, I believe that I know about marketing a little. But the marketing trends followed by some of the television channels are just ridiculous as much as it can….
Take any reality show….. These rascals never forget to include a blind fellow or a handicapped person….. Don’t think that it is with out any intention….. we the common men are intelligent enough to understand that the channel will get excellent viewership by showing some of the celebrities shedding their crocodile tears for these contestants….
Enough is enough…..
What made me write about this is the gr8 idiotic show which I come across in SUN TV and in Surya TV: Deal or No Deal…..
Many of you might have come across such an idiotic program but still I am briefing you on that… The program is not a quiz or any program which involves intelligence…. It is a simple program where mere luck plays the game and there will be a banker making deals reminding us of the merger and acquisition news that comes in business line…………..
But the latest ad which was shown during a movie was as ridiculous as it could be….. few females cribbing about their unluck and ultimately about their financial burdens which happened due to that and enlisting them as their ultimate reason for coming for the show…………
I pity you Mukesh… you somehow managed to have the image of a good actor but I pity you for the single reason that you are anchoring such a ridiculous program in surya TV. May be you can speak of increasing popularity of the show or the rising numbers of viewership….. I simply damn care about that….
Being an actor / actress you guys are supposed to exhibit some sort of social ethics…. Which many of you forget these days……….. At least don’t use the sentiments of the society towards a physically challenged person or a mentally challenged person to promote your show………….
Please………. Please………… Please exhibit something positive…….. Follow some thing good from the foreign culture……….. Take the example of Nike ad using a physically challenged sportsman to show endorse their products……….. pls do some thing positive…. Give some positive energy to the society………
I know that you people will speak of all those activities like visiting the old age homes and singing in front of them and serving meals in their platter………… But do you think that it make any sense???
If your real intention is to do something good don’t take benefits out of it………. Please don’t show the tears of those old people who are abandoned by their children……….
Don’t take it otherwise………. I do respect some service given by you to the society but what is not digesting to me is the exhibitionism of what you do………..
Give something positive in your messages…….. Show how to save fuels……. Show how to reduce energy food prints…………. Show how to reduce use of paper………… show how to reduce environmental pollution………
But your intentions are different……… I know that you may not be interested because these may not attract viewership………… and that is what you are ultimately interested in……….. So admit that fact and shrug………
