Reality Shows

Reality Shows- the latest elements of Indian small screen have set their foothold in the telivision industry. Most of them are the Indian versions of foreign reality shows and have adapted themselves well for our country . Ranging from searches for a singing star,i.e voice of the country to making money in quiz shows, dancing to even finding brides and grooms in various swayamvars we have it all. The amazing thing is the audience's reponse to the flood of these shows. As many times as somebody is willing to marry we are ready with our SMSs to express our uncounted for opinions. It makes big money for the producers and mobile companies though. .One after the other seasons of the same reality shows with judges who are not so talented in that field judge them and that too with comments that may force the participant to leave his/her talent forever. So the long and short of it is if you are copying some 'sach ka samna' from 'the moment of truth' or 'big boss' from 'big brother' atleast try to reach some standards and P.S Stop  boring the audience with the same stuff again and again.

NEWS X -a place worth to be

Now News X is the name of the channel where I did my one month internship - firstly as a compulsory part of my curriculum but later as an experience to be cherished. After a not so fulfilling experience at The Pioneer I was not particularly excited about the internship but the very first day brought in some change in my thinking. I was part of the National Bureau of the channel. On the first day itself I met a bunch of people who were so worth to be with.Everybody treated me like the sweet little kid who has come to learn. Coming to some of the personality traits (strange word to use na hehe) there was Aafreen Alam- the peppy reporter covering the environment ministry , educated in London , a complete rockstar! Then there was the very pretty Sneha Mordani- a reporter as well as anchor, very serious about her packagea but rest chilled out! Jaskirat Singh Bwaw was the Helper and the Problem solver! Yatish sir, senior political reporter,very generous (the one person you can ask for an extra leave or to go home early). To mention others there were geeta,ishan,bilal(his teeth were exactly like bunny rabbit) and not to forget our chief Seema Mustafa- very graceful and confident like wow!

I great working environment (and lot of work). It was a great great experience where I got a taste of professional life!!

Aspirations

Since I have titled my blog aspirations but there was no mention of anything like aspirations in here so I am writing about it now. Aspiration refers to 'a hope or ambition of achieving something'. This is though the literal meaning. Different people have different aspirations. The passion to run after those aspirations, to chase them also varies. I have seen people driving themselves crazy,racing to achieve something in life. But do they ever wonder at what cost? What is the ultimate end point of this achievement?
My life has never been a chase.(hope it never will be). . People may regaed is as aimless or a laidback attitude but if you want in life at the very end is pretty clear than I don't believe you need to follow the conventional path or participate in the mad run. . . .  .

Life's Good. . . .sometimes. .

Sometimes you feel good,sometimes you don't. Life is full of surprises some which you want and some that you don't. Life has been fair to me uptill now but there are instances that jostle your mind, maybe leave you frustrated. You have to face somebody you don't want to everyday or you don't get to meet somebody you really really want to. Thats the way it goes. . Adjustments and comprises are the two things that go with you whole of your life so you can say that they are some sort of loyal life partners.The unwanted ones perhaps.
