Ok, here I go again.  This is reality TV at its best .. take a bad boy and a put together a load of beautiful girls .. there is bound to be tension.. the formula for the program is right.   But the real question is will I watch it?     

 

I was one of the many that supported Rakhi Ka Swayamvar.  What I mean by supporting it – was I watched the show night after night.   I liked the show since it was modeled after THE BACHELOR(ETTE).     I was gullible and thought that there was maybe a chance that Rakhee was actually serious about getting married. 

 

So much so that when Rakhee was on the same Quatar flight as me in August 2009 ..  I was awed.   At first I did not recognize her as we were standing in the passport control queue in Quatar – but when she opened her mouth I knew that it was her.  She was wearing a brown tracksuit .. if I remember correctly .. since that was a while ago.  The thing that was very star like about her was the big glasses that framed her small face.   Rakhee was going to the New York to perform in the August 15th parade.    This was the time right after Rakhee Ka Swayamwar had ended .. and the chosen groom was Eileesh.   I actually congratulated her.  Telling her the she must be so happy.    What a fool I was .. and others like me that thought that she was actually serious about finding a groom… and getting married.  

 

I should have known better since my cousin who works closely on the show had already forewarned me that Rakhee would not be getting married .. but I did not want to believe that all this hoopla was all for nothing ….   The program delivered a huge gain for NDTV fortunes and viewership both of which were terribly sagging.

 

I don’t know if it was a cheap publicity stunt, but I do feel cheated.   What is being sold in the name of reality TV .. is really a joke.   So I have decided that I will not watch Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayega –  I don’t believe that it is real… too much emotional atyachar …
