Please Stop Singing; Noen ain’t no good

“Yudhdha Taryanche, Swapna Suranche”

That’s the program that is currently going on like a TV series. All the supposed self proclaimed who’s who of Marathi television are invited to participate in a singing competition and display “the other set” of talents!

I happened to watch one of the episodes the other day. It was a tired evening after office and I switched it on with some expectation of listening to pacifying melodies. What I actually got….well, why don’t you experience for yourself? After all its “the other set”!

I am not trying to make a point here about their singing abilities however. It sucks big time. And then there is further complication. After every round I think last 3 are eliminated and remaining reach the next round. So basically considering their singing, those who have really decided to watch should thank their stars that the annoyance level surely goes down per level.

There was one shot displaying the emotions of participants while the results were announced. The “stars” that feature in last 3 are apparently so broken that it seems like they were super confident of making to next round and now they can’t become great singers! I am sure its not only these stars however. It all comes across as a coached performance. You know…..when camera comes; show that you are dejected kinds.

But for what? Do producers/directors really think that they are increasing the interest levels by letting stars manifest “real life reactions”? and on top of that do they think audience is fool enough?

Rather than such stupid star fight, may be a chance can be given to some people who can really sing. And if they can’t manage that then put that money in producing something good for Marathi industry.

Being a Maharashtrian it hurts to see nothing good, nothing of quality is coming out!
