The sole intention of such programs is to make money and not at all serve for the real social awareness what they claim to do. Those people who were paid a sum of Rs.2000/- were evenly distributed among the two teams, and these people drive the discussion, all others are called to just fill up the seats. The whole show was a fabricated one, all made up, the final verdict of the debate was decided even before the discussion had started, and the host Gopinath also takes the discussion in such a way giving more priority to the team which they had decided to win. This was the worst demotivating response I have ever seen, that too towards a visually impaired person who has come with all hopes to speak out. This incident was more nerve wrecking, there was a blind man who had come to take part in this show, he was also trying to seek for a chance to get the mike and express his views, seeing this the production team had approached this blind man and had scolded him and said him not to shout for the mike when the camera is rolling as this would cause unnecessary editing sequences.
There was one other participant like me who had lost his patience and forcedly asked for the mike to the host GOPINATH, his reply was "look here Boss, you don't direct/advice me how to carry out the show, that's what for I m being paid for.please keep quiet and wait till I give the mike to you". In both the teams (for and against teams) they had people who were hired and paid to speak the mike was circulated to only these people. "Įven after spending 3.5 hrs like this, most of the people who were invited to participate in the show were not allowed to express their views. when we had asked to switch on the fans they say that"the fans will cause unnecessary noise in the recording so we will not turn it on. I had great expectations about the arena where the show is being filmed, but to my shock the floor where the show was filmed was like a cave, no A/Cs and not even fans, I was literally sweating for the entire 3 and half hours of the shoot. I was really excited about my participation in this program, as this is a very popular talk show considered to be pretty nice. I had registered for this program through SMS, I got a call from these guys about a week later and they had asked me to come for a shoot last Saturday (14 Jul 07) ,at AVM studio Vadapalani. I would like to share my disgusting experience when I had taken part (so called participation) in Vijay TV NEEYA-NAANA talk show with all of you. His experience at the show is given below: I want to share his experiences with u guys. But, I happened to receive a mail from my friends portraying the real face of this "reality" show. The way he carries the show on his shoulders is absolutely fantastic! His mannerisms, the way he speaks and his style, everything is superb! I love the show very much and make sure I don't miss out any of the episodes.
