ROADIES…BEEEEEEEEEP DOWN UNDER

March 24, 2009

This year is the first time that I have been following the show. The last year I watched only a few episodes. This time I even followed the auditions…

Ok I admit, I find it interesting, to see how the taklus Raghu and Rajiv "bajao" the contestants. Call it obscene, full of abusive words, foul language, dirty bitching & girls who are nothing but bimbettes, but there is something about it that keeps you glued to the television set… may be as humans we enjoy people being humiliated, take sadist pleasure from their pain, to watch friends fight among themselves and rivals teamed up for a task. But what I wonder is, has it never occurred to any of the contestants that they could actually sue the producers for certain tasks which were downright inhuman, for instance the one where the guys were being hit in the balls if the girls gave wrong answers in the quiz, girls are made to cat fight and strip (the last season)...is the Ram Sene listening!!?

Talking about this season, the person I watch out for during the tasks is Poulomi…she puts me rolling on floor laughing. What a dumb ass…err…BEEEEEEP.

She was the same girl, who in her auditions said she had three steady boyfriends, she loved all the three of them, and they all know about each other…she tried to commit suicide by jumping into the Hubli river, since some friend had done black magic on her. I mean how much more stupid can it get. I really wonder what were these guys thinking when they selected her for the show. I don’t even find her sexy or adding any spice to the show…she is just outrageously silly.

I thank God that that gujju guy Dev volunteered out before he could get on my nerves. I think he was marginally better than Poulomi…

Sufi is the guy I would like to win. He is sensible, courageous and confident. Pity, he was voted out on the first day.

Norman is the perfect example of empty vessels that sound too much. I would have liked him if he weren’t so overconfident.

Palak, She is a good performer among the girls, but she is least known for that, she is more so for her irritating nasal voice, always abusing. When she speaks, its more of beeps and less words. The fact that she was voted out soon, made me believe that roadie was a genuine show but getting her back made the show unbearable, this makes roadie also look like one of the TRP hungry reality shows.

Samrat is gone, but I believe, he was a good performer and quite sorted.

Natasha, I cant care less for her. But she is certainly better than the other girls on the show.

One thing's for sure though, that you have kiss good bye to your dignity , if you want to be part of this show....for its not easy to abuse so liberally on camera (especially when you know that millions are watching you, including your own family), to make a fool of yourselves (That's what I feel Devarshi & Poulomi are doing), and to face the taunts and insults thrown at you from other contestants.

And something that I would like to tell the makers of Roadies, The beeps don’t help, we can still make out exactly what abuse is being thrown in.
