FILM STARS ON TV ... TRP's ????????

Television has and does borrow a lot from films.  Whether it is story plots, thoughts, reference points, songs etc.  TV borrows heavily from films and film stars and vice versa. TV is used as a platform by the film fraternity in order to generate work amongst stars for their promotional requirements.  This is healthy and good as both are equally and greatly dependent on each other.

In the past, few film stars have given a huge TRP boost to certain channels however in the current scenario I feel that sometimes too much of importance is being given and expectations are sky high thinking they will work the magic and get the TRP's high, ARE THEY DOING THAT???  And AT WHAT COST????

A lot has been talked about recession and budgets cut in daily soaps, Does it then make any business sense to spent crores and crores on film stars when they don't deliver the same TRP's as TV soaps. It does put me off when I see a few film stars treating television as a secondary medium, and our fraternity treats them like they are the best thing that has happened to television.

With the exorbitant budgets and preferential treatment given by the people concerned, it is definitely not fair on people who actually deliver TRP's be it the TV actors, directors etc who work round the clock to achieve it.  I have seen production houses going bizarre trying to accommodate the film stars time, dates, hours of shoot and the budgets and the channels accommodating that too while the TRP TV stars and team are expected to work for long hours and accommodate recession, IS IT FAIR????

In some TV awards, which is supposedly meant to be, 'BY, FOR AND OF' the TV fraternity.  The focus is suddenly on a film star who walks in for 5 minutes gets his / her photo clicked, gives a half hearted speech, takes an award and goes off with a star struck people following him/her and at that moment you realize that the TV fraternity has a huge inferiority complex.

I have tremendous amount of respect and admiration for films, film stars and the media and I do respect their contribution towards TV but sometimes when our own TV fraternity treats the TV people as second class citizens it hurts.

    Dear Mr.Shahi,
    WB!!!Hope you are reading our views and taking them into acount.

    Even if you plan to show a rift,don't make Ragini negative because if it happens she wouldn't be the same Ragini anymore.And by showing Ragini in a bad light,are you trying to prove that dark-skinned girls are shallow that even when they get a loving family and husband that isn't enough for them.Ambika,Kaushi are selfish,ungrateful human beings and are you planning the same path for Ragini too??And after all this misunderstandings clear up which could have caused by many things don't make Ragini apologetic as always.For once show her worth.It happened before and will happen now too that Ragini will be guilty without proof cos thats the extent you have destroyed her character.Give her something worthwhile to do instead of cooking as before and fainting as of now.We wanted a strong Ragini,but whats with this fainting??That seems to be her new role.Please make her strong and show her worth and utilise her talent as she is the best amongst the current generation.

    Rajan Sir

    Thank you so much sir, we all RagVirian's were really sad with the way this track was going, we were dying to see RagVir together...and i am along with most of the RagVirian are really happy that you are showing such amazing RagVir scenes these days, be it the 2 lil happy happy flashbacks you showed us or the emotional scenes where RagVir were missing each other. We are really happy now for everything that has been shown for RagVir.

    Kinshuk-Parul have done a great job in these scenes, all the recent scenes were so far their best scenes and their chemistry is getting better day by day...and I really thank you for discovering this immensely talented jodi with amazing chemistry, and now i am getting positive vibes about RagVir and their track in bidaai.

    Once again sir would like to thank you a LOT for all these wonderful RagVir scenes that we got since past few days

    Thanx
    Dhara.

    i Agre with you Mr Rajan i fel TV Starts work so hard and TV n Movies are two different worlds..neway i agreee with you..

    And Now first of all thank u so much Sir for showing s a beautiful gajar ka halwa flash back scene betwen Ragini n Ranvir.We loved tht scene yes Ranvir is injail but if we will get sch flash back scnes while Ranvir is in jail we will definetelyenjoy the show.i Mean in this way Ranvir canstay in Jail for sometime n we all Ragini-Ranvir fans can enjoy thier chemistry too.One more request Sir Do show Ragini imagining RANVIR too and Parul n KINSHUK both are doin a wonderfu job SPECIALLY PARUL CHAUHAN her acting is no natural and she is truelly doing a Fab Job.Hatts of to Parul n KINSHUK.
    Hope t o se our Ranvir out of AIL SOON
