DD or Satellite Channels

(The below article is inspired by Anand Ramchandrans blog in Son of Bosey. If you want to read good satirical blogs do visit his blog)

Fed up with the choice of programs offered these days on television a group called Cut Off Crappy K Serials decided to send a request to Information & Broadcasting minister Ambika Soni, to present a bill in parliament banning all the satellite channels and make sure that only Door Darshan in various languages is broadcast all across India as it used to be in good old days.

Upon hearing this the Director of DD Hyderabad became very happy and immediately ordered his staff to clean the room in studio where all the one room plays & serials were shot in old days to shoot more plays and also asked his staff to find the videos of programs like Kantipatham and Pandula pempakam to entertain people. When pointed out by one of his staff that since times changed people may not like these programs, he said that if film industry is confident that people are going to watch a film directed by Dasari Narayana Rao starring Balakrishna then there is nothing wrong in thinking that people will watch programs in DD. He then pointed out the fact that more people watched Bhatti Vikramarka directed by Manishankar than the combined audience of all the films directed by him suggesting that a rerun of Bhatti Vikramarka or Vichitra Kasi Majili Kathalu is better than watching 16th December or Rudraksh on TV.

Upon hearing this the head of Department Involved in Counting K Serials, Mr. Jigatesh said that he and the staff of his department along with their supporters will oppose this request. In support of his argument he pointed out that not only crappy serials and reality shows are providing employment to out of work film people there by reducing the unemployment levels in India but they are also providing hope of a successful career to people who previously would have been considered hopeless. As example he pointed out Rakhi Sawant and Rahul Mahajan. He also pointed that because of reality shows Anumalik is not doing Music Direction or singing these days reducing the noise pollution which is contributing to a healthier nation.

Meanwhile EktaKapoor has decided to launch a reality show. Tentatively named as Kaun Dekhega RGV ki AAG the show is said to be hosted by Tushar Kapoor whose name will appear as Kapoor Tushar and involves competition among contestants in watching RGV ki AAG continuously and the winner will be the one who doesn’t giggle or scowl or puke even once during the movie. The winner is going to receive DVD’s of RGV ki AAG, Gayab, Krishna Cottage and the all the episodes of Kahani Mahabharat ki. Upon hearing this Mr.Jigatesh got very much excited and started searching for his cell phone to send a sms to participate in the show.

Unconfirmed reports came in that Upon hearing about petition for making DD as the only channel on air, Arun Govil started carrying people in Fireman's lift hoping for new episodes of Vikram betal and Shikha Swaroop started applying makeup hoping for continuation of Chandrakanta on DD.
