5 Indian game shows that need to come back!

Since the past few years reality shows have started turning into celebrity reality shows. Only a few shows feature common people nowadays. There was a time when we could participate in game shows and it was fun! The shows were very interactive and the audience could connect with it. On the other hand reality shows have become monotonous and the audience interaction factor has disappeared. Here are 5 game shows that need to come back on TV.

1. Khullja Sim Sim

Khullja Sim Sim was one of the best Indian game shows ever. Even though we weren't the contestants we always tried guessing what's behind the doors! This show was very lively and the audience could connect to it. I remember my grandparents telling me that there are no prizes behind the doors and that they would place them if required. I never believed them and still kept guessing and if I was wrong then, "Tai Tai Fish!"

 

2. 10 Ka Dum

This show was a treat for Salman Khan's fans. Based on the simple concept of probability, this show was a major success. Salman Khan hosted this show and brought his unique style and charisma to it. This shows had some really interesting topics of discussion and hence I always wanted to participate in it!

 

3. National Bingo Night

This show was an innovative concept at it not only interacted with the studio audience but also the live audience sitting at home. This show had some really interesting prizes but like most other shows this too was said to be pre-planned and hence lost its viewership.

 

4. Deal Ya No Deal

In case you don't know what this show was about, head to your nearest gaming arcade and I am sure you will definitely find a video game version of this. These machines have existed from before the show and were quite popular which led to popularity of the show.

 

5. Gol Gol Gullam

This show is not well known but it's definitely one to watch-for kids! Hungama TV aired this show when it had just started and this is one of the most fun shows to watch. A giant wheel, extremely funny tasks, a pool full of slime and an interesting Lifebuoy themed shower;  what else do you need to have fun! I wanted to participate in this show but sadly it went off air.

We hope that in the next few years, producers come up with shows that will focus more on audience interaction rather than celebrity drama. Do you miss any old reality/gameshow? Comment below!
