After interview of TRP Aunty, thanks to popular demand of Kolkata Khobor readers, we bring you super EXCLUSIVE interview of TRP UNCLE!
Yes! The man rarely mentioned but equally silent partner in crime - the elusive TRP Uncle speaks out for the first time! And chose Ek Hasina Thi to speak on. A testimony of how new revamp is working wonders.
Q - You rarely speak to media sir! But you made an exception for us. Thank you for speaking on Ek Hasina Thi to Kolkata Khobor!
TRP UNCLE - Aain? Hain? Kya bola? (Looks irritated) Haan jo bhi hai. Humko kaun bolne deta hai? Tum peeche padey the toh bol diya. Chal pooch jo poochna hai! Haan kya hai? (Shakes head)
Q - Do you watch TV sir? Ever watched Ek Hasina Thi?
TRP UNCLE - Arre! Jo ghar ki auratein, tumhari aunty log lagaa deti hain woh dekh leta hun. I am not fond of watching TV since 2000 but watch it now, mostly news, movies and some serial when I get bored of the first two. Ek Hasina Thi kabhi kabhi dekha tha uss ladke Shaurya ke liye. Humari jawaani ke din yaad dila diye! Aur uski chikni maa! Kya jachti hai woh...kya naam hai uska?
Q - Sakshi Goenka!
TRP UNCLE - Haan wohi! Main toh tumhari aunty ko kehta hun yeh dekh kitni maintained aurat hai! Aaj bhi item hai! Haan bas kamini hai. Par chalo kaunsa humare galey padi hai? Hum toh nazar thandi kar lete hain uska deedar kar ke! (Smirks)
Q - So did you watch regularly? What about other characters of the show?
TRP UNCLE - Jab remote mere haath aata tha toh dekh leta tha.(Sighs) Baaki characters? Woh saheli, Raima badi cheez hai. Kahan se laate hain aisi heroine? Durga dekhne mein theek hai lekin bahut sar chadhi, bigdi ladki hai! Badla lungi, yeh karungi woh karungi. Pata nahi khud ko kya samjhti hai!
Dayal ek majboor baap hai. Doctor hoga lekin beti ko bahut sar pe chadha rakha hai.
I hate Rajnath! Pretty girls or paisa he is rich in both! Kismat badi tez hai saale ki! (Gets excited)
Q - What do you think the show is all about?
TRP UNCLE - Kameene ameer log, aur sundar girls ki catfight, jawaan ladko ki jawaani ki masti. Ab toh phamily drama bhi aa gaya hai. Ab tumhari aunty aur main yeh show mil kar dekhte hain. Acha mirch masala hai. (Winks)
Q - But what about rape, justice, revenge...
TRP UNCLE - Dhutt! Rape shape ka toh aise hi batangad bana rakha hai aajkal! Ladkiyan pehle khud dhyaan nahi rakhti, panga leti hain, phir kuch ho jaye toh kehti hain rape ho gaya!
Q - But uncle ji, rape actually happened in this show and..
TRP UNCLE (cuts in) - Arre humein kaunsa dhang se dikhaya tha woh scene! I mean...erm..hua hoga! But galti uski thi woh akeli Shaurya ke ghar ghoom rahi thi aur galti uski behen ki thi jisne Shaurya ko maara. Jawaan ladka, woh bhi jo nashe mein ho, woh apne doston ke saamne aisi insult kaise tolerate karta?
Jawaani mein khoon garam hota hai! Koi bardaasht nahi karta. Ladke toh waise bhi shikari hote hain. Ladki ko bach ke rehna chahiye. Apni hadh mein rehna chahiye agar apni bhalaai chahti hai toh!
CONTINUED :
Q - What do you think of the heroine Durga then?
TRP UNCLE - Bahut ziddi ladki hai! I do not feel bad for her! All her troubles are self created! Saari musibat jadh uski akad hai! Pata nahi khud ko kya samajhti hai?! (Fumes đĄ)
Apne parivaar ko le doobi aur behen ko barbaad kar diya!
Q - What? Sir you mean she is to blame for troubles of Mitras?
TRP UNCLE - Of course! Woh Goenkas ke ghar itna kyun jaati thi? Unke ek ladke ke bedroom mein bhi pahunch gayi! Aur ek se lift leti phirti hai? Phir drama karti hai aur ladke ko thappad lagati hai! Aisi chalu ladkiyon ki koi izzat nahi hoti! Khub jaante hain hum inko!
Badi duniya dekhi hai humne! Khud ghoome phirey, club jaye naukri ke naam pe, kuch bhi kare koi baat nahi! Ladka kuch keh bhi de toh usko thappad? Kya baat hui?
Uske maa baap ne usey bigaad rakha tha. Toh unhe iska phal bhugatna pada! Simple!
Q - But sir Durga suffered a lot too...
TRP UNCLE (Cuts in) - Haan haan! Cry foul if it is a woman! They play victim card all the time! (Shakes head)
Iske maa baap marey. Behen vegetable ho gayi. Isko kya hua? Balke isko toh brand new chehra mila aur muft mein ameer aadmi ne adopt kar liya! Raaj kar rahi thi! Yeh Dayal bhi usey sar pe chadhata tha aur zidd poori karta tha. Uski kahan sunti thi yeh?
Q - Still Dayal finally had his say. You endorse his heart attack drama?
TRP UNCLE - God knows if he did it on his own or that was also this spoilt girl's plan! Haan hum mardon ko kabhi kabhi naatak karna padta hai. Ismein galat kya hai? Acha hua ladki ki shaadi kardi. Ab woh limit mein rahegi!
Waise bhi shaadi wale episode ache hote hain. Easy on eyes and brain. Beautiful women draped in finery, aankhon ko thandak milti hai.đ
Q - Could you elaborate on "limit mein rahegi" part?
TRP UNCLE - Uska mard toh kisi kaam ka nahi. Shaurya hota toh baat aur thi. Lekin yeh Dev bada bhola hai. Too mild. He needs to grow up and learn to tame women. But thankfully Durga has two saas. Suchitra usey sanskaron ke bandhan mein bandh legi. Sakshi usey teer ki tarah seedha rakhegi!
Yeh Durga apne aap line par aa jayegi. Har ladki ka yehi bhagya hota hai. Shaadi ache achon ko sudhaar deti hai.
Q - You talk only of Durga's improvement! You think Goenkas are not at fault? They need not change?
TRP UNCLE - What is Goenkas' fault? Bade log aise hi hote hain. This is hard truth of life. Aise na hote toh itne bade makaam par na hote. Why should they change? Waise bhi they bring spice to this dull show.
Q - Who are your favorite characters in this show sir?
TRP UNCLE - Koi favourite nahi abhi tak. Sakshi dekhne mein achi hai. Rajnath asli cheez hai! Kitni safaai se do hot auratein pattaa rakhi hain! Rich, powerful and loaded with sharaab aur shabaab! Kya life hai saale ki! I envy...(trails off)đ
Shaurya aur uske doston ne jawaani yaad dila di. Carefree young guns!
Q - But sir, don't you think Rajnath is dominated by Sakshi? And Shaurya is a criminal?
TRP UNCLE - Arre beta! You know nothing!
Rajnath smart aadmi hai. Mard aurat ko bolne dete hain taaki unki galatfehmi bani rahe ki unki chalti hai. Magar asal mein woh apni chalaate hain. I love how he fools gharwali and baharwali like a boss! Sakshi sundar hai but overconfident hai. Pitegi bechaari! Rajnath ek din usey bhi seedha kar dega agar uska mann kiya toh jaise usne apne bete ko blackmail kiya tha aur usko set kar diya tha.
Shaurya natkhat hai. Jawaani ka garam khoon hai. Jawaani mein ladke bahut kuch karte hain! Toh kya criminal ho gaye bechaare? Kuch bhi bolte ho!
Yahan humse ek nahi sambhalti aur inhone itni sambhal rakhi hain! Kya baat hai!
Q - Isn't this mentality driving society backwards sir, and encouraging crime?
TRP UNCLE - What rubbish! đĄ Society is fine as it is. Auraton ne bekaar mein halla macha rakha hai bas! Mard kya kare? Uss bechaare Dev ki tarah, tameez ke naam pe laachaar ban ke rahe?
Ek aad galti ka issue bana ke aise hi bakwas karte hain. Ladkon ka jeena haraam kar diya hai!
If there is anything wrong in society it is girls with too much freedom and bad mothers like Sakshi!
Q - Boys and fathers have any responsibility or not?
TRP UNCLE - Mard kaam karega ki bachche sambhalega? Waise bhi mard ka khoon garam hota hai, aurat ko sambhalna chahiye. If men like Rajnath have affairs it is due to bad wives like Sakshi and available loose character women like Raima. If boys like Shaurya exist then it is due to bad mothers like Sakshi and loose women who slept with him or slapped him. Women bring out worst in man.
Q - What is your idea of justice then?
TRP UNCLE - That's not for us mortals to decide. Insaaf ke naam pe kuch bhi karo! Yeh toh koi baat nahi! Taking things in own hands causes anarchy. And going to courts is a futile hassle.đ¤
Q - What do you think about Durga's plans and those proofs against Goenkas?
TRP UNCLE - Bakwas! Velle baithe bachpane mein jo karna tha kar liya! Ab bas kar Durga! She is married and needs to plan family now.
Proofs se kuch nahi hoga. Bade logon ka kuch nahi bigadta. Unke scandal aate jaate rehte hain. So what? Yeh expose kar bhi de toh kuch nahi hoga. Unhone pata nahi kitno ko barbaad kiya hai, woh toh nahi padey inke peeche? Toh Durga ko hi kyun problem hai? Waise bhi 2 saal puraane case ko koi nahi poochta. Iske kaunsa maa baap zinda ho jayenge ya guzra waqt waapas milega? Kuch nahi rakha!
She should grow up, settle down, serve husband, make babies and look after that sick sister.
Q - What do you look forward to in Ek Hasina Thi?
TRP UNCLE - Shaadi hui hai toh obviously kuch saas bahu ka masala, Durga ki suhaag raat Dev ke saath aur Shaurya ki jalan. Waise Rajnath says he wants to go for holiday. I also want to see how he holidays with Raima or Sakshi. Holiday bolte hain par dikhate hi nahi!
Kangana bhi achi hai. Dekhte hain kya gul khilaati hai Karan se saath.đ
Q - What about Payal sir?
TRP UNCLE- Tch tch. I pity her. Muft mein maari gayi. I hope she dies a peaceful death. Ab jee ke bhi kya karegi? Kya pata kab theek hogi. Theek ho bhi jaye toh aisi ladki ko kaun poochta hai? Bechaari!
Inn sisters aur inke parents ka haal dekh kar realise hota hai why people don't want girl child. Why female foeticide is right option...
Q - You think Goenkas should never have to pay for their deeds?
TRP UNCLE - Arre!đĄ Kya pay?đ˛ Bade log aise hi hote hain. But phir bhi unka beta Shaurya bechaara paralyse ho gaya, Dev ko uska sasur Dayal bhi nachata hai aur unko Durga jaisi bigdi hui ghatiya bahu mili, isse badi sazaa aur kya ho sakti hai? They are paying only na? Tumko aur kya chahiye?
Arre humse poocho galat biwi ya bahu kaise jeevan nasht karti hain! Umar qaid se bhi battar!đ˛
Q - What is your message for readers of Kolkata Khobor and viewers of Ek Hasina Thi?
TRP UNCLE - Yeh Kolkata Khobor kya hai? Naam tak nahi suna!đĄ You do not represent even 10% of real audience! Tum aajkal ke log bahut khit pit karte ho!
Chup chaap serial dekho na! Dimaag kyun lagate ho? Itna hi dimaag hai toh padhaai mein lagao, kaam mein lagao! Tum jaison ke chakkar mein pehle iss serial mein kitne boring Savdhan India type episodes aate the!đĽą
Acha hua ab serial track pe hai. Entertainment aur masala chahiye. Bas aur kuch nahi.
Ek Hasina Thi ab sahi chal raha hai.
Q - Do you think it matches quality of past shows of 90s..TRP UNCLE (cuts in) - Bahut sawaal pooch liye! Ab bas kar!đĄ
Unn serials ka time gaya. Hum jawaan aur chust the tab. Ab dimaag saath kam deta hai. Isiliye aajkal ke slow aur same same (repetitive) story wale serial humein samajhne mein asaani hoti hai. Humare saath saath humare bachchon ke bachchon ko bhi yehi dekhne ki aadat ho gayi hai toh bas yehi chalta hai!
Samjhe? Acha! Bye!
(Sar khaa liya uff! Mutters and shoos us away)
