Television's worst reality shows
Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hai





Paanchvi Pass evoked mixed reactions from viewers. There were inevitable comparisons between the Indian format hosted by Shah Rukh Khan and the original, Are You Better Than A 5th Grader.

Some of the viewers thought the Fox Broadcasting game show was far better. There are also comparisons to the first season of Amitabh Bachachan's hit game show, Kaun Banega Crorepati.

The organisers are trying to boost TRP ratings by getting on star contestants like the Bidaai actresses, Sara Khan and Parul Chauhan. Lets wait and watch if the TRPs pick up after the ongoing Indian Premier League
Sawal Dus Karod Ka





Sawal Dus Karod Ka was supposed to be Zee TV's answer to Star's Kaun Banega Crorepati. The only difference was the prize money -- a mind-bogging sum of Rs 10 crores.

Despite the huge amount at stake, there were few takers. While Amitabh Bachchan and later, Shah Rukh Khan could connect with the audience on KBC, Sawal's... hosts, Anupam Kher and Manisha Koirala, left the audience cold.

Anupam was later replaced by Ashutosh Rana but the show never picked up.





Kahin Naa Kahin Koi Hain

Kahin Naa Kahin Koi Hai showed great promise when it was launched because it marked Madhuri Dixit's debut on the small screen. But the matrimonial show soon flopped.

One probable reason for it not doing well was that the audience found the whole thing fake.





K For Kishore

K For Kishore did not do well despite its original concept, unlike other reality shows. The show was dedicated to legendary singer Kishore Kumar, and was a good platform for budding singers. Surprisingly, readers gave a thumbs down to this show, preferring others that were copies.

Readers even felt that K For Kishore was an insult to the legend because the participants did not even come close to the great singer.

Readers weren't the only one who got tired of this show soon. It was evident that host Rajeshwari Sachdev had lost interest too when she was suddenly paired with Babul Supriyo, after hosting a couple of episodes solo





Shaava Shaava

When it was launched, Shaava Shaava looked like it had everything going for it. There were popular TV stars like Narayani Shashtri, Apurva Agnihotri, Juhi Parmar, Mouni Roy, Aman Verma, Manish Goel, Sumeet Raghavan and Divyanka Tripati. Plus, it had the best chat show hosts Karan Johar and Simi Garewal judging the show.

Unfortunately, the show was drab, and none of the contestants could sing. Fortunately, audiences had to bear the show for 11 days only.

Shaava was singing in a stretch for 8 of the 11 days by non-singers. Voice always gives away most of the time. so it is understood
Shaava was a different for me from other reality shows and a like the complete package and to top it Juhi was the finalist.
