What's your take on the celebrity episodes??? Do you like it or not??? Why
I think celebrity episodes are mostly boring(my apologies to the celebrities who take time off for this).The show with ASVOI contestants are ok coz they at least sing well.Most of the celebrities can't even stick to a tune which makes the watching the episode a minor form of torture 😉(for me,at least )....they also have very limited knowledge of movies/songs/lyrics..and antakshari is as much abt knowledge of music as abt singing.I wld,however like to watch a celebrity episode with the top playback singers/music directors of today sans Himesh reshmiyya.He is one person who tests my limits of patience.But ppl lke sonu ngam,shaan,sunidhi,shreya,Vishal shekhar etc wld be nice to watch.I think if we have singers on the show they have a good knowledge of songs and also sing well.I have seen an old episode of sonu nigam on antakshari and he did very well.His knowledge of songs is amazing.I presume the others wld be good too... and being young they (might) have the enthu/energy needed for such a show.
Do you think that it would be interesting to have a whole season of celebrities to compete???
no way.I wld stop watching the show.they get too lenient with celebrities and treat them like gods and goddesses.....appreciating the slightest effort from them.I think they feel kind of obligated towrds the celebrities/whtever.So its no fun.
Will this help to raise the trp's and get more viewers ????
maybe,some ppl might like to watch it.But it won't get my vote.
Who would you like to see music composers, reality show singers, tv actors or any other in the showbiz ????
as I already said,music composers,singers,reality stars(who r also singers) are fine.Ppl with zero music background shldn't be invited,it is quite torturous.but normal ppl,like u & me,are best at antakshari,i think.
Should it again be the zonal representation or should be something else ???
I'm sick of this zonal representation.It is getting nauseating now.😔 they shld really have some other way of team dividion.The prithvi,agni,jal thing was a refreshing change.the zonal thing leads to unnecessary war and ill feelings between zones .It was ok for a change initialy,but now it is getting tiring.
What do u think should be different for celebrities ????
I think nothing shld be different for celebrities.they shld play antakshari the way normal ppl do... and for that reason they shldn't call too many celebrities.... coz as i see it,celebrities do not have half the knowledge we ppl have!!!
Continue discussing !!!!
