Debate of Day: Is Entertainment Over Rated?

July 23, 2006- July 24, 2006

Is Entertainment over-rated? 🤔

Meaning that there are people in this world who almost worship an actor/actress. There are others who are crazy fans. So are those in the entertainment industry given too much importance? Where do we draw the line? 😳❓

Who is the most over-rated actor/actress on television and in bollywood?

Maybe Ejaz Khan... or Rajeev Khandewal.... how about Iqbal Khan?😉 Perhaps, Aamna Sharif, or Smirthi Irani ahem ahem and Nausheen Ali Sadar Ji?

So what do you think, please no one liners, and most importantly have fun!!!!!!😳

Love always,

IF Development Team

wow nice topic!
i think entertainment is overrated to a certain extent when it gets to the point of obsession but then it can also be a healthy break from an otherwise stressful life...i think if the dosage is right then its all good 😆 ...i think people in the entertainment industry are given a lot of importance but then again they are doing their job which is to entertain and it works....
hmm most overrated...hehe i think mostly all have their strengths/weaknesses and the industry and public is quick to point out these things so i feel every actor has what they deserve....there are several underrated actors/actresses but as far as the others go i think they have worked up to where they are now....
btw love this topic!! 😃

Hey!! Nice topic! I think that entertainment is overated, and actors/actresses are given more importance than they should be given! I agree that they entertain us, and help us relax, and all that stuff... But, still, they don't deserve so much attention that we give them..

They are normal human beings like u and me, then why whn they come to ur town, u go crazy over them, trying to get their autographs and stuff.. What are u gonna get by doing that? You like them, watch them on TV, and just get it over it! So what if u're their biggest fan, there are millions of ppl like u out there, and no are the actors gonna come and look for u, and ask u out on a date or something?? So, what's the point??

My question would be that if a really intellectual person, who has done something important for us, came to ur town, just like these actors/actresses, would u give them the same importance?? Some of us might not even know who they are, or what have they done! I mean it's okay to like entertainment to some point, but there is a limit to everything, and u shouldn't get obsessed with it.. And, sometimes, it's just crazy to see how over-rated entertainment/entertainers can get! I'm not saying that we should ignore the entertainers completly, but there should be a limit to how much importance we give to them.. 😊

Well i think Television should be given inportance which is a form of entertainment becuz its a medium thorugh which ppl can learn good things and bad things!In the early times when Television arrived 2,3 Years before there was less or no bloodshed and gangster-type stories in it,so the society also avoided with these things.But today when TV is in every home,Lots of bloodshed,Khoon-Kharaba!Even if there r less shows like this but they are!

As regarding Fans i dont think theres any burai in being a fan but one shoould be a fan in limits!

Currently on the Top is Amna Sharrif,Ronit Roy and Rajeev Khandelwal.But my personal favourite is Sudha Chandran,Mouly Ganguly,Yash Tonk and otherss...😃

Very nice topic 👏👏

I dont think the entertainment in television is overrated.. If we are taking only television industry and artisits of television industry into discussion, then i would say, they are not over rated... This is because, if a film star can get so much of status and get many awards, then why not a television artist?

Infact the television artists work more than the film industry artists.. They work day and night just give us entertainment... A film industry artist, though work for a long time and is talented in many aspects, a television industry artist works more than the film industry artist.. This is not a comparison.. But it is just a fact that if a film industry artist can get Padmashree and Padmabhushan and Dada Saheb awards, there is no doubt that the television industry artists are not over rated...

They need not be given all these awards, but the praise and appreciation tat they are recieving these days, are not unfair and its fair...

I dun think so..😕Dey shud be given importance but... atleast, dey r human-beings lyk us nd v shud neva worship dem.V believe dere is one God, only One, nd v worship him only.V shud not worship ne actor, after all he/she is a normal Human-Being lyk us.. !

Jus de difference is dat dey ave been shown on TV nd v rn't?

Den y dun ppl worship dose who r human-beings lyk us but not shown on tv?

So, de reason behind all dat I wrote above is dat.. yea, v r crazy ova actors but v shud NOT worship dem.V shud not be so passionate.After all, v neva went crazy ova dem since dey were not shown on tv😕??!

None ov de small-screen actor is ovarated, as far as I think.But wen de big-screen actors lyk Amitabh, Srk r ova rated den y not dese small-screen actors shud be??De film industry artists work for a long period ovv tym nd den de movie releases nd dey r restingBut de small-screen artists r working daily 24 hours because most ov dem work in daily soaps.Y r film industry artists given much more importance den?But in today's world, dese small-sceen daily soaps artists r also given equal kinda importance.I used to lyk SRK a lot .. nd still like his acting but since I saw Rajeev Khandelwal, I turned into a huge huge fan ov Rajeev.nd even I compare rajeev wid srk sumtyms😳.Dis shows even de small-screen actors r given much much importance.nd yes, dey shud be !!!!! dey deserve dis!!!! after all, dey work 24 hours 😊, dont dey 😊?

Its true.Currently on top is Rajeev, Eijaz nd Iqbal nd dey'll always remain on top nd will always be in our heart😳

I dun worship actors/actresses but yes, I'm crazy 'bout few ov dem who deserve to be lyked nd luved by everyone due to deir mind-blowing acting.In short, Entertainment isn't ovarated, In ma opinion.

I think that the entertainment industry is on the verge of crossing the border and becoming over-rated...

  • Pple worship da actors/actresses as if they were God, to admire an actor/actress is ok but it sometimes goes overboard which is the main reason for an actor/actress's personal life being publisized.
  • The only good thing about the entertainment industry being over-rated is that when the acotrs/actresses/singers get togehter for a public cause like aids we actually sit up and listen to them.
  • Also directors and story-writers are taking advantage of this power by making movies which mainly has alot of nudity involved we all want to watch bollywood movies which have the whole package entertainment,romance,dance,masti e.t.c but how are we going to do that when most of the music videos made today have nudity and obscene scenes??
  • All i'm trying to say is that there is nothing wrong about being a fan of an actor/actress...

But there is a limit for everything and frankly the entertainment industry is on the verge of crossing that limit..
