What crap are they showing...kalpi working as a domestic help. I think the CV's are not aware that, in India, the law says that, it's a crime to employ children below 16 years of age and it is a punishable offence. Just for the sake of entertainment, the CV's have come up with the most disgusting and demeaning track. Hope they show a track where somebody threatens neetu filing a police complaint. 😡

The thought process of the rich lady (neetu i think is her name) is vile and disgusting and should be condemned.she being rich & am taking it that she's educated should actually mean that she will condemn child labour but instead she's taking saddistic pleasure in making that child a servant.how can you put up with the idea of that?as an adult,you should know what is wrong and whats right.instead this one wants to destroy a child's future.

I think EMA presents a great opportunity for what is called edutainment. This is a concept wherein social messages are presented through entertainment programmes. This way masses are reached and the message is carried to a large number of people.

I think this is a wonderful show with a strong message and should be supported.

Yes the law in manay countries forbid child labour, yet many people break the law and children are sold into labour and theri futures are destroyed. This show is highlighting a scourge in society and therefore we should make every effort to ensure that the message gets out and is received.

Hopefully when Kamla finds out, she will report Neetu to the police and the show will show the law being enforced so as to discourage the public from following Neetu's example.
