Anu Kapoor's behaviour Dec13/08 - Page 6

Hello. I have been watching Ek Se Badhkar Ek (reality TV show) since it was first launched. I honestly have to say that I am highly DISAPPOINTED in Mr. Anu Kapoor for the disaster he exemplified on the show (which was aired), December 13, 2008. I understand that there was a huge catastrophe with the city of Mumbai and I would like to send my condolences to the lost heroes and their families. Although, the reason for my disappointment is due to the way Mr. Anu Kapoor reacted on the set by disrespecting and screaming at Mr. Kunal Kohli. I can understand the emotions for patrioticism, although this type of conduct is not acceptable for viewers such as children and adolescents to be watching. In fact, I personally am disturbed after viewing the way Mr. Kapoor reacted towards Mr. Kohli.

Since this show is a "family entertainment" show, Mr. Kapoor should give a public (aired) apology to Mr. Kohli, the contestants, and the viewers for his conduct.

Thank you for your time and Good Luck in all your endeavors.

I totally agree with Dr. Aroos Naeem, regarding his comments of Anu Kapoor's act on the show of Ek Se Badkar Ek on Dec 13th 08. He should exacty do what Dr. Naeem suggest he do, he should go on live and apologize to the contestants, to the viewers and to his fellow judges for his unprofessional behavior on that show. And,if the response is positive, he should carry on as a judge, otherwise I think for his sake and the rest, it will be best for him to leave the show. Hope he will learn from this sad episode and move on with his life. I wish him all the best.

If you are all so concerned about what happened, why don't you call and lodge a complaint to Zee TV , instead of arguing on the forum ? Talking about AKs behaviour and KK's humiliation doesn't make any difference ... but your words can ... otherwise we can talk about this here for ages and nothing will change.

If you are in the US, call +1.817.274.2933 - a live person will answer the phone, just politely tell her that you wish to file a complaint about a Zee programme, and as far as I remember she will put you through to Mr. Bindra with whom you can speak in person.

Take some action instead of simply discussing it.

That's great, Xbsd! Now, people can call in and lodge a complaint to Zee TV regarding the unpleasant outburst that Anu Kapoor had shown on the episode of Ekse Badkar Ek, Chhota Packet Bada Dhamaka. Thanks again for listing the toll free numbers.

annu kapoor behaved unprofessionally, but i think there are a few things that are being overlooked about what happened and maybe people are kind of over-reacting to his over-reaction (sorry if that offends anyone):

1. i may be wrong, but i think this episode was probably recorded soon after the mumbai terrorist attack. in that light, i think people's emotions are very raw these days. annu kapoor has always been hyper-sensitive about patriotism, so this whole situation probably has him on a more emotional level then usual, thus the outburst.

2. i don't think the last song was directed towards kunal. as in point 1 above, i think it was more aimed for the people in india who helped those terrorists. so it is more of a rally cry that let's protect india.

3. the reference to the earlier antakshari episode - i kind of remember that one. he became very angry because the contestant knew the details down to birthday of amitabh bachchan and other celebrities but couldn't name the president of his own country. i thought that was shameful at the time - annu kapoor over-reacted at that time, too, but i think his message was right that people in india are more obsessed with film stars and sports stars and completely ignorant of what is really important for their own country.

annu kapoor is a hyper-emotional person who has outbursts, and, i am not defending his behavior, but i am saying that maybe try to understand why he may have acted as he did - there might be a little more depth than people are giving him credit for.

p.s. i don't blame kunal for leaving the stage. i am sure that having someone stand up and scream at me in front of an audience and on-camera would be very humiliating just because i disagreed with him and stated my opinion. annu kapoor should definitely apologize to him for that.
