Fans of the popular reality show Indian Idol are eagerly anticipating the moment when their favorite contestant will take home the trophy as the show's final episode draws closer by 13 inches. The top finalists will compete against one another with their soulful voices in the finale, which is expected to take place on April 2.
The show, on the other hand, started in September 2022 and ran for seven months before ending in April. The reality singing show appears to have transcended all ethical boundaries while putting format and content in the background. It is now nothing more than a drama series with forced production of fake content to maintain its position in the ratings.
Let's discuss on this week's Wahiyat Wednesday why such reality shows continue to air for months and how they have destroyed the content's essence, thereby losing viewers' interest.
INDIAN IDOL 13- A PROLONGED SHOW
Indian icon 13, an unscripted TV drama decided by Neha Kakkar, Vishal Dadlani, and Himesh Reshammiya, has transformed into a joke now. The show's prolonged TV run demonstrates that it is being overloaded with unnecessary content in order to maintain its position on the rating chart.
The tryouts for the show began in July 2022 following its going on air from September 10, 2022. Seven months have passed since the show began airing, and its final episode will air on April 2. Indian Idol was not the only reality show to begin after the singing competition ended.
Bigg Boss 16, hosted by Salman Khan, began airing in October 2022 and ended on February 12 despite receiving positive ratings. After running successfully for five months, the show, which began with 14 contestants in October, selected MC Stan as the winner. Due to its popularity and popularity among fans, Bigg Boss 16 was given an extension. Nevertheless, it ended within the allotted time.
Aside from this, there has been a lot of confusion about eviction since the show started. The contestants have not been eliminated in many weeks. The result was an unnecessary delay in the show. Shockingly, the show's adjudicator, Neha Kakkar, vanished so she has not gotten back yet.
Despite the show's popularity, Indian Idol 13 was criticized for promoting emotional content and selling sob stories. It frequently depicts contestants and judges crying, glorifying their struggles. By including the parents as well, they went too far. Additionally, fake love angles, such as Bidipta-Rishi and Chirag Kotwal-Kavya Limaye, have been created. The judges' cliche judgments and gimmicks have also been widely rejected.
The producers of the show have added another strategy where they welcome different conspicuous visitors who consequently share their close-to-home excursion. The reality show has evolved into a platform for film promotion as well as a platform for emerging singing talents, with actors frequently appearing on the show to promote their upcoming films.
Should we say goodbye or goodbye on April 2, when the show comes to an end?
