The singer Abhijeet Sawant expressed that the show is based on contestants' sob stories rather than their vocal talents.
New Delhi: Winner of Indian Idol (season 1) Abhijeet Sawant recently slammed the singing reality TV show - Indian Idol 12, in an interview with a leading daily. The singer expressed that the show is based on contestants' sob stories rather than their vocal talents. In an interview with Aaj Tak, he said, "These days, the makers are more interested in whether the participant can polish shoes or how poor he is, rather than his talent. You should watch regional reality shows where viewers may not know anything about the background of their favourite contestants. Their focus is only on singing, but in Hindi reality shows, the tragic and sad stories of contestants are shown. The focus is only on that." He continued bashing the show by saying that the show purposely overdramatizes and exaggerates moments to entice viewers with the drama.More Related News
