Serials on ”Real people” and ”real emotions” bring “breath of fresh air” on TV
Even as an “ad-nauseam” display of kitchen politics creates a sense of ”déjà vu” among TV viewers, a host of ”new wave” professionals bursting with creative ideas are striving to infuse a “breath of fresh air” on small screen with their serials portraying the “real emotions of the real people”. Amid a scene filled with ”Saas-Bahu” sagas or serials dealing with family rivalries, shows like ”Kittu Sab Janti Hai” and Sati-Satya Ki Shakti” on Sahara One, ”India Calling” on Star One” and ”Jab Luv Hua” on Zee TV invariably come as a relief for TV viewers bored to death by the surfeit of “family dramas” on the tube. The latest in the list of “real life sagas” seeking to revolutionise the Indian television scene is ”Left Right Left”, a show dealing with the dilemmas, hopes and aspirations of the youth of this country, to be aired on SAB TV from today. It is a story of six confused and disoriented youth who, looking for their true calling in life, end up at a pre-NDA academy.
