ragging on TV

August 25th, 2008 Posted in television

Ragging is obviously our national pass time and since they banned it we now put it on the damned TV.

Dadagiri, a show on Bindass (the youth channel? Urgh.) is all about ragging. The self-proclaimed ‘meanest show on tv’ involves 4 contestants or fucchas (I never understood what that word meant but I know newbies are referred to as that).

The mean guys come in one by and one and abuse, heckle, dominate the contestants. From snake dances to climbing ropes, the fucchas do the drill. Of course this is peppered with the correct number of beeped out abuses. If you lose you have to eat worms out of a shit pot. (How did they get this on TV!!)

I have only 2 questions:

1. To Bindass
Why the hell would you create such a show? Why would you allow your anchors to pick on a scrawny fellow with glasses. Wasn’t it enough when it happened in school?

2. To the dadas of dadagiri
Get a life will you?

Dadagiri, you are not cool che-ed.
