Sach ka Saamna – Face the Truth

Serial of Star plus whose host is “Rajeev Khandelwal” who has also worked in famous serials like “kahin toh hoga” on star plus, “Left right left” and also worked in acclaimed movie like “Aamir”. All his works have been appreciated not only by critics but by people too. He has shown his caliber well. He has transformed a lot and has come up as a rising and promising star of the television industry.

Its not new that serials and movies are inspired by foreign serials. The risk is less and its well tries popular product in foreign so its chances of failure reduces as compared to a new venture. The market is there but local influence and modifications are also required to cater to the needs of the people as well as keeping in mind the sentiments of all sections of the society. “Sach ka Saamna” is also inspired by foreign serial yet its well adapted and modified as per the Indian market.

Timing slot of telecast is very crucial in getting popularity and also TRP and other programs by competitive channels are also in the consideration. The time slot allotted to this show is also good and attractive.

The disputes and conflicts don’t stay apart from good and famous things for long. The serial got mention in the houses too as to hurt the sentiments of the people by the way of the program but later on the problem was sorted out. There is lot of hype around the program created by the media and news channels which keep on talking about the show, type of questions asked, interviewing the guests at the show etc. It’s the publicity to the show and its helping it in making people more curious and thereby making it more popular.

The show is gaining popularity day by day. There are many celebrities and common people too who have participated on the show. Some of the names are Vinod kambli, Raja Chowdhary and many more are on the list.

The game show consists of many questions which have to be answered by the participants and there polygraph tests which keeps in mind the heart beat, the lungs and other body pressures and test whether the person is having the normal effect or not. The other effects are also kept in mind.

There are a lot of preparations also done before the show. There is interview of the participant and he is asked a lot of questions regarding his personal and other aspects of life and his body effects are also monitors at that time. Consent of the person is taken to be on the show and the same can leave anytime on the show if he/she dosenot want to carry on any further.

There are 21 questions and different stopping points, which have to be crossed. The questions get tougher as the level increases upwards.

The show depicts that truth is not and easy thing to face. The persons are relaxed when they participate even if they have not won the show as they have face the truth. Some also raise questions on the machine checking the truthness of the fact. The life of many had changed after the show as hidden facts about the persons have come up on air, which have huge effects on the lives of the individuals. Such as Kambli has commented on his long time friend Sachin support in his troubled times, which was publicized by the media. Though Kambli has denied the fact later in the media but all will not agree to him.

Many questions asked are very tough ones especially about private life like secret affair, commitment, faith and other key issues, which are very tough to accept in public presence as it has huge effect on the life not only of the individual but also those who are related to the concerned.

What is highly appreciating on the show is the faith in the truth. The concept that its difficult to face the truth and we all are wearing masks in our everyday life much different from what is apparent to outsiders, well wishers and some truth is not even known to closed ones. Truth is the daring task to face. To reveal ones private life in public is not too easy task. Though it can vary from individual to individual on the basis of perception. Its shown in the movies and stories that truth prevails in the end, that truth wins over the lies. Its difficult to walk on the path of truth as there will be lot of hurdles but tension to get caught will be less.

The questions asked are do u have an affair with the other woman or woman of half your age, Will u accept the spouse again if he be sorry to you, have you beaten your wife etc which not only sounds tough to hear but its difficult to imagine the heart of those who can accept it in public. But as is believed by me if one has done it then why the shame in accepting the same.

Innovation is the need of the time. Where there is a risk, there is a gain. No doubt that this show has faced many hurdles in the past to come so long like getting government permission, trying the new concept in the Indian context but the returns are also coming on the way. There are some demerits also like some questions are not taken in good interest by many of the family audiences and not very appreciating for small children also as there are better programs fro them to watch out for. It’s a reality show where there is mirch and masala too. It’s not a regular saas bahu, love story, singing or dancing show. It’s something different.

Truth is different from a lie in many respects but both can be felt as the both sides of a coin.
