Sach ka Saamna - Agnipariksha

Has anyone seen this popular show?

Have you ever had an affair with a married man? Have you ever enjoyed watching a male stripper take off his clothes at a party? Have you ever had surgery to physically enhance your appearance?
These are just some of the questions on a popular TV talk show that have raised the hackles of politicians in India.
They have held animated debates in parliament, arguing whether the Indian version of the hit American show Moment of Truth threatens India’s “moral and cultural values”.
The show, called Sach Ka Saamna (Face the Truth), was first aired two weeks ago, and is already one of the most-watched programmes on Indian television.
Some say it is possibly the most-watched show in the crowded market of reality TV.

But many of India’s politicians are much less enamoured with the show, which goads the participants to answer uncomfortably personal and sometimes embarrassing questions, in return for prize money.
The idea of discussing intimate personal details in public is completely new to Indians. Little surprise then, that the show has become a huge talking point.
Over the last few days, the issue has consistently come up for debate in the national parliament.
The MPs said those taking part in the show were being asked “obscene questions” about their personal lives in front of their families.
Statutory warning
The former deputy speaker of the upper house of parliament, Najma Heptullah, told the BBC that the series must be taken off air at once.
“What purpose are we serving with this programme?” she asks.
"If someone has cheated on his wife, why doesn’t he go and tell his wife? Why does he need to do that in public?
“If a girl decides to become pregnant as a minor, it is her problem! Why should that be said in public?”

Incidently in over a dozen episode, perhaps none except Vinod Kambli was able to take away some money from the show, rest of the participants have forfieted whatever money they have been winning coz of one false answer at last. Good for the producers.
