About the program:
One of the livin-couple comes to UTV Bindass Emotional Atyachaar program and says that they want
to do loyalty test on their partner (It can be a girl or guy). This person is called the "lead" (later called "victim")
Then the UTV-Bindass EA team sends their spy crews with their spy cameras to lead’s partner called the "suspect". They also send a bait to lure the "suspect" into the "game". The bait is called the "agent".
So the agent (boy or girl depending on the "suspect") meets the suspect, flirts, makes friendship and starts laying all kind of traps to lure the "suspect" into the loyalty test game.
All these are captured on spy cameras (spy cameras either secretly located in "agent" car, or carried in bag by spy crew or worn by spy crews) so you get some decent audio but some times poor video footage. The lead is called into UTV Bindass EA control room, then they show all the footage of previous 2-4 days. The lead (if a girl is sobbing now - pouring her heart out, or if a guy is fuming) is with the host. Now at that same time, the agent has lured the suspect into a flat which is in the same building as the control room. And they begin to show the live footage. (of suspect and agent). So the lead watches live footage of her/his partner fooling around with the agent. Now the host takes the lead to the live action room - and the fight breaks out between the partner. This is the gist and summary of the show.
Every week there is a new lead, but the sequence of events are same.
Now to my review:
For some reasons, most of the leads or suspects are models. Some times they blur the identity of suspects. The plot is very predictable, once you watch couple of shows, you know what is going to happen. But some might continue to watch for guilty pleasure. More than feeling bad for suspect, who is being disgraced on national TV, I feel sorry for the lead.
What kind of person will come on national TV to expose her/his partner? Unless they want to be popular on TV and get their 15 mins of fame. I wish they put some intelligence on this show. (Well some times there are psychologists who gives their 2 cents. It would have been much better if they used this to educate today’s youth of what to do and what not to do in a relationship. How to avoid becoming a victim? The show treads a thin line with being sensational - obviously most of the footage are censored. This is kind of show, where copy cats will dare not to copy. Its too hard and risky to copy the show unlike
all those reality talent shows.
So UTV Bindass scores big in being original in this show. Its real people getting cheated on national TV.
You might cry for them, you might laugh at them or you might derive pleasure out of their pain.
In the end, I feel sorry for every one involved. Yes even the TV crew.
