Directly from my blog - that I wrote a day back -
Popular American show - MTV Grind, which made no great sense while even in the US version . is now in its Indian version and is even more Ghinaask! . Oh My God.
I’d love to gape at bikinied babes+ its also something I consider good to have on TV .(just release some of that steam off the whole "sex"/"skin" things boss)
Instead a weekly feature on how Kingfisher Calendar is made would ve been more interesting.
The US version . if not for anything, would’ve made great viewership for all those happy people recorded over the years or maybe some other folks who’ve visited those beaches, or maybe for people who wanted to ogle at bikini clad women while in deep winters .
The Indian version - shot in a remarkably artificial set up . which for some joy is proudly displayed as fake, with a number of fake woman, with the VJ’s dancing themseleves in bikinis, with a very uncomfortable non fitting, over clothed Ayushman in the middle, with the "effort" literally showing up on faces, all those women "Trying" real hard . oh my GOD - MTV Grind is simply the most out of place crap on TV . !
As Aamir Khan says(quoted) - "Jo Chauka udte huwe jaaye, us-e chakka kehte hai"
Doesn’t make any sense? not fitting with the review? yeah . same thing with the show!
