This is a show for those who want to have fun, the Indian way. We all know that Indian politics is a very good tamasha, and it is effectively highlighted by the king of satire and humor, Shekhar Suman.
The show is one of my favorites. It has 2 host shekhar and the Bandar( monkey). The shekhar is the real host and the Bandar is one of the 3 bandars of Gandhiji. This show is about the way politicians in India fool people around by giving contradictory statesmen in public. As shekhar rightly puts it that he is just a common platform of all the common man. And has no personal feeling about anyone.
This all started with the declaration of general election in the country. Shekhar had to tell the full report about the work done by fellow MP (mostly high profile MP?s) in their constituency. He also said, he kept an eye over the mal practices of elections. Even that time the program was called ?POLL-KHOL?
After the formation of government it was to end but on popular demand it was restarted by star news. Now it has expanded its scope from politicians to other famous people, cricketers any many more. The name of this series is ?POL-KHOL? to make it more linked to its work.
Some funny instance are there when Mr siddhu was asked about a rally that he had organized in jarkhand where he said that it is to show that ?sarkar logo se chalti hai, log mein itna akrosh hai ki vo satta palat sakte hai?(people can change the government ). Shekhar said that siddhu ji sarkar to BJP ki hi hai is liya zara sambhalkar boliye.
It is the terror of this shekhar and Bandar jodi which made shanawaz hussain say ?zara sambhalkar boliye ye hamari poll khol denge? and;
Once PK team also spotted an close aide of Laluji advising him to speak less by saying ?ye to suman shekhar show wale hai?
The last section called phir kiski bari hai(now whose turn) where he gives a very straight forward one-liners to the general public over their questions.
Some funny answers are as follows
Q> why is Left still angry with Dr Montek S Ahluwalia
since he has not invited them to dinner or tea party as done by PM and FM.
Q>what can u say about the film titles of pooja bhat
ab ?PAAP? kiya hai to ?ROG? lagna hi tha.
Q> what is the so hue and cry over 10%tax on cash withdrawal?
this is to ensure that so much hue and cry is made over this issue that all other taxes are ignored.
So those of who are not watching this do watch it on star news
