Worst 5. Review on Five Worst Serials of the Year

Five worst serials of the year.

Difficult to choose isn't it. Lemme tell ya I'm not into any hindi serial whatsoever.

Some common characteristics of these eye-closers are-

Best Before - as soon as they start.

Cast - Zombies Galore.

Specially recommended for -Ur worst enemies(god save them)

Big Boon For -Make-up, grooming and glycerine producing firms.

''Pioneered'' By -Ms. Ekta Kapoor.

Now some specific advices ...er Alerts -

Kkkkkkyunki...Kkkkkkkusum.....Kkkkkumkum....Kkkkkkkasauti ... par khari nahi utarti.

Whoa! SRK must be having problems in pronouncing these names. I once read in a physics lesson that everything has its elastic limit. Whoever wrote it definitely hadn't seen any of the Balaji flicks. One soul saved. Amen. These serials don't have any elastic limit whatsoever. They go on until the producer's brain (or the rather lack of it) demands. Endless bitching and unreasonable melodrama. Ekta in one of her interviews said - ''These serials are pioneering the art of serial making in India and are high on TRP''. Maybe she's right about the TRP thing (courtesy the Indian matajis and auntijis) but pioneering?....

Karishma... a blunder of destiny -

This is a daily soap (SOS) and has over 1000 episodes. So don't expect respite any time soon. It has so much of crying and weeping that it should be renamed -''1001 ways of crying''. Yeah...the budget is big and is used to change the sets everyday (talk of change). Sadly it is a regular in my home. Pray for my survival.

Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin -

Koi ho bhi nahi sakti. Many people like this one but I just don't. My grand-daddy must've been wearing one of those spects. No substance just one twist after another in a seemingly unending fashion. They say the Delhi Police have found a new way to implement 3rd Degree. No prizes for guessing what it is.

Shakalaka Boom Boom-

Jaadoo High (read desi Hogwarts) gets the prize for being the wierdest thing on Planet Earth. There are people who have huge blisters-like things on their heads, big, pointed noses, and dresses so shiny that U'll have to wear sunglasses while watching. Yes it is for kids but today's kids are smart enough to recognise a mindless copies.

Raja aur Rancho -

Years pass by but this serial just won't budge in any respect. Raja (not Rancho) must be current the heart-throb of the monkeys who apparently have something more than ancestral relations with the producer/directors. The detective clad in brown-orange jacket and tight fit jeans .... dashing, isn't it. CSI-Miami should be taking notes by now.

PS. No harm intended. This review is expected to be read in humorous mind-set.
