I think that ndtv india and 24x7 are the best and cleanest channels around in india these days as nowadays while other channels focussing on ludicrious news with programs like sansani ,hatyara kaun hosted by people who appear as they themselves have come breaking jail ndtv has brought good entertaining as well as useful programs like big fight,cricket controversies but according to me gustaki maaf is best.the show which I believe is produced and conceptalised by arun thapar of chupa rustam takes a rather tongue in cheek look at issues making news
concept with the help of puppets
gustaki maaf basically is name of show hosted by prem taneja(puppet journalist) who invites various newsmakers ranging from politicians to cricketers and filmstars(puppets obviously) to discuss current issues surrounding them.the show also has special short features like laaloo pathshala and shayri session with atal bihari vajpayee with a guest artist everyday.the good thing about this show is that it focusses on current issue and is funny without being vulgar.the show has featured various puppets of various people like vajpayee,advani,sachin,amitabh,sonia,laloo,srk,dharmendra,mulayam,ahok gehlot and various others but according to me puppets involving inzamam,sidhu,manmohan singh,sourav ganguly,bush, behan mayawati are most hilarious but according to me the best among them is undoutedly their take off of pervez musharaf and shayri spewing amar singh and even the host does a good job.it is a must watch if you are looking for refreshing entertainment
