Browbeating Works

“All the humiliation and sarcasm is actually to goad them into doing it,instead of giving up,” said Kanika,representing the TV channel.

To prove her point,Vishal,whose job on the show is to hit where it hurts,said “Guys and girls actually came up to thank me saying had it not been for the deriding things I said,they would have never been able to touch the finishing line.”

What actually are these tasks?

Screening a sample clip,in which participants are shown transferring clusters of human hair floating in red chilli sauce from one bowl to another,the show representatives said that as gruesome as they appeared the challenges were actually simple,moreso considering the prize at the end—a motorcycle and a whopping Rs 10 lakh.

“My sarcasm knocked the socks off the egoistical males on the show and they were changed persons after the girls outdid them,” said Sonali,fashion model turned anchor,who replaced the girl in the first season of the show.

“Trust us,the 15-episode stint with all the bullying,taunting and braving sub-zero climes left the participants anything but bruised or crippled. On the contrary,they all admitted that they were the braver to face what challenges life springs up for them hence,” chorused the show members.

“Besides,everytime someone found himself hit below the belt,I was right there to cheer them up,” says Akaash,the host,whose job profile demanded no browbeating.
