WHEN a youth-oriented show called Remix first hit Indian television screens in November 2004,it set a trend for several other youth-based shows. The story was based on the lives of Class XII students,set in an elite school called Maurya High,their lives,insecurities,friendships,rivalries,and ambitions. The show has now made a comeback on Channel V.
Shrishti Arya,producer,Rose Movies,says,The show is more relevant now than ever before. Barnali Ray Shukla,the shows writer,agrees. Rebellion doesnt go out of fashion and neither does Remix, she says.
According to Ray Shukla,youth today have no qualms about being vocal. In fact,they are waiting to be heard. So it is high time we start talking, she says. Arya,who has been keen on reviving the concept,also believes it is a good time because in the last decade a lot has changed. A whole new social networking generation has now emerged. The insecurities and competition have increased, she says.
Ray Shukla also has a variety of subjects she wants to focus on if she happens to write the shows second season. There is a lot to focus on quarter-life crisis,unorthodox career choices,friends with benefits,peer pressures in social bearing,lack of real friendships,the Me-Me-Me generation,same sex relationships,loneliness,and addictions, he says.
