'Sri Krishna' on reality show!: Saurabh Raj Jain says, 'Going down to shameful limits to get TRP, not entertainment but disgusting performance'

Actor Saurabh Raj Jain, who played the role of Lord Krishna in the famous TV show 'Mahabharat', has raised questions on the reality show. He says, "The extent to which the makers are going down to get TRPs is shameful." His statement comes at a time when shows like 'Lockup 2', 'Alliance' and 'Bhojpuri Bawal' are in the news on the OTT platform. Saurabh Raj Jain took to his official Instagram account and wrote, "I was told to keep quiet on this issue as I have nothing to do with it professionally. But as a human being, it is necessary to speak now. Reality shows now need to face their own reality. The extent to which they have stooped just to get TRPs is extremely shameful. This is not entertainment at all. This is a disgusting display of sick mentality, inhumanity, mental torture, cruelty and perverted thinking." 'Why is the host of the show watching everything in silence?' he said, 'I wonder how such a big and famous host can silently watch all this happen on a show like this and let it happen? This is very sad and worrying. Hopefully, there is still some prudence left in the industry and it will be reined in time. What kind of standards are we setting for the society?" These days, 3 reality shows are in the news. The first is 'Lockup 2', which streamed on Netflix, whose winner is Shreya Kalra. The second show is Amazon Prime's 'Alliance' and the third is Jio Hotstar's 'Bhojpuri Bawal'. While 'Alliance' is a clean reality show of strategy, Netflix's 'Lockup 2' has been mired in controversies due to abuse and fights. Sexuality was mocked in the show and obscene language was also used. Apart from this, the reality show 'Bhojpuri Bawal', which is streaming on Jio Hotstar from August 2, is also in the discussion, in which Bhojpuri actresses are seen making fun of Bollywood actresses. Saurabh Raj has been a part of 2 reality shows, 'Khatron Ke Khiladi 11' and 'Nach Baliye'. Notably, Saurabh Raj has been seen in many mythological shows like 'Devon Ke Dev Mahadev', 'Mahakali: Ant Hi Aarambh Hai', 'Mahabharat'. He got his true identity from the character of Lord Krishna in the Mahabharata. Apart from this, he has also appeared in 'Kasam Se', 'Parichay', 'Meet Mila De Rabba' and 'Patiala Babes'.
