How would you feel if your child is subjected to any of the following conditions:
1) Asked to spend an entire year on a competition and tough it along with already busy school curriculum.
2) Prepare daily for an year for a weekly shooting schedule according to the whims and fancies of some producers, musicians and so-called "coaches".
3) Even after all the preparations and giving their best, told that it is still not good enough and you have to improve.
4) Told that you performance is good, but you lack "Attitude" by a panel of STAR Judges.
5) Told that you are part of a family and not a competition... but you might be eliminated if you do not give best every week.
6) Worst of all... the kid is left at an emotionally confused and hurt state as a result of continuous tinkering and tampering of STAR Judges.
We can rightfully conclude that any child subjected to the following questions is a VICTIM OF CHILD ABUSE and the perpetrators must be punished. This my friends is what happens day-in and day-out in your favorite AIRTEL SUPER SINGER JUNIOR TV Show on Vijay Tv. I now agree that it is a popular show watched by a large num ber of viewers. But, don't you think that the duration of the show (1 year plus) is way too long? You start with 25 kids and you need 52 weeks to come up with the best of the lot? The kids literally waste a year of their school life and the worst part is that their life is totally controlled by the producers, judges and voice coaches. With all due respect to Mano, Chitra and Malgudi Subha, they do a real bad job of judging the kids. They look for attributes like attitude, costumes, facial expressions etc in a buch of kids while they should be judging them based on their singing. Also a lot of times, it looks like they are fixated on certain kids and seem to overlook the rest. The judges are excellent singers and I do not doubt that for a moment, but they definitely have to learn on giving the kind of feedback that would have a positive impact on the kids. I have seen that some of the kids have become burnt-out with the constant stress and pressure that their performances have taken a dip for the fall. So, here's what to do if you are a :
PARTICIPANTS: The next time a judge tells you something that is unrelated to music (like expression, attitude), show them the finger.
JUDGES: Just give the damn title to ALKA and end the show. The kid is obviously the best since the beginning and no one is even close.
VIEWER: Stop watching the show. Producers will lose advertisers and automatically wrap it up in 3 months.
PARENT: Keep your kids away from the SUPER SINGER Studios and save them from becoming an abuse victim.
