The insipid interviews of Karan Johar, titled Koffee with Karan, assumes the viewer really wants to know the answers to the inane questions he asks, and even worse, the lack of intelligence our stars show when answering them, not to mention the poor taste in clothes etc.
However, if the aim of Starworld is to prove to the rest of the world that Indians have low criteria for television entertainment, then this is a good way to go. everyone knows the most TV entertainment programmes is about how low can we get to catch maximum eyeballs.
There must be a financial logic to this that I don't quite get--finally why do we contribute to making a wold which has a surfeit of what is not really worthwhile, and a shortage of what is?
