Having TRP doesn’t make anything right – Mukesh Khanna

In an interview with Zoom, Mukesh Khanna said that today’s content creators should understand that they impact children and youth. We influence the children and youth of this country. I myself had refused ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ also, because I did not feel the need to go there. I created my show because I believe that interviews should also be done with respect, there is no need to stoop down. Just having crores of TRP does not make anything right, if something is wrong then one must have the courage to say it is wrong.

asked questions to people also

Mukesh further said that we should also ask questions to the audience as to why they are watching such content. This is a kind of ‘commercial drama’ and many times people forget their responsibilities to earn money. Some people are taking the youth on the wrong path by giving place to wrong language and thinking on their platforms. You are spoiling the youth for money and you have no shame of it.

Mukesh’s answer regarding Samay Raina

Along with this, he said about Samay Raina’s comment on ‘Shaktimaan’, ‘This Mr. Raina does not understand that no child died from ‘Shaktimaan’. Some people had spread wrong things, but the truth has come out in the court. ‘Shaktimaan’ ran for seven years and its popularity is proof of this. It is not right to spread such things without any reason. Entertainment cannot be separated from responsibility because the words of artists have a deep impact on the society.

How did the matter start?

Let us tell you that it started when a big controversy had arisen regarding an objectionable question in Samay Raina’s show. In that episode, people had also expressed displeasure over a statement related to Ranveer Allahabadia. The matter escalated so much that FIRs were registered at many places and debates broke out on social media. Amidst this entire controversy, Raina took a dig by mentioning Mukesh Khanna and ‘Shaktimaan’ in his stand-up, after which a new controversy has come to light.
