kbc has degraded by pratiksha dutta on Feb 28, 2007 shahrukh khan d so called "king' of bollywood has degraded KBC much..n continues 2 do so wid his sickly boring jokes..dats not entertainment..ppl its foolish 2 say dont compare srk wid Bachhan..srk tried 2 step in2 bachhn's shoes..comparisos r bound 2 take place..Sadly he dznt match up2 Bachhan's standards..Its not his fault..He just dznt have dat calibre..in any case not every1 can b AMITABH BACCHAN..so ppl shudnt expect much frm srk..Kbc has been reduced 2 mockery.. v miss u Mr Bachhan..really miss u.. :(
All the fans standing outside 'Pratiksha' waiting for his darshan did not translate into money when Amitabh was down and wanted it most. When Amitji lay in financial ruin, The magic was lost. The money was gone. Fans deserted him in droves. Amitabh was alone. (Mein aur meri tanhaayi)
Just when all looked lost, in walked a starry eyed Amar Singh and introduced hope, and the Ambani connection into Amitji's life (and those large superstitious rings on his fingers.) The success of KBC that followed, rekindled his celebrity, fan following, and brought endorsements, movie offers - and wealth - back into Big B's life.
It may be difficult for us fans to comprehend but most of Amitji's assets today are essentially post KBC (and post ABCL bankruptcy). All the block busters - including Deewar and Sholay - from his golden years, and nostalgic dewy eyed fans like us, dont translate to money on his balance sheet. We are mere Goodwill! ("Oof tumhare oosul, tumhare adarsh. Kis kaam ke hai tumhare is oosul jo ek waqt ki roti tak nahi bana sakta?")
The hard knocks of life taught him that we fans are fickle. Here today, gone tomorrow. It is money, that keeps his - much like our - life going.
Amitji strode the world of cinema churning blockbusters for the best of 4 long decades! He left us spell bound all these years making us feel like Alice in wonderland. Every time we went to the theaters and looked at the silver screen he gave us one magical performance after another. He rarely failed us. He gifted us some of life's greatest moments. And some of our fondest memories.
At 64, and with time running out, Amitabh realizes that his best years are behind him. He has more years lived, than left.
All good things in life come to an end. However hard he tries, he may never be able to produce another Deewar or Sholay. Not even one last time. Not even for us.
All the great dialogue writers, sriptwriters and directors of his hey days are no longer around. The hey days themselves have long gone by. Times have changed. Tastes have changed. People have changed. The industry itself had changed. Even the reigning Shahenshah of Bollywood has changed!!
All good things in life come to an end. Amitabh has accepted this reality.
Only one thing remains the same - Our expectations of him.
Perhaps it is time we changed too.
Lets enjoy his talents, voice, songs, his mere presence, the happiness of seeing him on TV and films while we still can. In addition to being his, and our, passion - his acting also happens to be his livelihood. Lets not begrudge him that by holding his every role against our stringent moral expectations.
Lets celebrate and enjoy Amitabh's talents while we still can.
I SAW 3 SHOWS AND THEY ALL WERE PATHETIC. KING"-sized ego bubble IS busted !!! SRK THERE WAS NO NEED TO SAY ON TV ALL THE KIDS WANT TO BECOME MESSAGE PERSON BECAUSE YOU GIVE MESSAGE ON TV- YOU KEEP MOVING YOUR CHAIR.

Prejudice... has no medicine !!
Just because you love AB.. doesn't means u hate SRK. But this is what actually is happening. Your love for AB... results into hate for SRK .. and that hate has somewhere made you highly prejudice about him.
And please don't talk about ratings. These are just the loosely prepared statastics, which any body can mold and interpretate in the way they like it.
He has accepted a show (which no doubt AB had presented in a very very brilliant way). But then if SRK would have presented in the style same as of AB.. you would have told that he is a copy cat. Just imagine, if these show was originally presented by SRk in the same style, in which he is presenting it now.. don't you think it would be equally popular as it was at the time of AB.
Frnd, it's not just the host who has made this show popular, it is the format of the show, which was very new at the time of its first telecast. For the first time in the Indian history, some one was getting the chance to win 1 crore ruppee just by giving correct answers to certain questions.
Yes... ppl like Govinda and Anupam Kher tried to host similar shows but failed. but if they can't compete AB.. they can't even compete SRK.
Think again... Yes this person is doing best... what can be expected with this show at this time. If AB had agreed to present this show for this 3rd time.. keeping his same style.. the show would have gone too down in the ratings.

SRK IS intelligent enough. Still, there're which goes against SRK presentation in KBC when the contestant leaves the HOT SEAT you call him " 1) SAY Shahrukh Mujhe Gale Laga Lo, which is against Indian Ethics & Culture. 2) the very words used when the contestant replies in uncertainty about the Particulat Answer to the Particular Question that " Kachcha Pacca-Pacca, which sounds very Childish. To Say, A Hero of Indian Cinema is never expected to do childish sitting amongst the public. Here, Shahrukh perforces the public to compare himself with the Ex-host The BIG B Amitabh. MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE NAME IS QUITE INTELLIGENT TOO FOR SRK :)
SRK THERE WAS NO NEED TO SAY ON TV ALL THE KIDS WANT TO BECOME MESSAGE PERSON BECAUSE YOU GIVE MESSAGE ON TV- YOU KEEP MOVING YOUR CHAIR.
YOU ARE SO CUTE AND DASHING- YOU ARE REACTING DEFENSIVE-AND IF PEOPLE WROTE SOME COMMENTS ABOUT YOU TAKE IT LIKE CONSTRICTIVE CRITICISM AND DO NOT RUB YOUR MISTAKES ON TV- YOU ARE HARMING YOUR SELF MORE.

SRK IS FAILURE DIDN'T YOU READ THE RATINGS. SRK HAS MADE KBC 3 VERY CHEAP SHOW. READ THE COMMENTS VULGAR LANGUAGE HE USED. SRK IS VERY INSECURE HE BECOMES SARCASTIC AT TIMES AND THEN SAY A LOT OF NICE WORDS TO MAKE THE CONTENDER FORGET THE HUMILIATION SRK. KBC 3 IS A SHOWPIECE THAT COMES JUST FORCIBLY. SRK LOOKS FAKE AND TRYING TOO HARD. SRK YOU LACKED CONFIDENCE AND YOU ARE GOOD IN FAKING IT. KBC IS NOT ABOUT ACTING IT IS ABOUT GOOD HOST. SRK IS NOT SINCERE WHEN HE HUGS PEOPLE IT COMES OUT AS OVERACTING. DO NOT LOOK GENUINE. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SRK STAR POWER. HE DOESN'T MAKE GOOD HOST KBC IS AN INTELLIGENT GAME SHOW WITH SRK DIGNITY, PRESENCE & PRESTIGE IS MISSING. SRK IF YOU TALK LESS, STOP OVERACTING YOU CAN MAKE THE SHOW SUCCESSFUL.
You all intelligent people seems to be coming to this message board to prove that AB was better SRK. If so, why u guys keep on proving it repeatedly?? Are u afraid of SRK?? IF NOT JUST MIND UR BUSINESSES AND KEEP SRK & AB OUT OF THIS... GROWUP
NEED A BETTER HOST-NOT CLOWN SRK IS AWFUL ALL THE ATTENTION IS ON SRK 90% CAMERA IS ON SRK NOT ON PARTICIPANTS AND QUIZ SHOW.
IT IS LIKE WATCHING RAHUL, RAJ WORKING UNDER PRESSURE WITH NO SWITZERLAND SONGS. HE DOES MAKE WEIRD FACES-DOESN'T SUIT HIM ALSO, HIS RAP SONG-HE IS NO HRITHIK-COPYING DANCE STEPS BOY HE LOOKED AWFUL IN RAP SONG, COPYING AB.KBC3 HAS BECOME DISASTER BECAUSE OF SRK.
I TOLD EARLIER AND TELLING YOU NOW SRK HAS MADE KBC 3 VERY CHEAP SHOW. ALL THAT HYPE AND MONEY STILL DIDN'T HELP THE SHOW. KBC-3 NEEDS A GREAT HOST. ALL THE DRAMATIC COMEDY BY SRK AND MADE KBC-3 SHOW SO PATHETIC. GET A HOST WITH SOME DIGNITY AND PRESTIGE IN THE SHOW... A PRESENCE...CLASS
SRK AND VULGUR LANGUAGE HIS CHEAP ACTIONS OH BOY KBC= KAUN BANEGAYA CHIMPO WAS RIGHT

TO: HUMAN
YOU ARE RIGHT YOUR SRK IS ALSO VERY POOR AND MADE THE SHOW VERY POOR WITH HIS POOR CHEAP TRICKS, POOR LANGUAGE, POOR BODY LANGUAGE, POOR MOCKING AND DROOLING.
THE MORE YOU WATCH KBC THE MORE YOU HATE SRK AND THIS FLOP SHOW One thing SRK is good at is how to boasts about himself and calls himself the KING. He has SELF-PROCLAIMED to be the King and at every opportunity calls himself the Best. How insecure can one get ??? And how arrogant and egoistic can one get ? I can understand if the public or his fans proclaims him, but he has artificially hyped himself up and self-proclaimed to be the king.
