Vivek Mishra amused by televsion producers
turning down his Naked Dating Reality show concept
Delhi based actor & model; also the only Naked
Yoga Trainer in India, Vivek Mishra created quite a stir with his wild card
entry in television’s popular reality show Bigg Boss soon after which he
received numerous offers for other reality shows but nothing that excited the
witty & quirky yoga master.
Delhi was abuzz with news of Vivek Mishra getting
offered to play a host in VH1’s most talked about untitled Naked Dating show
that the yoga master had to turn down due to certain disagreements with the
production house.
Albeit Vivek pretty much liked the idea to bring a
similar concept & present it before the Indian audiences with his own Naked
Dating show but he knew what was coming, “I did approach few people who I could
trust with the concept of my Naked Dating show, as much as they seemed pretty
excited about the entire new thing, they didn’t really want to go ahead only
fearing how the audiences would react to it & how would they be able to
keep up with the network standards.”
Vivek giving a little sneak peek into the whole
concept, “Each episode will feature a man and a woman as they each date two
different -- and naked -- suitors. The series will explore the art of romance
-- free of preconceived notions, stereotypes and, yes, clothing. At the end of
every hour-long episode, the two romance-seekers analyze what they've learned
from their dates -- and themselves -- before deciding whether to move forward
with their potential love matches.”
On being turned down by almost every production
house to go ahead with this concept, “I am aware that India is not ready for
something like this, but I am also aware that we do have a large number of
people who watch channels & shows post midnight & we all know the
content of these shows. Obviously what the viewers will see will be blurred.
There have been enough shows on heartbreaks, crimes other than the usual daily
soap, don’t we want something different?”
The naked yoga guru still hunts to collaborate
with a production house that will help him sail through with this new concept
that will definitely shake the roots of Indian Reality TV.
