That’s quite a common practice in most of reality shows since the drama of the sets is not as staged as one might imagine. The new update coming from Pakistan’s reality show Tamasha has stirred controversy because the participants Mahi Baloch and Hamna Naeem have been accused of assaulting another participant Anam and as a result of this several criticisms and concerns have flooded the show.
The Incident: A Clash of Personalities
It is said that the rankling event in question transpired during one of the heated scenes that the program is famous for. As per the information, Mahi Baloch and Hamna Naeem scolded Anam and quarreled with her, causing a fight. The event took place before the cameras and not only the contestants, but the audience was left in shock by the happenings.
Public Reaction: Anger and worry
Many viewers of the show also felt compelled to proclaim themselves through the social networks outraged with the event. Some people were outraged with Mahi and Hamna for the fight, saying that it is wrong to beat someone, no matter the reason. The show’s viewers became angered regarding the situations that unfolded during #TamashaAttack and demanded severe action against those contestants.
On the other hand, some people in the defense of Mahi and Hamna justified their actions on the fact that they acted under very much pressure when in the reality show and the fact that they might have been provoked to make the move. But this view was quickly drowned by voices of outrage that trailed the event.
The Show’s Response: Fragile: A Dilemma for Producers
Here the producers of Tamasha stand at a juncture, concerning how to further deal with the situation. It is important to remember that reality shows rely on drama and conflict, but there is a line between entertainment and indecent. The management of the show has come out to confirm the incident and has vowed to deal with the incident after launching an investigation.
As much as Tamasha is a show with heated competition and sometimes emotional outbursts this particular incident has brought to light how much reality show producers are liable for the wellbeing of the contestants. The audiences are now demanding clear lines that are drawn so that no such future incidences happen in the future.
Reality TV: An ambivalent type
It is important to pay attention to the fact that Mahi Baloch, Hamna Naeem, and Anam’s case demonstrates a key problem with reality TV show participation and contestants’ psychological states. The pressure from the setting, being under the spotlight and the desire to perform to the best to remain relevant in the competition may at times compel a person to go to an extent they otherwise wouldn’t.
Due to the popularity of reality shows, occurrences such as this one put people in mind about the reality of real-life issues that may occur due to happenings in television dramas. It also brings out the need for ethical parameters in the creation of such episodes.
