Three anchors of an MTV reality show had their faces blackened by activists of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and were chased out of Pune for using foul language on national television on Friday.

Rodies is a very famous series on MTV and has a good fan following . True that that language used is something which needs concern but so only these people deserve such behavior?

using abusive words in front of such young generation audience makes them to use these abusive words even though they don't know the meaning of those words. so i think blacken faces of MTV anchors is a lesson for those who provokes violence and abusiveness.

No, There are movies like Omkara, Dabang and Dum MAro Dum where foul language is used and still no action has been taken against the big actors then why should they do it against MTV VJs.. The punishment should be equal for all or they should not do what they did.

actually in Bollywood or in any documentary there is always a message for the society its a dramatic version of what is happening in the society but in roadies these guys teach the youngsters to fight and ditch each other, its too shameful girls have also joined the shameful culture also in roadies especially "Raghu"these peoples use very abusive and aggressive language i don't no why or i thinks its just for TRP .

Yes now a days they have gone overboard with this kind of abusive,bad behavior N arrogant & take ride on the gullible participants. They need such treatment so that it is deterrent to other channels to behave & take care of participants by providing at-least clean drinking water to the participants. Blackening of face not sufficient these people deserve much more.

There is a hell lot of difference between language of Dabang and the one used in rodies and big boss. How can one support that language? I fail to understand. However, ABVP's method is wrong. They can say that what will somebody do on getting abused...but then they should understand that its not a personal matter and "abuse for abuse" is not a sustainable solution at least in public domain.

Yes, they deserve this!!!.

In fact, this should have been done long back.

The foul language is going from bad to worse.

Just to attract TRPs., they are going to any extent.


The day will not be far when they will start the actual sexual act just to get the TRPs.

Yes, by all means, as who gave them authority to use such type of language. May be they got some harsh treatement , but it is a lesson for all who always go for such foul type of language. Thanks for referral, Kavitha.

Kavitha i understand your anguish and its meaning better than anybody else.Bollywood is a money spinner and above all actors and actress are not subject to any crime and even if they do they have their own laws and any hue and cry won't do much.

Kavitha I agree with your statement but the people in movies are stars and not available in public. Things would have been different if they speak such foul language in public. the time is changing fast.

A two or three decade back there was a film in English, picturing a TV Anchor who slipped the tongue & went against the San Di Ego people. I forgotten its name. Sorry for that.

This episode brings me back the very same story. The movie ends with a solution of the whole San Di Ego people run after him later to save them all, in total.

Hope the same thing will happen here too. This, clearly ,shows that we are running many a decades behind others' in many a things.

India is full of such people viz actors, polititions etc. They are degrading our culture in one way or the other. If we are not against such degrading activities then we are morally corrupt. Are we ready to face the consequences by allowing such activities and pollute our culture and morals. This is very dangerous for the coming generation and they will remember us as cowards and morally corrupt. Morals have put one foot already in the grave we must save them, otherwise, they will left us nude.

We need to do more to infuse moral values and character building. Of late, we are witnessing eroding cultural ethos, and this is not the way for correction!

No. This is Talibanization. Who are they to say what I should wear or do or not wear or not do or talk or not talk and so on.

DO THEY TAKE CARE OF ME? DO THEY PAY MY BILLS? When I was a kid my dad and mom took care of me, paid for all my expenses and did all that is required for my development. They have a right to state what is good for me and what is bad for me. That to only till I am dependent. The moment I become independent I run my life. PERIOD.

If Bajarang Dal or VHP doesnt like something, let them not watch it or hear it. They have no right to stop others from watching or doing things. It is my right if it is allowed by the law.

Those who support them are supporting Talibanization of life.

It's a shame that even today, such events occur so openly in India. A big shame for a country that portrays itself as free. If their is right to free speech, then it's equal for everybody. For you, for me and thus for TV shows too. They are fundamental rights and cannot be morally policed by any group.

Who have given the right to our corrupt and tainted politicians to ruin us with scams like CWG,2G. Besides if this is right you should also agree with what the shiv-sena and bajrang dal does on every valentine and what they did to women in a couple of years ago in a mangalore pub.

A big NO why don't they blacken the faces of our corrupt politicians who are creating problems for us,robbing us by our money only which we give in taxes besides the show is not a saas-bahu saga or a mythological soap that they will use sugary words,besides kids of know are more smarter and intelligent than we were in our age.You cant give instructions to them to them what to watch and what not to.And above all aren't there enough foul languages in our day today life that somebody had to take inspiration from TV for that. Do we even bother to think in what language we are talking in front of our kids. Don't remember who said child is the father of the man.

Vigilante justice as portrayed in movies is the root cause of all this blackening faces et al.Inherently there is no violence attached to mere blackening of faces,however there is a question of indignity involved and cannot be allowed to go on.it's sheer bullying and such bullying by mobs is the order of the day off late especially by Sangh parivar outfits and usually the targets are who cannot defend themselves in numbers.
