TOP 5 KANNADA REALITY SHOWS

POSITION 5 - NAANE RAJKUMARI - KASTURI

Naane Rajkumari was a show that entered Kasturi channel when the entire TRP of the channel was down and the channel wanted to have a complete makeover. Among the very few shows which were liked by the people when it took a makeover, Naane Rajkumari was one. Ashitha is doing an extremely great job as its anchor though the viewers feel she is yelling at times. The rounds seem to be good unless there are non-dancer contestants in the show as many rounds are dance-oriented. The segment of this show which caught the eyes of most people is the show-down, 'Inti Nimmavalu'. This show-down segment is loved by most viewers which has inspired the channel to donate one time slot completely for this in the form of 'Mouna Maatadaga'. For all the funny rounds and the very serious farewell 'Inti Nimmavalu', this show is ranked 5th in this list.

POSITION 4 - UDAYA SINGER - UDAYA

Many years after the end of their first musical show which was a huge hit in the history of Kannada Television Antyakshari, Udaya channel has once again stepped out to create another musical hit, Udaya Singer. The main aim of this show is the create a platform for the tiny tots to exhibit their singing talent. The judges of this show are music maestro Vijay Prakash and the bubbly actress Aindrita Ray. Set apart from other singing competitions, this show has a versatile singer, Gurukiran as a trainee for the children. Moreover, every week, various people from Kannada Cinema come and encourage the children. The anchor of this show, Chitra is also doing an extremely good job. Yet the channel is still being questioned about the choice of Aindrita as a judge as she has no musical background. Yet, her words of appreciation fills zeal and confidence in the children. For such a wonderful show being show up on Udaya after a series of flop reality shows, this show is ranked 4th in this list.

POSITION 3 - SUVARNA SUPER JODI - SUVARNA

Suvarna Super Jodi is a unique game show in which lead pairs of the fiction shows in Suvarna come together as contestants. They perform a variety of tasks given to them in their quest to claim the title 'Suvarna Super Jodi'. This is an entirely new concept put forth by Suvarna Channel. The 'atte' and 'mava' of this show, Mrs. and Mr. Sahi Kahi Chandru are doing as excellent job as judges. This show is doing well in the TRP Ratings as well. The anchors of this show, though they always try to be in unison, fail at times which is the ONLY seen drawback of this show. Else, this is a perfect concept to innovate with and hence this show is ranked 3rd in this list for its excellent concept, games and entertainment.

POSITION 2 - KANNADADA KOTYADIPATHI - SUVARNA

Kannadada Kotyadhipati is a show meant for the common men. Kannadada Kotyadhipati is the biggest ever reality show on Kannada Television offering the biggest prize money of Rs.1,00,00,000/- (Rupees One Crore) in the Kannada GEC space. The format and the rules for this edition of Kannadada Kotyadhipati will be sameas the first edition of KBC. Kannadada Kotyadhipati is anchored by the face of Kannada cinema - youth icon and power star- Puneeth Rajkumar who comes from the first family of Kannada cinema. Though the second season of this show had a great start, the show started to look down after a few episodes. The game did not appear to be as entertaining as the first season. The main cause for this may be the lack of fun-filled dialogues. It was reportedly said that Guruprasad is the man behind all the dialogues of Puneeth in the first season. His absence from the show in this season may be the reason for the lack of powerful dialogues. Yet, after a few weeks, the show picked up its TRP and hence it became a huge hit in Kannada Television again. Viewers are still not satisfied with the show as they have set a much better standard to themselves last year. The celebrity episodes which have already featured Malashree, Prabhudeva, Upendra, Radhika Pandit, Ramya, Jaggesh, Priyamani and many more actors have continued to help the show gain more TRP once in a while. In spite of the all the short comings, this show is ranked 2nd in this list.
