GRAPHIC: KULDIP DHIMAN
 says Naveen S. Garewal

Money shows like Kaun Banega Crorepati and Sawaal Dus Crore Ka have found a good viewership among India’s middle class. These serials feed middle class aspirations of becoming rich quickly. A large number of people also draw vicarious pleasure from watching one of their ilk become an instant millionaire. At the same time, however, the value of these programmes is being questioned by critics.
