Peer acceptance is something that is extremely
important for adolescents and even for young adults. While different people
have different ways of finding approval from their friends or similarly aged
siblings, a lot of people choose to find reassurance from reality shows on television. There are shows that are youth oriented and
are endorsed greatly by the young viewers. With the help of such TV shows, the
youth of the present time is able to find a connection with their own lives.
The increased popularity of reality television is mainly because of the young
viewers and their love for the rush that it provides.
Since there is a huge demand for reality TV among the
modern Indian youth, television service providers are coming up with different kinds
of reality shows. One such show out of a range of extremely popular shows is MTV Xtreme. This is a show that tests
the strength and endurance of contestants by giving them different tasks. It
also encourages team activities where multiple teams are put against one
another. The show gives an adrenaline rush to those that participate in it as
well as to those that watch the show.
While it is true that a lot of the reality shows for
the youth revolve around tasks and physical competitions, there is still a
range of shows that provide the youth with varied content. A large section of
viewers choose to watch shows that are art oriented and provide a platform for
showcasing talent as well as providing pure entertainment. With shows such as MTV Bollyland, viewers
are able to get their dose of musical entertainment in the form of reality television.
It also becomes a platform for music lovers and artists to find a footing in
the talent industry.
Reality festivals and shows such as MTV Bollyland encourage
the youth to identify their core strengths and work towards honing their
skills. While there are numerous alternative career paths for youngsters in the
modern times, they need the correct direction to be motivated. A lot of times
reality TV can be the best solution for those that need a respite from the
monotony of life. While it is true that peer pressure is something that needs
to be controlled, you cannot really remove it completely from a young mind.
Channelizing the pressure in the correct direction, through entertainment, can
be a simple solution to this complex problem.
