Loudest and most lauded news show is Arnab's noisehour, err.. I mean newshour. Not only does he top the TRP rankings, he tops the decibel chart too. I am not sure whether he tops the chart or he topples it.
One thing that is sure, he is very popular. People love to view his show day after day. Even the K-serials can learn few things. How to retain interest daily in-spite the never ending episodes.
What makes him so different then?
- No nonsense
Straight forward questions. In his words "direct questions". "10 direct questions to UPA", "5 questions that govt must answer" something on this line. Though his questions are direct, usually not lesser than half a dozen.
- Adds emotions
He is good at this. He adds emotions in his questions and also while delivering them. He tries to connect with the middle class. Usually he is angry, unless the topic is Pakistan. When it comes to Pakistan, revenge and rashtraprema gets mixed into his ever angry mood, thereby resulting in a deadly combination. Though his Pakistani panelists usually leave the discussion mid-air, they promptly return for the next discussion to face Arnab's missiles again.
- Blasts the usual political rhetoric
The interrupting "No, no no no ....." usually ends the political blame game of the defending panelist. Many times it irks the panelists but much to the viewers delight. We all love others to get blasted while we have cold tea. Sometimes we even love Arnab getting blasted for a change.
- Well researched
Those papers he holds while conducting the discussion, I guess are filled with panelist-wise questionnaire. To have so many questions day after day he needs a good research team. A research team which comes up with never ending list of questions, which gains the form of well directed West Indian bouncers through Arnab's mouth.
- Audience feel relieved when he attacks the cause
When he criticizes the cause of the day or rather grills viewers are relived. The issue may be that of rising onion prices or sexist remarks of the kind dented & painted, Arnab takes the side of common man. During this process, while the aam admi gets relief, Arnab Goswami gets TRP.
- Credible compared to his counterparts
Rajdeep & Barkha don't enjoy the credibility he enjoys. He neither has the cash for vote scam fame nor does he have the entry through Radia gates.
Though you might have changed the channel many times, when the noise on his show reached the unbearable level, you might have also came back to check whether everyone is okay? Whether Arnab has all his panelists under control? Whether Arnab is under control?
