India can’t get enough of Rakhi Sawant. After the swayamwar where she found herself a fiancee, she is now going to simulate being a parent on a reality show. Along with her man, Elesh Parujanwala, who was named by a Canadian Bong after his favourite fish, she is taking part in a show<\/a> in which five celeb couples will spend time bringing up borrowed children on television. Check out this snippet from the news item:<\/p>\n

\n

Rakhi and the audience may be used to her infamous low-cut blouses, but obviously, the bachchas aren’t. And, as a source present at the launch of the programme told us, one baby couldn’t help but explore the territory! Embarrassing? You bet!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

If the kid becomes a techie when he grows up, he’ll at least have prior work experience in silicon valley. And think of the TRPs of the show now, as millions of Indians tune in to live vicariously through a baby’s exploration.<\/p>\n

*<\/p>\n

Ribald jokes apart, this is one reality show concept that I find appalling. Are the parents of these kids actually renting<\/i> their babies out? Other reality shows feature adults being placed in situations of their own volition—but babies? How could someone do that?<\/p>\n

Parenthood is a massive responsibility, and it’s irresponsible to become a parent if you can’t live up to that. I see too many parents around me who are simply not ready for that role, who have unfairly screwed with their kids by bringing them on the planet. This is a fine illustration of that.<\/p>\n
