What did I miss this New Year Eve

Every one in my office missed something or other this new year eve. Someone missed his maid and had to cook the food. Some missed the drinks and others missed a grand party. Different people missed different things. But what we all together at office missed was a office party. Though had a small party on 1st January, but 31st Eve party is something different and more fun.

While talking about our new year eve, what most of us miss is a Good New Year TV show. All my colleagues had the same view about the television shows that we watch now on new year eve. The shows that use to come on DD national were worth watching and spending a good new year eve with family. I miss Jaspal Bhati 's show on the new year eve. In fact now what the TV got is the events on big stage having dance shows for new year. All that you see on television is one or the other star is dancing with 20-30 background dancers and there's a couple of anchors (host) cracking a bit of jokes in their conversation. I don't think such shows have any comparison with the shows that we watched in 90s. One single person had such a charisma that he use to hold millions of people sit on their seat and had a brilliant talent to make every single person laugh. And the comedy was so... hilarious that you can't stop laughing. Well its something not only me but many people miss.

The shows that we loved watching on New Year Eve, had good mix of entertainment, fun, culture, values and all that we loved. The Skits with a moral a lesson to learn, such things are something missing in today's shows. Now the theme is dance and a grand event making a lot of money through passes and tickets. Earlier the shows were not huge, the live audience was limited in number. The emphasis was on mass audience watching television rather than the live audience. The earlier shows had cultural values, they use to show some classical, cultural, folk dances along with some skits and plays about the general awareness. There was a complete package of entertainment.

I don't know why but now the TV shows are not close to heart. People watch one show now and they forget about it in a weeks time. I missed my new year eve this time. Had no plans with the friends as we all decided to party in RMT (Rajai Mongfali & TV) with family. Office party was a small event on 1st of January. So had not much to do on the eve except RMT. Had Rajai and mongfali at home but TV was something very boring. There was nothing worth watching on TV. Same dance shows with a crowded audience. So what I did on the eve? I had a good time sleeping on 31st Dec 2009 night and I just hope you people had an eve, better than mine. So what did you missed this new year eve? Just share your moments through the comments and have a fantastic year 2010.

Wish you all a very happy and prosperous New Year.
