Vulgarity of Morning Shows

The growing trend of morning shows on different TV channels is poisoning the roots of our identity. Being a Muslim, it is our religious duty to start our day by praising God. But early morning, every host on different TV channels begins their programs by music, laughing, giggling, dancing, jumping and other foolish stuff. All these acts increase absurdity among viewers and people often try to adopt every action of TV-stars in their own life style.

Morning show hosts have introduced so many cheap things in their programs which are now being practiced broadly in our society. The top listed Pakistani hosts like Shaista Wahidi, Nida Yasir, Fahad Khan and many other delightfully celebrate such events and include vulgarities in their show as a part of entertainment that somewhere distract individual’s mind.

These days, crispy topics of morning shows are wedding season, bridal makeups and beauty contest. The so called trend of marriages gets audiences bored. Recently, Shaista Wahidi host of “Utho Jago Pakistan” make wedding week, of already married couple. Every morning female host used to wear bridal dresses that divert mind of house-ladies from their responsibilities and give priority to its fashion and beauty.

Naive women feel zealous in such stupid activities that swiftly move them in to the fantasy world. A man who hardly meets with their daily expenses of life, how they fulfill the worthless requests of their wives? This is a stage of audience, where host should talk as the voice of people and think about the wishes of every class.

The stage shows of Omer Shareef make people laugh; by including some lesson in it. If we compare PTV programs with private channels, we feel a huge difference between them. There is severe lack of programs that entertain in a very well mannered way. Old shows like, 50-50 show, Moin Akhter comedy show and “Tehria Moin Akhter” were very good which did not spoil our custom and values. Likewise, program of Tariq Aziz was very helpful for students that provided a lot of information and knowledge which was enjoyed by all audiences.

The sets need motivational personalities, who are truly sincere to their fields; so that viewer would listen to them carefully. The controversial figures like Maya khan, Veena Malik should not be invited as they often perform such disorganized and different things that now public has stopped taking them seriously. Those who cannot resolve issues of their own life ought not to advise others.  Among all of them, we need a celebrity that give guidance not only about Islam and Islamic teachings but also describe general perspective of life.

Q: 2 what is your educational and professional background?

A: I am a columnist and writer as well. I have been writing column on social and culture issue, as a writer I write short stories in Sindhi and poems in Urdu respectively. I also associated with teaching as soon I completed Master in Philosophy; I started teaching in Philosophy University. I also did Master in Physics and my thesis was on “Globalization of Jihad”. Beside all these, I am researcher as well and I do research since eighth years on several subjects. After this, one of my researches was on Phakhtunkhuwa Society, I studied, “what is the perception of pakhtoons on Talibanization”?  Next research, which I thought important, is about “Research on Islamic Culture”. For this purpose, I learnt Arabic language. I just examine religious TV channels that how they portraying Islam? And how Talibanization and extremism have been increased?  Are these channels contributing Islam positively? Have their speeches been made to support?  What is the concept of humanity for them or How they taken Non-Muslims? All these question are included in my research. Then, I target my research on media. Now I back to Sindh and here I am doing my PhD from Karachi University in philosophy; my subject is “Nationalism”. In investigative journalism, currently, I am doing research on karokari and I am doing this work with the help of supportive Police. Beside I will do research on “transgender” in Hyderabad and also on “Urdu Language” that we mixed or replaced some words of Urdu in to English during conversation. Further, I also did short courses on Persian and German language. This is my total introduction about educational and professional background.

Q: 3 what are you doing currently?

A: Actually I am a consultant. This is different kind of job; simply I can say that I am “Head of Project Evaluator”. I do not work consistently because of my PhD, therefore, the short term consul ties is much easier for me. I just connected to INGO’s, the International Organization, where I am working with an “International Firm” and the organization always higher me whenever work relates to Pakistan which is highly paid. The job of INGO’s is to discover lot of things like they launched so many projects on which they work; they also funded local organization as well as other INGO’s too. I have got 2 to 3 assignments in one year and the main work is to evaluate and research on that assignments.

Q: 4 Do you have any eminent idea that enthusiast you to complete it in upcoming five years?

A: There are two tasks which I like most; one is my thesis work and other belongs to my literal life.  I read and write regarding to literary life and I have my own stories and poetries on it. This is very delicate and interesting subject for me. But second one is quite tough, like I doing work on “Nationalism” and I searching, how Sindh can live peacefully with diverse ethnic group in Pakistani Nationalism? And as soon as possible I will finish my thesis work in July 2015.  In my PhD thesis, I will try to find out the outcome, how the cosmopolitan Sindh can follow the same path?  Previously, I have read many books of histories and I just conclude one thing about parties, belongs to different ethnic groups that they need some motivational speech and guidance over this thing through which these people probably comes closest to each other.

Q: 5 what is your philosophy of teaching?

A: My philosophy about teaching is that it should be very interactive. Teaching is a hypothetical skills and it means “art of teaching”. So, it is only possible by seriously involvement of teacher and student as well. Understanding between student and teacher will create a good environment in class; eventually the student will give proper attention to its subject, over and above, they will attend class sincerely and sincerely.

Q: 6 which performance make teacher good?

A: Importantly, the teacher needs to make student easy in class, certainly this will enhance the process of learning. Some teacher has generated such environment in class that student remain repealed to ask any question. So teacher should give them opportunities to share their ideas and opinions in their mind. Student ought to ask a question to its teacher without any hesitation. Mostly students showed an unserious attitude to teacher, during lecture. If I am teacher and I have to give lecture suppose on media ethics so first I give 2 to 3 articles on it. Next day, I allow my students to ask question where they feel complication and discus it in class to clear their confusion.  This method will absolutely increase interest of student towards subject and things always remain in their mind.

Q: 8 what is your greatest strength?

A: My greatest strength is all my trust and creative power. I have lot of writing work and yet I am working on dialogue of philosophy which is like a short novel so I feel that it is also greatest strong point. Further, I am planning that in future I introduce philosophy as compulsory subject. Student of any field must aware from this subject because if they will learn pure philosophy, histomology and Meta physics so their work definitely different from others. Likewise, it is very beneficial for every media person in their professional life. Philosophy is a subject that helps out media person or journalist to easily understand politics while it tells different ideas and rules that person can easily get the story from depth. And this is what which makes person different from other journalist. So I think philosophy is also a thing that increased liveliness in me and my work as well.

Q: 9 Describe a typical period of your student life and how you handled the situation?

A: I thought that there was a lack of career counseling opportunities when I was in college so being a student I get bored n those days. But when I reached in universities there is a permanent situation for every girl. The only challenges and problems that tolerate females specially relates to mind-set of male. Therefore, girls have needed to handle the situation very smartly. At this stage it is necessary for female to understand the attitude and deeds of guy, if someone gives you a special favor and attention so you haven’t take it and for all, you have to be very diplomatic.

Q: 10How you make your place in practical field?

A: It is not a difficult task if you are hard worker. It is very simple and easy if you are knowledgeable, hardworking person and sincere with your work. Now, it is up to you that what do you choose for yourself and how much labor you have? It is very important to enter in practical life.

Q: 11 which thing entered and been busy you in different line of work?

A: There were dynamic activities which entered me in this field.  I was quite young when I came in to politics, that time my was different and interesting. I was only 13 years old when my brother took me in a protest which was on “KALABHAG DAM”. And my interest began to increase from here but my brother told me that you would teach women after reading the books then he engaged ne in to education. My brother gave me different literature books and these books have busy me in my mission which helped me very much in intellectual development. But I joined one party at young age and being biased I left it in 18 years old, after this I did not join any party but still interested in politics.

Q: 12 How could you manage a lot of things very efficiently?

A: I can easily perform my every task which I decided to do in a day because I m very punctual of my time and I have been very active about my work.
