Adgully Exclusive | Survivor India is not just a reality show but a quest of mankind for ages: Star's Nitin Vaidya

Star Plus's first ever non-fiction reality show; Survivor India, the Indian adaptation of the international series, is all set to excite its audience. Stranded on an abandoned tropical island of Philippines without the basic minimum amenities!

Survivor India seems to be an eventual game of physical and mental endurance. It's well encapsulated tagline-"Jo Tikega, Itihaas Likhega'/ Kya Jee Paoge?' is a testimony, that only the fittest, the grittiest and the ruthless will survive and will be the ultimate winner of this show.

Vaidya believes that the content is the king! If your content is compelling it will obviously affect your business strategy. Your content should be really innovative and persuasive.

Munisha Khatwani, a bubbly and chubby lady who has been seen reading tarot cards will be seen in her all new avatar. She says, "This is the first time I am being a part of such a show, such a unique show format. So getting this show has been one of the key high points of my life. It has been really amazing being part of this show. I feel lucky to be the part of the show. When I was told about the show I didn't expected it to be that much tough but still I would say it was a thrilling experience. Everything was real and raw. Nothing was made up or fake. Nothing was scripted."

Priyanka Bassi says, "It has been a fabulous experience being a part of this show. Such formats are really rare. Yes it was full of difficulties, pain and struggle. We performed extremely difficult tasks there and finally we all survived and are back in 1 piece. The show has been a hit at international level so we are expecting that will create a mark in India as well."

Rohit Narang, a well known Businessman who is also a contestant of the show, said, "It was one- in- a-lifetime experience. I knew it will be tough as it was really opposite to my existing life style. It is easy to say but going through it is altogether a different story. It was lot more difficult experience for me. "I didn't eat food for one day', saying this is easy but actually not eating is really difficult; then dealing with people you don't know, dealing with lack of sleep, dealing with stupid issues was really hard. It was basically man dealing with nature. I would suggest everyone should experience this once at least."

Rajesh Khera said, "It was an awesome but rough experience. Personally I got to make new friends. Life was really hard-hitting in "Survivor India'. It's going to be so nostalgic that whenever next "Survivor' happens we'll be so jealous and envious. We were cribbing about the basic necessities but it was like living at the edge wherein you need to push and discover yourself. It was all about pushing your limits and patience and also about respecting things which we have always taken for granted. We were really lucky to be a part of this show."

Star Plus which has been on a roll in 2011 has redefined the "Reality show format' with such a robust show and fascinating characters. It is totally an unparalleled non-fiction format and keeps the brand promise of Rishta Wahi Soch Nayi that reflects in its content. | By Aanchal Kohli [aanchal(at)adgully.com]
