Veteran
film
actor
Om
Puri,
who
is
best
remembered
for
his
stints
in
Mr
Yogi,
Tamas
and
Bharat
Ek
Khoj
among
others,
has
now
turned
narrator
for
a
television
show
Chhal
-
Sheh
Aur
Maat,
which
is
aired
on
Colors
Channel.
The
baddie
of
Bollywood
rates
TV
shows
as
very
poor
and
feels
that
they
are
too
glossy
and
focus
only
on
clothing
and
jewellery.
In
an
interview
to
PTI,
Om
Puri
said,
"I
feel
the
shows
are
of
very
poor
standard.
Nothing
really
is
significant
(on
TV)..
it
is
a
wonderful
medium.
And
it
reaches
in
every
home
and
I
hope
it
is
used
much
more
positively.
There
is
very
poor
humor,
no
class..humor
should
be
like
which
also
creates
certain
kind
of
awareness,
and
also
not
hitting
below
the
belt."
But
there
are
TV
shows
that
talk
about
issues
like
dowry,
domestic
violence,
child
marriage
and
others.
Ask
him
about
it,
and
Puri
says,
"They
all
look
like
calendars,
they
are
all
so
glossy.
There
are
so
far
away
from
life.
It
is
like
a
parade
for
clothes....garments,
jewelry."
Chhal
-
Sheh
Aur
Maat
is
a
tale
of
a
girl
from
Delhi,
called
Neha,
who
gets
married
to
her
prince
charming
Rishi.
Everything
was
perfect
in
their
marriage
until
one
morning
when
she
wakes
up,
not
with
Rishi,
but
Kabir,
who
claims
to
be
her
husband,
a
complete
stranger.
Om
Puri
said,
"I
would
be
narrating...I
am
a
story
teller
for
this
show.
I
feel
it
is
a
sensible
thriller
story.
It
is
clean
entertainment." He
will
be
seen
every
Saturday
in
the
serial,
wherein
he
will
sum
up
the
high
points
of
the
show
which
unfolded
during
the
course
of
that
particular
week.
Interestingly,
Puri
has
not
seen
any
of
the
episodes.
"No,
I
have
not
seen
the
show.
I
would
go
by
script,
the
director
will
explain
me
and
accordingly
I
will
deliver.
But
definitely
I
would
see
the
show
for
references,"
he
said.
