Rahul Vaidya Slams Singing Reality Shows, Calls Them 'Scripted': 'Ek Pattern Hai…'
Speaking with Instant Bollywood, Rahul mentioned that reality shows were unscripted during his time on Indian Idol, 20 years ago. Specifically discussing singing reality shows, he said that these shows have now become 'scripted' and formulaic. 'Har reality show ka ek pattern hai… ek love angle hoga, kisi ki mummy kisi ke ghar pe kaam karti hogi, kisi ke papa auto chalate hoge, (Every show has a set pattern… there will be a love angle, someone's mother will be shown working at someone's house, and someone's father will be an auto-rickshaw driver)," he said.
The singer further added that even if these stories aren't true, the contestants are asked to say them. However, this wasn't the case during his time. 'Pehle aisa nahi hota tha. Pehle agar mujhe pata hota ki 'main gareeb hoon' bolne se vote milenge, toh hum toh fir bata dete. (It wasn't like this before. If I had known back then that saying 'I'm poor' would get me votes, I would have shared my sad story). But back then, it was real. I can't say that about today's singing reality shows," said Rahul.
Rahul Vaidya was one of the contestants on Indian Idol Season 1, and he finished as the second runner-up on the show. Abhijeet Sawant emerged as the winner. Rahul is known for his tracks like 'Chaap Tilak,' 'Madhanya,' 'Baaton Ko Teri,' and 'Meri Zindagi,' to name a few, and became a popular household name with his stint on the reality show Bigg Boss 14 where he was crowned as the 1st runner-up. He was also seen in Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 11.

Aamir Khan reveals he got drunk on 60th birthday, has no memories: ‘Bohot jaldi chadh gayi mujhe…'
On March 14 this year, Bollywood's Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan celebrated his 60th birthday. Ahead of the special occasion on a pre-birthday bash with the media, he introduced the world to his new girlfriend Gauri Spratt, who he has been dating for over a year now. Well, in a new interview, the actor has now spilled the beans about his birthday party. For the uninitiated, Aamir only smokes a pipe and has quit drinking now. However, on his 60th birthday, the superstar was encouraged by his friends to take a drink, and what happened next will blow your mind. A post shared by Viral Bhayani (@viralbhayani) In a recent chat with Mashable, Aamir Khan revealed, 'Yaar bohot interesting hua. Ira, Reena, everyone organised a birthday party for me on my 60th. They invited all my loved ones. It was a memorable day, like all the memories will stay with me. I don't drink much these, I've cut down alcohol consumption to almost zero. But that day, because it was my 60th birthday, everybody insisted that I have a drink. Toh maine kaha theek hai. Aur kyunki mujhe aadat nahi hai, bohot jaldi chadh gayi mujhe aur hua kya, main jab… I'm an extreme person. We started at around 7 pm, and by 9 pm, I knew that I was flying.' A post shared by Instant Bollywood (@instantbollywood) Aamir went on to share, '60th birthday hai, sab log encourage bhi kar rahe the toh hum log achhe mood mein the. Hum log bolte hain naa yaar bada memorable day tha, woh memorable tha lekin mujhe memory koi… I have no memory of that day (laughs).' The actor revealed that there are videos and photos of his birthday party, where everybody said nice things about the birthday boy. But Aamir doesn't remember a thing because he suffered a 'clean blackout'. Last year in an interview, Aamir revealed that he only smokes a pipe now and has quit drinking. He took the decision to go sober after his 'Devdas period' post the actor's divorce from his first wife Reena Datta in 2002. For a year and a half, Aamir shared that he went from a teetotaler to drinking a bottle of alcohol every day. Today, Aamir and Reena are friends and are also working together, while their children Ira and Junaid are all grown up.
