Political satire remains at the heart of Shekhar Suman’s show
Suman, who recently returned to television with “Shekhar Tonite,” a contemporary remake of his popular “Movers & Shakers,” put political satire at the heart of the show. Apart from celebrity interviews and current affairs clips, a highlight was the opening monologue, in which Suman gave her opinion on the most talked about issues of the day. In the latest episode, he turned his attention to Wangchuck’s hunger strike, accusing the government of being silent on the issue.He said, “Sonam Wanghcuk ji Kai dino se Jantar Mantar par Shiksha Mantri Dharmendra Pradhan ke istife ke liye anshan par baitha hain. Main hairaan hoon yeh dekh sa ki koi hairaan kyun baitha hai, Vidyarthiyon ke bhavishya ke liye anshan par baitha hai, shiksha ke charmaraate” dhaanche ko sambhaalne ke liye anshan par baitha hai, aur vyavastha chain se leti hui hai. Woh vyavastha jo na Sirf goongi, behri aur samvedanheen hai, balki tang dil, sang dil aur bedil hai. Thake Hue urjaheen shareer mein bhale hi shakti na ho, lekin desh ke laakhon yuvaon ki woh taakat hai. Aur gaur se dekha jaaye, to hum sab zinda laashon mein woh ek akela jeevit hai. Lord hairaan hoon yeh dekh ke ki koi hairaan kyun nahin? ”.
Shekhar Suman also raised this question earlier
This is not the first time Suman has commented on Wangchuk’s protest. When the hunger strike began about two weeks ago, he began sarcastically weighing in on the issue and questioning the government’s response. He once said, “Haali hi mein Sonam Wanghcuk saab sarkar ke khilaaf bhookh hartaal par baith gaye, jismein unhone Dharmendra Pradhan ke istife ki maang uthai hai. Lord sabse pehle un logon se sawaal karna chahta hoon jo Bolte the ki loktantra khatre mein hai. Kahaan hai khatre mein? Aapko sarkar Twitter with trending karne de rahi hai, bhookh hartaal with baithne de rahi hai, aandolan karne de rahi hai, jail jaane de rahi hai, aur kya chahiye? Bachche ki jaan loge kya? Itni saari suvidhayein milne ke baad bhi log chahte hain ki sarkar ab unki baat bhi sune? Loktantra ka matlab sunna hi to hota hai, maanna kab se ho gaya? Wanghcuk ji bhi bade ajeeb hain. Itni si baat par istifa maang rahe hain. Aisa kya ho gaya? Kuch lakh bachchon ka bhavishya hi to daav par laga. Uska aadha samay shapath lene mein jaayega, aur aadha istifa dene mein. To vikas kahaan se aayega, bataiye? Kuch bhi mat poochhiye. Shut up. “
