Have you ever wondered, how the children of the rich people live? Do they have everything served on a platter?  Have you wondered how they would survive if their Daddy Ka Paisa (Father’s money) is taken from them? Would they be able to toil to survive? Why will they give up their luxurious life style?What can be the big demand of such brats to agree to switch? To find answers to such questions you can catch the reality show  Big Switch 3 – Life without Daddy Ka Paisa which is being aired on UTV Bindaas from 25 December 2011 every Sunday at 7:00 pm.

Big Switch

What is it all about?

It features eight super rich youngsters who enjoy their lives on their father’s money-Daddy Ka Paisa . Their day starts late, they just chill out, shop a lot and just party!. Running a shopping bill of Rs 55,000 on a single day is nothing for them! Everything about them screams: excessive, self-centered.  They lack consideration for other people (including their parents), have temper tantrums, want to have their own way.  The theme of Big Switch 3 – Life without Daddy Ka Paisa is have these brats survive for 20 days without their father’s money.  For promos of the show you can check out
Youtube, Promo-1 and Promo-2.
Their parents have sent them to the show to learn the value of money and time. But these kids also have a condition. If they win the show then their parents would have to meet their big demand which as you guess runs into lakh of rupees.
This show is hosted by Natasha Suri and is judged by Rohit Shetty, director of Golmaal series and Singham.  He has been part of Comedy Circus aired on Sony.
He is called as Godfather of the show. There are just two rules in the show – Rohit Shetty makes the rules and contestants follow them. As he says “Ma kasam mein aapko kodi kodi ka bhav sikha kar hi rahoonga” (I shall make you learn the value of money). You can also catch Natasha Suri and director Rohit Shetty discuss the trials and tribulations of being a part of Big Switch 3- Life Without Daddy Ka Paisa on screenindia

Aren’t we raising brats at home?

When I watched the TV show I was happy to see these brats living without their Daddy’s money. Ab roti daal ka bhav pata chalege? (Now they will know the cost of Food etc).  I clapped whenever Rohit says “Maa Kasama..mein kodi ka bhav sikh kar rahonga” These kids need to learn the lesson. While working on the post I happened to visit a mall with my children (Bangalore Central). What I noticed was these children, pre-teens,teens are all dressed up in the brands like Reebok, Nike, Liliput.  Some of the teens had latest mobiles, gadgets like PlayStation and were loaded with shopping bags. I saw a child around 5 -6 years throwing tantrum at the checkout counter. His mother tried various reasons -they have similar toy at home, it’s useless buying it, money doesn’t grow on trees, but that kid just refused to listen.   Kids and Money Conversations and Kids and money slide show at business today shows how kids from ages 2+ take money for granted considering parents as Any Time Money. It makes me wonder  “What does money mean?”.

Who will be the winner of Big Switch 3?

Note: Anjusha was eliminated on 29th Jan, Heena and Rohit Bajaj on 5th Feb. No elimination on 12th Feb. Sahil was eliminated on 19th Feb.
