How Rana Daggubati might defeat Nandamuri Balakrishna

ADVERTISEMENT

The Rana Daggubati Show, the Amazon Prime Video celebrity talk show, is all set to premiere on November 23. Besides SS Rajamouli, the show will also feature Ram Gopal Varma, Dulquer Salmaan, Naga Chaitanya, Siddhu Jonnalagadda, Sree Leela, and Natural Star Nani as guests.

On the face of it, the show will be better than Aha's Unstoppable. An ideal celebrity talk show is unscripted (or minimally scripted), professional, and unpredictable. While Unstoppable has balanced serious and light-hearted, it has failed at having a good sense of humour. Also, the talk show has been reduced to a platform for movie promotions.

Amazon Prime Video's talk show could display Rana's interviewing skills. He has previously hosted a couple of award shows, which implies that he is good at making even scripted talk feel natural. On the other hand, Balakrishna's scripted talk show looks extremely staged and unnatural, with even the guests speaking out from a script. The low-end set design and the paid artists laughing out loud has been an awkward feature of Unstoppable.

The Rana Daggubati Show is expected to be superior to Balakrishna's Unstoppable on multiple counts.
