Natakame Ulakam
(Amrita TV, Saturdays, 22.30)



Natakame Ulakam:Amrita TV, Saturdays, 22.30.

It is a wry and sarcastic commentary on the political scenario of the State. The programme, which completed 200 episodes, consists of a wittily cynical monologue narrated by the show's scriptwriter and anchor, T.K. Santosh Kumar. He introduces the issues, comments on it and sometimes adds a tongue-in-cheek epilogue. This is interspersed with clippings of the major political actors involved and sound bytes that are of relevance to the issue.

Quick cuts and repeated replays of certain appropriate ‘bits of action,' along with caricatures of people caught up in the controversy, provides hilarious conformation or amusing contradictions to what has been stated in the monologue.

Searching for the droll angle in every problem, Santosh uses the vehicle of deprecating humour to drive home his point. He exploits every shade of satire from exaggeration to sarcasm and though the programme occasionally slips into of scorn and derision, the monologue sticks to mild, ironic humour most of the time.
