Mumbai, December 20: Skepticism towards reality shows is no “raaz” in this country. Every other such show has had its fair share of brickbats and bouquets and the latest ‘Raaz Pichle Janam Ke’ on NDTV Imagine seems to be no exception to it.
‘Raaz…’ is a reality show in which ‘Past Life Regression’ (PLR) is used to overcome the phobias and problems faced by participants in the present life. Ever since the show went on air last week, the only question crossing audience’s mind is “Is it rigged?”.
PLR is a technique that uses hypnosis to recover what most practitioners believe are memories of past lives or incarnations.
Therefore, on one hand, there is the show’s therapist allaying fears of all such doubting Thomases, while on the other hand is an awareness organisation expressing concern over such experiments.
“It is not possible for participants to fake about their past births.
