The truth behind Reality Shows ...or is it ?

5 min ago, a friend and I were discussing reality shows - and he suddenly said that Ms. Palak of MTV Roadies fame, was actually an actress ...who had appeared in Singh is King !

Curiosity got the better of me, and I went to youtube to check this out -

Indeed - he was right !

and then of course google threw up the following result -

Funnier reading was the so called great Mr Raghu's statement that it did not make any difference to him or the show...

Isn't that a little weird ?? Shouldn't the participant have been checked for any previous acting experience or appearance on TV ? Why was this conveniently overlooked ?

Perhaps, reality TV is not so real after all - sorry Dezadd !
