Amit Tyagi: From Saas Bahu Aur Betiyaan to Bigg Boss and Now Lock Upp


So, it’s quite common these days for a TV Star to find its way to Bollywood. But it’s not every day that a Film and Television covering Journalist finds himself becoming a TV Star. Yes, that’s the story of Amit Tyaagi. It won’t be wrong to call him the only Journalist covering Entertainment Beat to have become part of reality shows so much so that he’s now a reality show star in the making!
While too many adjectives could be added to Amit Tyaagi, the person known for speaking his mind, the storehouse of all news and gossip of the TV and Film industry, the person who’s outspoken, extrovert and lives his life only to fulfill all his dream, but if there’s one big phrase synonym to Amit Tyaagi, it’s Saas Bahu aur Betiyaan! Amit has found his way into millions of homes with the only show based programmed content covering news and updates of Hindi Television world on the sabse tez news channel Aaj Tak.
And on the back of this success, he also found his way into reality tv shows starting with Bigg Boss! “My journey in Bigg Boss has been totally unexpected!” says Amit. He recalls, “I used to cover Bigg Boss as a journalist and the team knew me and knew the strong hold I had on the show format. It was during Bigg Boss 13 that they liked the way I asked questions to the contestants and then they decided to call me for Bigg Boss 14 where I went in the house with Farah Khan. Together we shot an entire episode and this year for Bigg Boss 15 I entered the show with Salman Khan and the response from everyone was fantastic!”
Amit further added, “A good journalist is a storehouse of authentic information and in the times of all the social media noise where everyone is a journalist or has an opinion, it’s very important to provide authentic information. I guess that’s why the Bigg Boss team would rely on me and thought of calling me for not just one but three seasons. After appearing on the show, I started sensing a difference, at the risk of sounding pompous, almost started feeling like a celebrity because generally we just hang around celebrities and take interviews or talk to them but when you get this kind of recognition you do know your own value goes up. Post Bigg Boss I also got called for Alt Balaji and MX Player’s Lock Upp where one of my videos with Kangana Ranaut also got viral. I think it’s my direct approach that people like so much!”

Amit who’s the entertainment editor of Aaj Tak today has had a long arduous journey to the top. While he has been in journalism for 2 decades, it all started for him from ANI, the news wire agency. He started on a junior level and eventually moved to Zoom and Times Now finding his way to Aaj Tak shortly after. It’s been 15 years for him in Aaj Tak now and within the entertainment space, Amit has covered everything right from films to tv shows to OTT series, music to awards night, fashion nights so on and so forth.

He also won many awards as a journalist for his show Saas Bahu aur Betiyaan and he feels extremely grateful for the same, “The true reward for all the hard work are these awards and recognition. I feel truly humbled and happy by this and things catapulted to another level after Bigg Boss. I have been called from small towns and big cities across the country, be it Mumbai, Delhi, Jammu, Patna to judge the talent shows and I have enjoyed the process so far!” says Amit Tyagi.

Ruthvik Reddy: Vicious trolling by insensitive people can disturb the peace of mind and confidence of actors

 Social media has a lot of positive as well as negative sides, says Ruthvik Reddy. The actor, who will be making his acting debut with National Award winner Arun Shankar’s new single titled Hum, says that while social media is a great way for actors to connect with their fans and vice versa, it also provides a platform for people to troll public figures. “There is no doubt that social media has revolutionized everyone’s lives in this era. Social media has wiped the distance between a star and fan. Fans can have direct access to the star that they like. Not just follow actors, people can have direct interactions with them as well. But social media also gives the power to people, who follow actors, to say negative things about them in public. Vicious trolling by insensitive people has become an extremely common thing today and has the power to disturb the peace of mind and the confidence of actors,” he says.  He adds, “Everything has its positives and negatives, whic...
