You are right. ARR was long long back on Simi garewal's show and I loved that interview. It was great to see AR in simi's show and there was a pleasant feel all throughout the show. Specially with AR playing the keyboard, singing along and stuff.
Lift kara De is good but I do agree that there is too much masala in the show. It is entertaining but then, mixing poverty on a talk show and publisizing charity is not the way charity should be dealt with. AR has already done so much of charity in his own quite ways but you can't help this one publicised because of the show format. Plus, I felt, that kind of money should be distributed to some more poor families around rather than just giving it to one family. Hopefully they spend the money in right ways and respect the big hearts giving it out.
