Let's be honest, all these entertaining TV shows and daily soaps are incomplete without TV reality shows. They just add a lot of entertaining factors and realistic elements in our daily watching and give some monotonous break from daily soaps.

However, its the host of the show that plays an instrumental role in making it more entertaining and popular from their gags in order to keep the audience hooked to the show. Their presentation, star power, comic timing, and anchoring skills often make or break a show. And our Indian television is blessed with some of the talented hosts who are truly the heart of these shows.
