Resul Pookutty cries foul over Aamirs Satyamev Jayate

Even though Aamir Khan's 'Satyamev Jayate' (SMJ) has gone off air now, it still continues to make news. This time, not for the appropriate reason though. On the 'firing end' this time, is none rather than the Oscar-winning sound specialist Resul Pookutty, who has hit out on the show for being "doctored."

Talking concerning the show, Resul said that SMJ was a fully doctored show and that a lot of sound post-production work was done at the show. He also added that the show was treated identical to a movie with regards to how sound (mixing) is handled in a film, in order that it is easy to form of emotionally blackmail audiences. He said that SMJ was treated within the same fashion.

Resul, who last made news with Slumdog Millionaire, is back again as part of Tim Sebastian's much-awaited debate series 'The Outsider', that is rumored to be at the lines of SMJ. But, Resul puts his foot all the way down to claim that they're doing no such manipulation and that his show can be at par with international programming.

Wonder what Aamir has to mention to that!
