Aap Ki Adalat, Aap Ka Faisla was a superb show of the early 90's where well known faces of different spheres came to share a bit of what they were doing in their professions, their aims and their ideals.It was not exactly about their personal lives but more about how they handled themselves in society.

The entrances of the celebrities were funny.The person was invited to enter the courtroom when a guard standing on the corridor which takes to the courtroom announces the moment in a loud calling.

The concept was incredibly original and creative.The set was a court room with all of the elements that make a real courtroom.A judge, the jury, the court clerk, the court reporter, the public and the interviewed celebrity was the person in charge.A minor difference was that the person being interviewed sat on a grand poltroon instead of standing in the box because of being a celebrity.Hilarious.

After the interrogations finished a final judgment was made and the celebrity ought to accept the charge.It was truly was an innovative idea that eased the approach to criticize a celebrity which would be almost impossible of doing in conventional ways.

The most memorable interviews where the ones of Shahrukh Khan, Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Lalu Prasad.Back then Shahrukh was a newcomer in the industry and a rising star.His confident style and witty humor were shown in this show.People had some laughs during his interview because of his quick responses that characterize his nature.In the end the jury and judge told him that he was a good person at heart but he must understand that although it is nice to be important, it was more important to be nice.SRK laughed and accepted the sentence.

Thank you and Good bye!
