Can you imagine "Kaun Banega Crorepati" without mega star Amitabh Bachchan? Or "Indian Idol" without composer Anu Malik? In a celebrity-obsessed nation, even reality shows that aim to make a star out of the common man are driven by Bollywood faces.

"Whatever happens, reality shows will always need some face value - whether in the form of celebrity contestants, judges or hosts," Namit Sharma, head of Wizcraft Television, told IANS. Not even a single ongoing reality show - "Zor Ka Jhatka", "Chak Dhoom Dhoom - Team Challenge", "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa", "Dance India Dance Doubles" and "Maa Exchange" among others - is without a celebrity.
