If you thought that film dialogues would by now have mothers invoking Arnab Goswami instead of Gabbar Singh to scare their kids, well, think again.
Or, better still, watch the video below.
These kids have watched him, and they have spoken. Even those, difficult as it may be to believe, who hadn't heard of him before.
The country, nay, the nation indeed seems to be well represented in the clearly divergent views on display. What is also very clear is that love him or hate him, you just cannot ignore India's star TV anchor.
And, even though, inter alia:
* "He looks so innocent like a nerd, but he's not"
* "And he doesn't want to look like kind and stuff. He wants to look like a hound!"
*"He can be a football coach. He shouts out for, like, getting the ball"
*"Like he's the boss of the show and you all are like his slaves"
*"He calls them on the show and he does that"
* "It's like you call someone for dinner and then ask them to pay for it"
The verdict is clear: "He's fun to watch!"
