What happened behind the scenes of “Khandvaneh” Nowruz? / Rambod’s request to Rashidpour – Mehr News Agency | Iran and world’s news
Mehr News Agency – Art Group – Atieh Moazen: For many people, behind-the-scenes programs such as “Khandwaneh” are probably curious, especially if they want to know what is behind all this happening and the competition and the excitement of the conversations that take place in the studio, and is it so interesting and spectacular behind the scenes ?! Of course, part of the emotional atmosphere of this unanimous program goes back to the stand-up comedies of “Be Laughable” or “Qati Bazi” competitions and its competitive atmosphere, and this time I go behind the scenes of one of the “Laughing” Nowruz programs in a non-competitive atmosphere.
At five o’clock I arrive at the Khondavaneh studio in the location of Milad Tower, the promised time and the guest of the program is supposed to come to the studio at the same time. From the beginning, I realize that the guest, who is very special, has not arrived yet, so I make my first attempt to talk to the key and main figure of the program, the young Rambod. But he has to start recording in a few minutes.
The spectators put on their funny masks and are ready to sit in the studio. I am currently being led to a guest room with an LCD that can be used to keep track of everything in the studio. Only if they do not have “hash” moments or the sound is cut off, you do not hear a sound and you may be curious about what they say, what they laugh at and even the reason for some sudden events. Questions and ambiguities that come to me many times, and of course sometimes the volume of the studio is so loud that if it is cut off from here, the sound will enter the room from the studio itself. Especially in the moments when everyone in the audience is accompanied by a Rambod voice.
Young Rambod is introducing the program with an accent I do not know. The sound can be heard from inside the TV in the living room, several people are sitting inside and watching what is happening inside the studio from here.
Rambod repeats over and over again, checking some words with a person in a local dress. Now everyone in the studio is saying, “Let’s go.”
They clean the floor of the studio to get the original recording, counts Rambod, and then says in the same local language:
Rambod’s excitement is greater than ever in the studio, and if he runs down the aisle ten times into the studio, he will probably enter for the last time with the same enthusiasm. The audience, however, is not as excited as he expects, interrupts the recording and asks them to be cheerful, emphasizing to his own agents that “do not be fooled.”
This emphasis on the well-being of the people, of course, is not just linguistic, and perhaps few people know that “Khandwaneh” is one of the few TV programs that before the recording begins, one person only works with the audience inside the stage for about half an hour or more and greets them Teaching up to timely reactions teaches. Some may ask why these people, who interact and laugh so much in “Khandwaneh” program, are silent and cold on stage in other TV programs? While some of these people come in front of the camera for the first time with “hilarious” and their only difference is the presence of a trainer to teach reactions in front of the camera.
Amin Aslani is in charge of his job and says about the challenge of accompanying the audience with the program: In the special Nowruz programs that we have ethnicities, it has been a bit difficult to teach these ethnic languages.
The mood of the people in these years has become somewhat closer to lethargy
“People have become somewhat closer to lethargy in recent years, and some, for the first time, are facing cameras, studios and recordings, and need to be trained for a longer period of time,” he said.
Aslani said about the more interactive approach of this season that young Rambod has with the audience and plays with them or pulls them in the middle of the studio: “Young Rambod wanted this season to be more interactive because the audience inside the house gets more energy. People like this approach and are interested in being asked questions and participating. “Sometimes, even when they are not asked, they criticize us and even ask us what they are asked or what games they play, and sometimes they are challenged to sit in a chair with more participation.”
While talking to the radio, he is asked if he should return to the studio immediately, and he concludes by saying, “In some shows, all the participation is just a touch, and most of it is in the dark, but we did not do that, and the same light that “It’s on the performer, it’s on the audience, and the amount of participation they have in the family program is not in any other program.”
They want to start recording again. Amin Aslani returns to the stage. Someone is thirsty and wants water and Rambod says “Amin, coordinate so that they can drink water after this plateau”.
It is 6 o’clock and they play again in pairs, the music is fast and happy. Rambod enters excitedly with the crowd clapping, but apparently a mistake is made. Rambod warns about it. As much as he is smiling, happy and entertaining in front of the TV camera, he is also talkative and laughing behind the scenes; Of course, he has a determination that he wants every mistake and event to be settled quickly. At the same time, he is very bored and sometimes the spectator asks a question, stands for a few minutes and talks. It is not clear what they are saying because the sound is not heard. I see all this on the living room TV. Now they are ready to record again. Someone with a picture of a native costume comes on stage and starts singing. A happy song with a pulsating and moving atmosphere that evokes elements of Indian music. He is a Baloch singer and the piece he performs is with the same Baloch pieces.
His performance is like a lively and energetic song, and when Rambod says at the end of his piece, “Sir, number one, beautiful music, beautiful behavior,” you feel that he has the same reaction that you, as an external audience, would like to give to the singer.
Now you understand that the theme of tonight’s program is completely related to the atmosphere of the Baluchis. Both Eid-ul-Fitr and Baluch singer بد Rambod’s commentary on his regular introductions, which has now aired more than 800 episodes of “Khandwaneh” with the introduction of the program, himself and Nasim Network, says: “Find out who the person running the program is and what their plans are.”
He also has fun with the Baloch singer, and the singer, referring to how Rambod communicates with the Baloch language, says: “Usually musicians are smart, but you are smarter when you learn these words easily…”
Tonight’s guest is Reza Rashidpour, but he has not yet come to the studio and the agents of the other sections are recording. In the meantime, I can talk to the actors behind the scenes.
Saeedeh Amirsaei has been the assistant of the young Rambod in directing “Khandvaneh” all these years, who explains about the various items of this Nowruz program: We never worked on a repetitive conductor and tried to design different events. Of course, this variety also has its difficulties and varies depending on the guests and events that are coordinated for Nowruz 90 minutes. However, there are hilarious teams from documentarians to studio and graphic groups and all professions, and thank God these groups have coordinated over the years.
He explained why they did not have a more special design for Nowruz this year: The special event that we went to this year for Nowruz was local and folk music, in which we dealt with 13 ethnicities and dialects in 13 episodes. This year, unlike last year, when the themes were designed, we kept the hilarious classic conductor and added more variety to the items.
There were so many competition-oriented programs that we factorized the competition
Amir Saei further explained: Until two weeks before the end of the year, we were supposed to launch the big league “Qati Bazi”, which was a combination of different competitions in the program, but the number of TV-based competition programs was so large that we also factorized the competition.
Amir Saei’s explanation When it ends, the sound of the music of “Happy Birthday” arrives and it turns out that his birthday is one of the factors and part of the group is celebrating his birthday in one of the rooms of the shed.
Almost everyone behind the scenes has masks. Sometimes they take off their masks when they enter their small glass rooms, and the only person who does not wear a mask in this studio is Rambod himself. Almost everyone has given up their three doses of the vaccine.
It is almost 7 pm and everyone is waiting for the special guest tonight, Reza Rashidpour, who rarely participates in TV programs, and it can even be said that he has not appeared in any other program in these few years except “Durhami” and “Khandvaneh”.
When the recording stops, I can finally see the young Rambod. I have a mask. First we say hello and then when I take off the mask, our greetings get warmer.
The conversation, which is emphasized due to the lack of time and busyness of Rambod in the busy days of recording Nowruz programs, is short and ends in 10 minutes. I also try to finish the conversation in one to ten minutes, but I can’t! Young Rambod is a good interviewer and, unlike many, does not give brief and telegraphic answers, and you prefer to reveal a lot of questions after a few years behind the scenes and seize this opportunity. You will read the result of this detailed conversation in Mehr News Agency soon.
During the conversation, it is reported that Rashidpour has finally arrived at the studio and has gone straight to the make-up room to start recording sooner. For this reason, they are preparing the young Rambod to go to the studio to talk to Rashidpour.
The guest room is busier than ever and everyone is sitting to watch the conversation between Rambod and Rashidpour. Mr. Khan, who has been present in many of the Nowruz talks, is the main absentee in this conversation, and Mr. Mohammad Bahrani, Mr. Khan’s voice actor, left the program location today before my presence. A powerful voice actor and artist to whom the main and important part of Mr. Khan’s characterization and creativity goes, and the vacancy of talking to him is definitely one of the regrets of this behind the scenes.
It is now less than eight o’clock at night when Rambod is in the studio and they are starting the main recording. He is always introducing his guests to the audience, from performances, acting, programming to piloting, and he says, and with each word that he utters in a more glorious and glorious way, he delights his audience more who has been a guest, and finally Reza Rashidpour enters the scene from the same corridor.
He is dressed in black, and at the very beginning of the conversation, after greetings and “hilarious” greetings, he says that the only reason for his black dress is that he is overweight, and everyone laughs.
Part of the conversation goes back to the performance of Reza Rashidpour, and Rambod asks him to make his social programs in which he is first class. An audience member in the studio can also ask the presenter a question, and his first question is whether Rashidpour will make “Hala Khorshid” again or not.
Rambod himself continues the same question more analytically and says that maybe other figures can implement entertainment programs, but the social program is in Rashidpour’s specialty and he wants Rashidpour to return to this field very seriously.
The interesting part of this conversation is the competition and the competition between the presenter and the guest, and everyone is eager to follow to see who wins the competition?
Both Rashidpour and Rambod are good at being showmen, and parts of this competition go back to the same feature. The competition is as attractive to Rambod as ever, and somewhere in the middle of this competitive game lies in the middle of the stage. Some people are surprised by this move, but regardless of all the judgments, he does whatever he likes to make the show better and more energetic.
It is 21:40 and they are still recording, and although I would like to interview Rashidpour for a few sentences, I have to leave the location because it is not yet clear when the recording will end and Rashidpour and young Rambod are still talking.
