Youth icon

Reality is the current flavour on television. Zee TV has started a unique reality show titled "Business Baazigar" with the tagline — "Idea lao... paise le jao." People are asked to come up with innovative ideas and present them as business proposals. The channel will decide who has the most innovative idea and fund the proposed project. So after hunting for talented singers, dancers, models and actors, channels are now hunting for people with good business ideas. Meanwhile, `Pepsi-MTV Youth Icon 2006' looks interesting, even as Indian captain Rahul Dravid and the Hindi actor Priyanka Chopra have invited the youth to vote for their icon. The six names on the list are — M. S. Dhoni (Sports), President A.P.J.Abdul Kalam (Science), Vijay Mallya (Business), Navjot Singh Siddhu (Television), John Abraham (Films) and Abhijeet Sawant (Music).
