Two new reality shows on Sony TV from this weekend
|
If you are a tele-show addict, then this Saturday evening has something new in store for you. Sony TV has come up with two new shows, K for Kishore and Chaalbaaz to entertain you on weekends. While the first one
is a music reality show, Chaalbaaz is the Indian version of the American reality show, Prankstar from the house of Endemol India. K for Kishore has already gone on air from this past Friday and will have an episode this Saturday too, at 9 p.m. Chaalbaaz will be aired every Saturday at 10 p.m.
A la Kishore da
Albert Almeida, Executive Vice President and Business Head, Sony Entertainment Television, says, “K for Kishore will run for ten weeks with 12 contestants, who will compete to become the closest voice to that of Kishore Kumar.” He says the show will be judged by singer-music director Bappi Lahiri and singer Sudesh Bhonsle, popularly known as the closest voice to Kishore da in playback singing so far. Lahiri and Kishore Kumar together have given Bollywood many hits, including Namak Halal, Chalte Chalte and Sharabi. Talking about the show, Lahiri, says, “It will not be like Indian Idol or any other reality based music programme. Its selection will be based on the total marks given by the judges as well as the audience present in the studio.” Unlike other reality shows, here, the judges and the studio audience will decide the ultimate fate of the contestants. The process of elimination will start from the third episode itself.
