After the launch of Rajdeep Sardesai's CNN-IBN, new news waves are all set to hit the tube. Times Now, the channel from the Times Group and Reuters stable, is all set to launch and in style.
The channel has already started its show reel since Monday, and the on-air promos depict a slew of shows that will be hosted by an array of noted journalists and celebs. Here is a sneak peek of some of the special shows and their anchors that will be the mainstay of this soon to be launched channel.
KUNAL VIJAYKAR: Funny man Kunal will be hosting a show called, The Foodie. The promos show him being badgered by frying pans and the man himself looks quite hassled. This will be an interesting show to be hooked on to and a different kind of a show to be part of a news channel's line-up. It will certainly be a delight to watch Kunal's antics on a lazy weekend afternoon! (supposing it's in the afternoon slot) It will see Kunal playing host to a number of celebs and rustling up meals at the same time.
LILLETE DUBEY: She will host By Invitation Only, a weekend show that will have her in an interesting avatar. The actress will let us into the world of the rich, powerful and the famous. This is her first foray into anchoring.
GITANJALI KIRLOSKAR: She is heading the world's second largest ad agency Q:uadrant and now the lady has added another feather to her cap. Geetanjali will be a hosting another weekend show, Life's Like That, a curious mix of situations in life.
KELLY DORJI: This actor was last seen in the Amitabh Bachchan starrer, Ek Ajnabee. This Bhutanese ramp model and actor will be hosting Sports Unplugged, an on the edge sports magazine.
NAOMI DATTA: Naomi has been in the business for more than half a decade and her claim to fame is the expose on the people meter list leak of 2001. She was producer and Principal Correspondent with CNBC TV18 before she joined Times Now.
Other shows which will be interesting to watch are -- Line of Duty, Brand Equity (the promo of this show has an uncanny resemblance to the Indica V2 ad) and
All About Her among others.
