    This festive season, add a zing to romance with ‘Date Knight’

    MUMBAI: With festivities and the holiday season round the corner, NDTV Good Times has come up with a new show ‘Dark Knight’ that has a unique concept designed to provide a new take on married life.

    ‘Date Knight’ is a show where a husband takes it upon himself to rekindle the romance in their married life and treat his wife like a queen.

    The show, premiered on 18 October 2014 On NDTV Good Times, airs every Saturday at 7:00 pm and repeats the following Sunday at 5:30 pm and Tuesday at 1:30 pm.

    Directed by Gyan Sahay and Agastya Jain, the series is about showing your wife how much you love, value and appreciate her. The participating husband plans a fun-filled day for his wife while he dons the chef’s hat to cook a three- course meal from her favorite cuisine. After spending the day away from each other, the couple meets over a date.

    Talking about this new concept, Jain said, “The show started with the thought of a role reversal. The husband plans a day in the kitchen while the wife enjoys a day out- a perfect break from her monotonous schedule. The idea itself is romantic and we had a great time shooting with the participating couples. We hope the show sets an example and inspires husbands across the country.”

    The show sponsors include Crown Plaza, Faber and Black Decker.

    ‘Date Knight’ promises to prove that men don’t just listen but also pay attention to detail. It is a show that celebrates love in the most unique way.

    It’s time to break the monotony in your marriage and relive those moments of love and passion with your spouse only with ‘Date Knight’.

    Shagun TV launches new game-show Jodi No 1

    MUMBAI: Earlier this year, Shagun TV, country’s first 24-hour wedding entertainment channel, was launched with a promise to have shows that were not only unique but also exciting to all matrimonial-related matters, whether it’s astrology, shopping or honeymoon travel planning.

     

    Trying to stay true to its theme, the channel is launching its first game show Jodi No 1.

    The game-show will try to explain the importance of marital relationship through each of its round. It will witness the participation of four married couples who will be tested on the grounds of compatibility. And the couple winning the majority of rounds will be the winner of the episode and will move closer to the trophy of Jodi No 1.

    The sequence of rounds will try to see how well are the couples aware of each others likes and dislikes, how quickly they understand each others non verbal quos, how well is their understanding about rituals and customs of marriage, how much romance is instilled in their relationship and how much fun factor exists between them.

     

    “It is a niche channel and will cater to only a limited audience. So it is hard to say how will the channel or the show work,” says a media planner who went on to state the example of a matrimonial show, aired on a leading GEC a few years back and hosted by an actress, failed to garner much ratings.

     

    The one hour show will be hosted by actor-cum-anchor Agastya Jain and Sugandha Sharma and will be aired from 30 August, every Friday to Saturday, 8 pm onwards.
