  • Zee News Initiates Interactive Discussions On Paradigm Shift In The Society

    MUMBAI: Zee News – the pioneer Hindi news channel, in it’s endeavor to highlight the shift of the focus in the society, presents two interactive discussion programmes this weekend. These programmes will primarily focus on two issues; first is “”Are religious Gurus have become the role models of the society, today?” and the second is “Is the society in Gujarat accepting the liberal women?”

     

    The two programmes have been designed in such a way that the viewer’s interactivity would be as high as possible. “Main Azaad Hoon” initiates the discussion on “today’s liberal attitude of women”, whereas it is “commoner’s increasing dependency on the religious gurus” takes the center stage in “Kitna Bole Baba”

    The programmes are aimed at clarifying the prevailing misconceptions about the issues. “Kitna Bole Baba” will focus the society’s current mindset of making larger than life picture of their religious gurus.

    It will be telecasted on 23rd December’06 at 8 p.m. “Main Azaad Hoon” will focus on the pragmatic situations, which today’s women often find them into. From having a boyfriend to having an extra marital affair, no question is going to be hypothetical. The discussion will further cover the morality factor in the women’s action from society’s viewpoint.
