    Star Pravah to launch new singing reality show – ‘Mi Honar Superstar’

    MUMBAI: Star Pravah is all set to launch an all-new singing reality show “Mi Honar Superstar” (“I am going to be a Superstar”) produced by Endemol Shine India. Launching on Sunday 12 January 2020 at 12 noon, the show is an opportunity for singers who have unfulfilled singing dreams, to prove themselves once again.

    The grand premiere, for the first time in the history of Marathi television, will see Mika Singh, Shaan, Sukhvinder Singh, Udit Narayan, Shalmali Kholgade and Nakash Aziz nominate participants who are striving for a second chance to make a singing career. These are talented individuals who for some reason or other had to put their singing dream on hold and pursue other avenues and careers, but will now have a second chance to present their talent to the world on the stage of “Mi Honar Superstar”. Adarsh Shinde, Rahul Deshpande and Mrunal Kulkarni will be the judges in the show while Pushkar Shrotri will be the host.

    "With ‘Mi Honar Superstar’, Endemol Shine India presents a new format in singing reality on Star Pravah. The platform gives a second chance to the aspiring singers to bring alive their unexplored potential. We expect to bring forth some superb singing talent on the show and will have some of the best from the music industry to mentor and guide the talent besides our formidable jury. Here’s hoping that true to its name the show does put the spotlight on the new superstars of Marathi Music!" said Endemol Shine India chief operating officer Gaurav Gokhale.

    “Talent is one thing that cannot be forgotten. We have seen so many cases of talented people giving up their talent and dreams for household responsibilities, families, not being able to perceive due to lack of support, financial problems, among many other reasons. Had they got the required support and the chance to perceive their dream, they could have been serious talent today and give some leading talent a run for their money. MHS on Star Pravah is such a platform that will give such talented people a second chance to fulfill their dreams and give another opportunity to achieve what they left out of choice or no choice. People with great voice and in perfect tune with their talent will compete with each other. Talent will be judged by established iconic singers and dreams will turn into reality here. Life always gives a second chance and this is the same emotion”, said Star Pravah programming head Satish Rajwade.

    The grand premier will see awesome performance by giants of the music Industry alongside superb talents scouted from all corners of Maharashtra. Post the grand premiere ‘Mi Honar Superstar’ will be presented to viewers every Saturday and Sunday at 9 PM.

    Famous singer Shaan talks about his experience with the platform of “Mi Honar Superstar” and says “I have a lot of love for the Marathi language and I feel a sense of belonging.  Marathi was my favorite subject at school and I used to get more marks in Marathi compared to other subjects. When I was asked to be present in the first episode of the “Mi Honar Superstar” by Star Pravah, I immediately agreed. I have sung Marathi songs on this platform. The special thing is – I loved the concept of the show. Very few people get a second chance in life.  So, participants should make full use of this opportunity given to them. If I had to talk about a second chance in my life – I loved singing right from the time I was young. I used to sing jingles as well, however, my voice changed when I was 12. I felt it won’t be the same as earlier. After 2 – 3 years of practice, I got back the voice which I had earlier. This story sounds unbelievable, but this is the second chance that life gave me.”

    The brand new singing reality show programme will be viewable on 12 January at 12 noon and 6 pm, only on Star Pravah.

    Hindi remake of Mumbai Pune Mumbai

    MUMBAI: Marathi filmmaker Satish Rajwade, known for his film Mumbai Pune Mumbai, is mulling with the idea of remaking the popular film in Hindi.

    Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai was about two strong minded individuals who meet each other in Pune. Mukta Barve, a stylish teenager from Mumbai, meets Swapnil Joshi, when the latter is playing cricket. She asks for an address which turns out to be Swapnil‘s own address. A love story ensues along with a conflict on whose native city is better. Both of them become a couple in the end.

    However, to reach out to a wider audience, this time the storyline is set against the backdrop of Mumbai and Delhi. Rajwade has also named his film as Mumbai Delhi Mumbai.

    A few days ago, Rajwade approached Shahid Kapoor to star in the film. He narrated the concept to Kapoor when they last met after which the star has okayed his participation in the project. But he will not start the film until he has read the script.
