  • Chhota VJ back on Nickelodeon with ‘Say Please’

    MUMBAI: What do you do when you want your request to air on Nickelodeon? Simple, say please. Well no, Nick is not starting an obedience school. It is airing the second season of Say Please.
    The half hour request show, hosted by the Chhota VJ Shiv Tandon, is back with new avtaar and extra zing and masti to keep the ‘baacha log’ hooked to their TV sets, says an Nickelodeon release.
    Besides playing Bollywood and international music, the request show will feature some crazy contest like the loudest burp, touching your tongue to your nose, balancing the football on your head for two minutes and more.
    While the oldies and not so old ones have Loveline and Request aired on the music arm, Shiv ‘Cyrus in small package’ will play an agony aunt to the young ones in this show. The kids can write about their worst week in school, funny incidents to get their thoughts voiced, says the release.
    With the famous section from the earlier version-grouse pot back on the show, the kiddies can gripe about everything they hate from homework, friends to elder brother/ sister on the show. Or else they can simply request a song either through an e-mail or a call.
    Just like MTV Request, the best letter of the day on the show will win a bag full of nick goodies- umbrellas, bags, caps, raincoats and more, adds the release.
