MUMBAI: Zee TV's star producer (Antakshari, Sa Re Ga Ma
Pa) Gajendra Singh has put in his papers, after a long
stint at Subhash Chandra's flagship channel.
Singh is charting out on his own and with plans to set up
his own production boutique.
Singh's association with the channel will, however, remain as
he will continue to do commissioned shows for Zee TV. Confirming
the development, Zee TV business head Punit Goenka said, "Gajendra
will be starting his own production house. However, he will
continue to be associated with Zee TV doing projects for us."
Earlier this year, rumours were rife in the industry that
Singh was likely to join rival networks (notably Star).
Singh has been the creative mind behind the concept of reality
shows like CloseUp Antakshri, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa and the
recent chart topper Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Lil' Champs. Over
his years at the channel he had taken the programme to the
UK, USA, Middle East, Europe, all the while improving the
format.
