Khan
and young co-star Darsheel participated in the show
and created a two-in-one fanfold image of himself
and Darsheel along with Rob. The stars were further
fascinated by Rob as he taught them innovative art
techniques like blow straw painting.
Rob
also had a special tete-a-tete with Khan about his
directorial debut Taare Zameen Par, his experiences
on playing an arts teacher, his inspiration for the
film, as well as managing and acting with kids. Furthermore,
Khan added to the fun factor by actually singing the
introductory parts of one the song Bum Bum Bole
from the movie.
Sharing
his views on creativity and association with M.A.D,
Khan said, "Creativity is about approaching things
differently. It is about seeing a window where others
see a wall. This is what M.A.D shows, which
makes learning fun."
Rob
mentioned that one has to be open minded, think out
of the box. He explained while giving an example of
how a plain bottle could be changed into a spaceship,
submarine or a plane by just exploring the possibilities
beyond the obvious.
The
musical trio Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy also talked about,
shared anecdotes and even performed some of the seven
songs composed by them for the film. They also shared
their favourites from the album.
M.A.D
is an award winning original production of Pogo. Over
the years, M.A.D has won seven international
and national awards, since its inception in April
2005. In fact, this year for the second time in a
row, the show has bagged the "Best Kids' Programme"
award at both the Indian Telly Awards and Indian Television
Academy Awards 2007.
