MUMBAI: Radio City is airing a new comedy show – Komedy Ka King Kong.
The show, which started on 26 December, is a rib-ticking bonanza that will spice up the lives of its listeners with a daily dose from Monday to Saturday at 8 PM
With lighthearted and hilarious comic routines, the network says it will showcase the finest and most humorous performances of 32 comedians selected from the cities of Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Lucknow.
In order to make it an interactive, listeners may participate in this show by calling and leaving their jokes on an IVRS (interactive voice response system) activated number through the ‘listener contest’, informs an official release.
Komedy King Kong is hosted by the popular standup comedian Vinay Pathak, and he will also be judging the preliminary rounds of the show.
The final verdict rests with the junta as they would judge the semifinal and the final rounds through SMS voting. The grand winner of the search would be crowned Komedy Ka King Kong and would get a a lifetime opportunity to host the comedy show.
Says Radio City head of programming Vikas Verma, “Radio City is the only FM radio station in India providing a dedicated comedy show. Komedy Ka King Kong is another addition to our bouquet of comedy programmes like Babbar Sher, Popat, & Tadka Trailor, which have been appreciated by our listeners. Komedy Ka King Kong, with its daily dose of wit and spoofs, will provide the much-needed relief to the otherwise routine and hectic lives of our listeners. The comic performances will go a long way in entertaining our listeners with bouts of laughter and leave them asking for more.”

TLC launches ‘World On My Plate’ with Shipra Khanna
New travel-food series premieres 29 March at 7:00 PM.
MUMBAI: Shipra Khanna just packed her bags and her flavours because when a celebrated chef takes you on a global plate tour, even the couch starts feeling like first-class. Warner Bros. Discovery India has announced the launch of World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna, a new travel and food series set to premiere on TLC on 29 March at 7:00 PM. Hosted and curated by the popular chef and television personality, the show blends food, travel and culture through an intimate and immersive lens.
Across three visually rich episodes, Shipra journeys to global destinations to explore not just what people eat, but why they eat it, uncovering the stories, traditions and human connections behind every dish. The series opens in London, weaving its iconic landmarks with diverse culinary scenes, before moving to Spain’s vineyards, olive orchards and coastal kitchens.
Warner Bros. Discovery head of advertising revenues for South Asia Tanaz Mehta said: “At TLC, our focus has always been on bringing authentic stories that reflect how people live and connect. World On My Plate builds on this by using food as a lens to explore shared traditions across geographies. We’re excited to collaborate with Chef Shipra Khanna, whose perspective brings both depth and relatability to these narratives.”
Shipra Khanna added, “Food has always been my way of connecting with people and understanding cultures. With World On My Plate, I’ve had the opportunity to step into new worlds, learn from incredible individuals, and share stories that go far beyond the plate. This show is very special to me.”
The series promises strong visual storytelling, meaningful interactions and a fresh perspective on global cuisine celebrating flavours alongside the emotions and traditions that shape them.
In a world where travel shows often feel like distant postcards, Shipra Khanna is serving up something far more personal: a passport to cultures through their kitchens, proving that the best way to understand a place is still through the plate. Tune in to World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna starting 29 March at 7:00 PM on TLC.
