Zee TV announces the ‘India’s Best’ winners of Delhi
MUMBAI: Zee TV’s India’s Best -cinestars ki khoj , a nationwide talent hunt to discover potential stars, announced its winners from New Delhi yesterday.
After three days of intense screening by a panel of renowned juries, four talented youngsters from the city have made it to the finals. These four will now be traveling to Mumbai for grooming to prepare them for the grand finale for India’s Best.
According to Essel Group vice president (corporate brand development) Ashish Kaul, “We have received amazing response from New Delhi. India’s Best had a large number of participants from this wonderful city and it was worthwhile for us to carry out this exercise”.
Adding further he said, “We have selected our winners after judging them on several parameters to decide their potential. New Delhi has a rich pool of talent and it has been extremely difficult for the jury to decide only four from the huge number of applicants. It is wonderful that Zee TV has undertaken this mammoth initiative to provide a platform to budding talent.”
The two final lucky winners of India’s Best will get an opportunity to pair with stars like Salman Khan, Preity Zinta and Sunny Deol.
