History TV18 brings back OMG! Yeh Mera India by Krushna Abhishek
MUMBAI: History TV18 is set to enthrall the audiences once again with the third season of its most celebrated show OMG! Yeh Mera India starting Thursday 29 June, 2017 at 8PM. The show has witnessed two successful seasons and has brought forth awe-inspiring stories from across India. The show will continue to be hosted by comedy king Krushna Abhishek.
The third season will showcase yet another set of unique stories from across India like an orphanage for animals like leopards, jackals, crocodile and porcupines; a barber who cuts and styles hair by igniting it with a gas lighter, a physically challenged ace-cyclist and many others. The 10 part series promises to enthrall audiences as it has in the past.
The stories are as inspiring as they are difficult to believe. From a 68 year old man who practices yoga everyday on cliff edges, to a passionate “clownselor” helping recuperating children in hospitals, to free Wi-Fi offered to people disposing thrash responsibly, these bizarre stories offer a unique window into an India that never fails to amaze.
Excited about the third season, Krushna Abhishek said, “The journey with History TV18 and OMG! Yeh Mera India has been incredible. It is one of my favourite show and is also very close to my heart. With season 3 we continue to show some unique talent across the country.”
MUMBAI: India’s most famous hot seat is about to welcome an unlikely first-timer. For the first time on Hindi general entertainment television, industrialist Kumar Mangalam Birla will appear on Kaun Banega Crorepati, the iconic quiz show hosted by Amitabh Bachchan.
The special episode marks a rare meeting point of boardroom heft and prime-time television, bringing one of India’s most influential business leaders face to face with the country’s most enduring screen legend. It is a crossover that blends intellect, leadership and popular culture, all under KBC’s familiar spotlight.
Birla’s appearance dovetails neatly with the show’s current theme, Jahaan Akal Hai, Wahan Akad Hai, which celebrates the confidence that comes from clarity of thought and knowledge. His presence lends weight to the idea that sharp thinking and conviction are as vital in life as they are in the quiz chair.
In a thoughtful conversation with Bachchan, Birla shared an upbeat view of India’s economic journey, pointing to the nation’s rapid growth and the scale of opportunity opening up across industries and communities. He spoke of momentum, ambition and a future shaped by enterprise and ideas.
The episode is not all serious talk. In lighter moments, Birla confessed his long-standing admiration for Bachchan, calling him his favourite actor and admitting to a touch of nervousness at answering questions in front of the Shahenshah himself. The candour adds a human touch to a man more often seen in headlines than on television sets.
The special episode airs on Monday, 29 December at 9.00 pm on Sony Entertainment Television and Sony LIV.
