Care World TV to quiz viewers on Health & Wellness – launches ‘Health Quiz’
Mumbai: Care World TV in an attempt to make well-being an interactive subject, has launched Health Quiz. A daily quiz session, Health Quiz will constitute simple but puzzling questions on wellness related subjects. The nine year old TV channel endeavours to evoke the minds and interests of viewers on diverse, critical health topics. Viewers are invited to respond via SMS and the result is announced on the same day. The winners also stand a chance to win exciting prizes.
“Health and wellness are subjects of importance to everyone yet it always remains a passive subject in the order of priorities. Most of the health issues when educated with a preventive course of action are met with a laid back attitude, unless it is an emergency. Our endeavour is to keep our viewers abreast of all such preventive measures and be equipped with knowledge on leading a fit and healthy life. Our interactive Health Quiz has been developed with the intention of making this possible and it has changed the scenario, grabbed attention and has compelled viewers to actively participate,” says Mr. Ajit Gupta, Managing Director, Care World TV.
Care World TV has brought an unprecedented interest in the health and wellness industry which is evident by the popularity of the channel, in this segment. While many others have attempted and are still debuting with some health dedicated time slots in their existing channels, Care World has captured the entire gamut of this sector. It is making progressive strides in this field, both to better the viewer experience and make the subject as interesting as it can get.
“Health Quiz was piloted for identifying viewers who have benefitted with any or all of our shows. We kept receiving a steady trickle of entries to the quizzes we posted and over time we realised that this interaction would become another means for us to engage with the audience. Winners appreciated that we recognised them and we were pleased to know that it mattered to our viewers. This has encouraged us to extend Health Quiz across all our other digital platforms as well. Our health and wellness app – Body Care, is emerging as the next favourite platform for participants to participate in the quizzes,” adds Mr. Gupta. “For the first time in the history of Indian television, Care World TV is making an attempt to idealize health by making it a topic of active and interesting communication through Health Quiz. We are positive it will make a change,” he concludes.

National Geographic launches ‘Postcards from Hong Kong’ with Ridhi Dogra
New series explores the city’s hidden gems and vibrant contrasts, premiering 28 March.
MUMBAI: Ridhi Dogra just sent a postcard from Hong Kong that’s worth framing because when a bustling metropolis reveals its quiet trails and timeless traditions, even the skyline takes a back seat. National Geographic has unveiled Postcards from Hong Kong, a refreshing travel series hosted and curated by actor Ridhi Dogra. Produced by National Geographic Creative Works in collaboration with the Hong Kong Tourism Board, the show offers an intimate, Indian traveller’s perspective on one of Asia’s most iconic cities, moving beyond its glittering harbour and skyscrapers to uncover serene beaches, scenic hiking trails and deep cultural traditions.
Across three visually rich episodes, Ridhi journeys through contrasting sides of Hong Kong. The first episode takes her on a quieter path of self-discovery to places like Sai Kung, Big Wave Bay, Dragon’s Back, Tai O, Ngong Ping, Po Lin Monastery and the Tian Tan Buddha. The second episode dives into the city’s energetic side, from the bustling streets of Causeway Bay to Happy Valley Racecourse, Michelin-starred spots and luxury shopping at Landmark.
Ridhi Dogra said, “Being part of Postcards from Hong Kong with Nat Geo was a deeply enriching experience. What I love about this journey is that it goes beyond the obvious; it’s not just about the skyline or the speed of the city but about the stories that live in its quieter corners.”
A National Geographic India spokesperson added, “With Postcards from Hong Kong, we set out to go beyond the familiar and explore the city through a more intimate, human lens.”
Hong Kong Tourism Board director of South Asia Puneet Kumar noted, “Postcards from Hong Kong is a reflection of meaningful storytelling that brings the city to life in an immersive way. It beautifully captures the diversity and spirit that define Hong Kong.”
Blending travel, culture and personal storytelling, the series celebrates Hong Kong as a city of contrasts where modern life meets tradition and every corner holds a story waiting to be discovered. It premieres on 28 March at 8 pm on the National Geographic Channel and will also stream on JioHotstar.
In a world of hurried travel reels, Postcards from Hong Kong slows things down just enough to let viewers truly see the city not just its lights, but its layers, proving that the best souvenirs are the stories you bring home.
