MTV urges the youth, “Donate Karo. Phir Show Off Karo”
MUMBAI: Ever paused to think why a desperate Facebook post or an urgent Whatsapp text seeking blood from a close friend/ relative is the only time we are triggered into action? It could be for anyone! His child, her mother, your grandfather or someone who doesn’t have a friend making these frantic calls on his or her behalf. Blood is not needed only in times of large scale tragedies or epidemics. On the contrary, it is needed every day by many undergoing various treatments, road accidents and so on. Every time you donate blood, you save not 1 but 3 lives. So, do your bit and donate blood now.
On World Blood Donor Day, MTV has created a quirky film to captivate youth’s attention citing reality through humor. The video showcases how a young boy enjoys flaunting his noble deed of donating blood for constant attention till someone gives him a reality check that it’s “NO BIG DEAL TO DONATE BLOOD.” The aim of this film is to convey that it’s okay to brag about your acts but first, focus on performing them right rather than seeking attention.

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.
