Zee News Initiates Interactive Discussions On Paradigm Shift In The Society
MUMBAI: Zee News – the pioneer Hindi news channel, in it’s endeavor to highlight the shift of the focus in the society, presents two interactive discussion programmes this weekend. These programmes will primarily focus on two issues; first is “”Are religious Gurus have become the role models of the society, today?” and the second is “Is the society in Gujarat accepting the liberal women?”
The two programmes have been designed in such a way that the viewer’s interactivity would be as high as possible. “Main Azaad Hoon” initiates the discussion on “today’s liberal attitude of women”, whereas it is “commoner’s increasing dependency on the religious gurus” takes the center stage in “Kitna Bole Baba”
The programmes are aimed at clarifying the prevailing misconceptions about the issues. “Kitna Bole Baba” will focus the society’s current mindset of making larger than life picture of their religious gurus. It is going to be a discussion between today’s famous gurus and the social scientists with a view to bring a clearer picture of the thought process the gurus put in, while advising their disciples in their day to day affairs.
It will be telecasted on 23rd December’06 at 8 p.m. “Main Azaad Hoon” will focus on the pragmatic situations, which today’s women often find them into. From having a boyfriend to having an extra marital affair, no question is going to be hypothetical. The discussion will further cover the morality factor in the women’s action from society’s viewpoint.
Apart from survey and field stories, the guests in the studio will also contribute with their views. Guests would include some social activists, young girls and a psychologist. This will be telecasted on 24th December’06 at 8 p.m. The survey was conducted in four cities – Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara and Rajkot.
Zee News has always devised ways to connect to its viewers. A deep research was conducted, before zeroing down on these topics. The channel has been frequently providing a platform to discuss the important topics, which will pave way to an open-minded society.
Watch the discussions live on Zee News from 8pm. To 9 pm on 23rd and 24th December’06.
