Ajay Devgn to Host ‘Gumrah 3’ on Channel V

23 August 2013

Actor Ajay Devgn is all set to host youth show “Gumrah 3” as part of a promotional strategy for his upcoming release “Satyagraha.”

Devgn, 44, will be joined by the show’s original anchor Karan Kundra on the Aug. 25 episode of the Channel V show.

“He (Ajay) is very down-to-earth and never makes you feel that he’s a superstar. The experience was really nice and I had an amazing time shooting with him,” said Kundra.

Television has always been a desired platform for Bollywood to connect with its audience, and the “Singham” star is also leaving no stone unturned to promote Prakash Jha’s socio-political drama.

“Satyagraha” is a multi-starrer project featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Arjun Rampal, Manoj Bajpayee, Kareena Kapoor and Amrita Rao.

The film is set to hit theaters Aug. 30.

Kevin Vaz, Business Head, Star World which also has channels like, FX and Star World Premiere HD said, “Our audience has the maximum skewness towards drama, hence we are keen to acquire shows in that category. We acquired 26 news shows in September 2013. When we chose shows, the audience profile matters a lot. Our core audience would be up-market English speaking people who like global content.”
