Channel V Brings Back Dare 2 Date

9 October 2014

Launching on October 13, the reality show is in its third season. Hosted by Andy, it will air Monday to Saturday at 5.30 pm.
Channel V, the youth general entertainment channel from the Star India stable, is bringing back its popular dating reality show, Dare 2 Date. Launching on October 13, the show is in its third season. It will air Monday to Saturday at 5.30 pm. 
The show will continue to be hosted by Andy, who is loved for his fun-loving personality. He has hosted other shows on the channel as well, including 'Get Gorgeous', 'Beauty and the Geek'. 

Dare 2 Date is an anti-romance, anti-mush series where Andy plays both Cupid and Devil and pairs people who are the complete opposite of the other's idea of their perfect match. The "couple" is then packed off to a "romantic weekend" and sparks fly as both get to know each other better. In the end it all comes down to whether the couple lives long enough to tell the viewers their story.

Ajit Thakur, EVP and business head of Channel V and Life OK says, "Channel V creates high-value, cross-platform content geared towards India's youth. We have been breaking clichés and launching shows which do not fall under the regular humdrum content. Dare 2 Date, with its unique theme and incorrigible host Andy, is one such show. The show is back for a third season by popular demand and will ensure that viewers are left thoroughly entertained this time around too."
For the record, in November last year, Channel V rebranded and took on a new look and logo with the tagline 'Correct Hai'. It came out of the channel's brand philosophy wherein it believed that the tonality of the brand needs to be politically incorrect and emotionally correct. The channel communicated that if something feels right, it really can't be wrong and encouraged people to listen to their inner voice.
