Overview:
The show is noted for its fresh and witty appeal, and it is
very popular with the younger audiences. The show began to
air in 2004 and was a huge success. The first episode aired
on November 19, 2004 and the first season ended on May 27,
2005. The show had been put on hold due to Johar's
commitment to his next directorial project, Kabhi Alvida Naa
Kehna (2006).
The show brings together celebrities who are interviewed in
the show's trademark informal style. The show has many
sections such as a "rapid fire" round in which a volley of
questions are thrown at the celebrity who has to think of
answers off the top of their heads sometimes with hilarious
results. The winner receives a coffee hamper. Sometimes the
show includes opinions from members of the public.
The first season was huge success, and the programme became
the first English entertainment show to ever get a huge
rating in India. The episode in which Abhishek Bachchan and
Preity Zinta appeared together was the highest viewed
episode in season one.
