Will Aamir Khan’s ‘Satyamev Jayate’ beat Amitabh Bachchan’s ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’?

Last Updated: 2.13 PM IST 04.12.2012

The teasers of Mr Perfectionist’s new television show look promising and are aimed at connecting with the entire TV viewing audience

There has been a lot of buzz about the phrase “truth is invincible” ever since Aamir Khan’s television debut as the anchor-host of a show was announced a while ago. There were speculations galore about the nature of the show and we were one of the first to tell you what the brouhaha was all about. As usual, we were right….well, almost! The well made teasers of Satyamev Jayate, launched yesterday, show how involved Aamir was with the making of the whole thing and how he feels that entertainment is not only about making people laugh.

In one of the teasers Aamir says that he wants the show to connect across the board and will not play to the gallery. It will make people cry, anger them and will lead to a reaction and, if that happens, the show will accomplish what it has set out to do. Like with everything else the Talaash actor does, he has spent a lot of time on this one and it seems to be very close to his heart.

You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that Aamir is taking on the other B-town stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt and aims to beat them at their game. If the trailer is anything to go by we can at least boast of having one TV show worth our dinner time viewing. Of course, we wait to watch it to see what it will be all about and will – invincibly truthfully – tell you what we think. But for now, you watch the trailers and tell us if you like them.

ALSO READAamir Khan would love to work with Vidya Balan

Aamir Khan’s ‘Dhoom:3′ shoot NOT delayed!

    please don’t compare amir’s satyamev jayte with aamitabh’s kaun banega karodpati. kbk was a show which meant to be a trp grabbing show. they were only concerned about how much money show is gonna cover. on the other hand satyamev jayte giving the common man a platform to raise their voice against the problames they face in their day to day life. how many times did amitabh did anything like that in his show. the sms u send to kbk’s no. do u remember how much that cost u per sms. one winning 1 crore or 5 crore wont help anyone else in anyways. it’s only an entertainment show where one wins 1 crore & millions earned by the telecom companies.

    Hi AAMIR,
    Im a big fan of ur “SATYAMEV JAYATE”
    Aajtak bhut sare reality show dikhaye jate hai sirf entertainment k liye…!Lekin aap ka show victims k liye ek platform provide karta hai aur saath me jo kuch galat dikhaya jata hai uske khilaf real me action bhi liya jata hai. Yahi khasiyat hai is show ki, jo hume pasand hai.
    Samaj me faili gandagi k khilaf aapne jo aawaj uthai hai usme hum aapke saath hai.Abhi bhi bahut saree dard bhari aawaje aap tak nahi pahunchi hai.Hope so …wo jaldi hi pahunche.Mr. khan Hearty thanks aapne social awareness movement me hume bhi shamil kiya.
    God bless u.Carry on……..

    Amir Khan…Satyamev Jayate!! DOCTORS & CORRUPTION
    It was a
    mixed bag. First part was totally biased, other party was not given any
    chance to explain their side of the case. Husband of the lady who
    appeared in the first episode never got a chance to explain his side.
    poor fellow an ortho surgeon (in Fortis) has been chucked out from
    hospital & no channel is ready to listen him.
    Corruption in medical
    practice is quite rampant. Now even big hospitals are giving
    commissions as “{Incentive money”. I know Govt doctors getting kick
    backs from chemist shops outside the hospital. It is common to see
    Doctors going out on holidays with pharma companies providing the
    hospitality. A whole planeload of physicians is taken to Goa for a
    ????CME.
    Not all are corrupt & shouldn’t be painted with the same brush but there are many Blacksheeps all around us.

    Hi Amir,

    Satyamevajayate is an outstanding and soul searching programme which is badly required for our nation today. I would request you to take up subject: Inter caste/Inter-Religion Marriages in your future episodes,as we had gone through the bitter experience in that phase of our lives
