About the reality show, Samir Nair, the CEO of NDTV Imagine, says, “Knight and Angles will have various cheerleaders competing with each other. The winners will be selected on the basis of public voting and they will get a chance to perform at the Indian Premier League (IPL) matches which will commence soon.”
Talking about his small screen plans, SRK says, “I’d like to do comedy shows. Action and thrillers are also good options, but stand up comedy has become part and parcel of every show, even on news channels. I enjoy the genre a lot. Apart from fiction, we will be working on realities too - though these will be different from the usual kind. For instance, Knight and Angles is all about cheerleaders. I am interested in doing quiz shows that the youth can relate to. After all, young audiences are coming back to TV.”
As far as SRK’s contribution goes, Nair adds, “We are grateful to Shah Rukh for working with us. He has agreed to do, not just his first situational comedy, but also his first ever reality show with us.”
Promos for Knight and Angles are currently airing. Featured in them are SRK and Juhi Chawla, the co-owner of his IPL team, Knight Riders. The show is expected to start by end of this month on NDTV Imagine. It will air on weekends. The IPL’s second season will start in April.
