Aamir Khans TV show Satyameva Jayate to simulcast on DD, Star Plus

New Delhi -- Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan's debut TV show Satyameva Jayate will be shown by Doordarshan and private entertainment channel Star Plus at the same time on May 6. According to official sources, the 47-year-old decided to broadcast the show on two channels simultaneously because he wanted a larger audience. "This is for the first time that an entertainment programme of this kind will be shown at the same time by Doordarshan and a private entertainment channel. Earlier simulcasting was restricted to sport events only," a senior official told PTI. "Normally, the time period 11 am on Sunday is a dead slot for Doordarshan, but the Aamir Khan show has meant that advertisement slots will bring in a revenue of around Rs 1 crore," the official added.
