Hoping to break old age stereos that pregnancy means sitting at home and dropping all work, Bharti said that she’d change her mother’s mindset and that of all the other moms who believe in these old school ideas by being India’s first pregnant anchor.
She further said that she was both terrified and excited about Hunarbaaz which is highly anticipated and joked that the channel is ‘chalak’ making three people working and paying just two, her and Harsh.
Bharti and Harsh have hosted quite a few shows together before including India’s Got Talent and Dance Deewane 3.
Hunarbaaz is a talent hunt where Karan Johar , Parineeti Chopra and Mithun Chakraborty will serve as judges. The show will air on Colors from 22 January.
