Superstar Shah Rukh Khan has joined hands with Hindi general entertainment channel Colors for his return to the small screen. He will reportedly host a grand live show based on the hugely popular international series Got Talent.
The two entertainment giants promise something “spectacular” with the special announcement to be made at a press conference here today.
A source said the live show will be aired on the channel in December.
The source said that if things go as planned, international TV personality Simon Cowell, creator of Got Talent and The X Factor, may also visit Mumbai for the show, likely to be a first-of-its-kind twist on Got Talent. The live event will be held at the Andheri Sports Complex here.
Meanwhile, Indian television already has India’s Got Talent, the local spinoff of Cowell’s show.
Khan, one of Bollywood’s most iconic stars, is not new to the TV medium.
The 48-year-old started his tryst with showbiz via television with shows like Fauji and Circus, and it was from there that he landed a role in his debut film Deewana 22 years ago.
He returned to the medium to host the third season of the hugely popular game show Kaun Banega Crorepati and later he anchored Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain? and Zor Ka Jhatka.
On the Bollywood front, Khan will be seen in Farah Khan’s multi-starrer Happy New Year, which happens to be tinsel town’s big ticket Diwali release this year.
