Last seen on 24, Mandira Bedi returns to television after a gap of two years as a judge for a junior RJ hunt reality show, reports Nishant Singh
She started her journey in the field of entertainment a long time back with the TV serial Aurat. Since then, she has managed to turn herself into an all-rounder, entertaining everyone with her talent and her good work. Mandira Bedi is a person who can win any battle she enters – whether in her personal or professional life. “It’s been a great journey in the field of entertainment. I have done so many things from hosting cricket, reality shows and of course, acting,” she says.
The newest feather in her cap is the role of a judge on a junior RJ hunt reality show. Owing to her skills in this field and her being a celebrity mom, she was the perfect choice to join the campaign as the face of the property and gauge the participants’ skills. The concept of the hunt is that children between 8-14 years across 45 cities will be adjudged by the eminent jury and 45 lucky winners will get a chance to co-host their very own show on their local 92.7 BIG FM station while one will feature on BIG Magic’s Comedy ka Rocket. Through this initiative, the channel hopes that they can reach out kids everywhere in the country, even the ones who are otherwise marginalised, and enable them to showcase their talent on one of the biggest platforms in the nation.
I am glad to be a part of such a novel initiative which offers a platform for kids as young as 8 years to bring out their hidden talent. They are doing a commendable job of tapping the talent at a young age and in a way also making the parents see the potential their child has. Being a mother, I would strongly recommend parents to identify the interest and skills of their children early in their lives and encourage them to take a focused approach towards achieving the same, she adds about the initiative.
Apart from being known as a stellar entertainer, Mandira also has a distinctive modeling career and amazing fashion designing skills. As expected from her, she does her best to stay fit. She reveals her fitness mantra, “I eat a balanced diet and exercise five days in a week to remain fit,” said Bedi.
Her last outing on TV was TV series, 24. She says that she had great fun working with Anil Kapoor in the first season, but she is a little disappointed that she couldn’t be part of the second season as the makers are adapting season from three of the international series and the role which she played is not a part of that season.
