Following the announcement of its new initiative, 'CEO's Got Talent', FremantleMedia has announced a three-member jury for the evening. Bringing together the mavericks of the corporate and entertainment world on a common platform, Raj Nayak, CEO, Colors, director-producer Mahesh Bhatt, and actor Raveena Tandon are all set to be part of the jury panel.
Hosted by Mini Mathur, the show will feature 12 CEOs of India Inc. showcasing a fun and lighter side to themselves. The event is set to take place at Grand Hyatt Mumbai on Friday, March 7, 2014 and will be telecast on CNBC TV18.
Raveena Tandon said, “I have recently started my own venture, and so I can confirm first-hand that it is very difficult to find a balance between work and play. I feel humbled to be given the opportunity to be a part of this unique initiative which allows you to witness never-seen-before talent of corporate honchos on stage. The fact that the proceeds raised through this initiative will be donated towards the welfare of underprivileged children also prompted my decision to judge this event.”
Mahesh Bhatt said, "Over the years, discovering impressive talent and bringing them to the limelight has been my passion. Through my association with 'CEO's Got Talent', I am looking forward to extend my expertise to Corporate India. The initiative is a novel concept with the head honchos from the corporate world revealing their hidden side. I am happy to be a part of this initiative and am looking forward to an enjoyable and entertaining evening witnessing the fantastic talent of today's leaders."
Raj Nayak commented, "CEO's Got Talent is an incredible initiative being undertaken by FremantleMedia to encourage CEOs from across the country to step away from the hustle and bustle of their daily routine and showcase their talent. I am elated to be associated with the property as a jury member and look forward to witnessing the creative side of today's young and upcoming leaders who have taken the corporate world by storm."
Produced by FremantleMedia and presented by Blackberry Messenger, the show will showcase India Inc.'s leaders in a manner never seen before, even by their peers. Proceeds from the show will go to Genesis Foundation, which provides financial support for life-saving and life-changing medical intervention for critically ill underprivileged children in areas of cancer, cardiac disorder, organ failure, thalassemia and extreme deformities.
