New Delhi, January, 2023.
A big treat is awaiting television viewers in the New Year, on
Saturday January 7 night, to be precise, when the world’s third richest person,
Gautam Adani, will be sitting in the hot seat of Rajat Sharma’s ‘Aap Ki
Adalat’. Gautam Adani will be replying to a barrage of questions from the
inimitable TV icon Rajat Sharma, who will be returning with fresh episodes of
his longest running TV show.
Adani, who normally avoids one-on-one TV interviews, has agreed
to be the guest in the show. He will be replying to several tricky questions
from Rajat Sharma, relating to controversies relating to his corporate group. Already
there is lot of buzz among the social chatterati about how Adani is going to
respond to accusations that have been levelled by his rivals and opposition
leaders. Expectations of viewers about this episode have naturally reached a
fever pitch as the D-Day draws closer.
Last month, Rajat Sharma had asked viewers to share the names of
top personalities they wished to see in fresh episodes of ‘Aap Ki Adalat’, and
Gautam Adani’s name figured on top of the wish list. The list includes names of
several other top personalities, who will also be featuring in ‘Aap Ki Adalat’,
as it steams ahead in the coming weeks with fresh episodes. The wish list
includes top cricketers, politicians, godmen, and superstars of Indian cinema.
Since its inception in 1993, ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ has featured more
than 1,000 prominent personalities sitting in its dock. From powerful
politicians, film superstars, leading sportsmen, famous singers to spiritual
gurus, none could escape the probing questions from Rajat Sharma, always delivered
with a smile, but with exact precision. The roster of distinguished guests in
his iconic show includes Presidents, Prime Ministers, cabinet ministers and
chief ministers. ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ is the only show that has the distinction of
getting all three Bollywood Khans together on the same stage.
There is no other show in Indian TV industry where eminent
guests lay bare their raw emotions, vulnerabilities, and no-holds-barred
opinions with such ease. Another high point is that ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ on India TV
can now be watched by viewers across the world, including the US and UAE.
