That Oprah Winfrey is coming to India is old news. But what’s new is the purpose of her visit. The celebrity talk show host will be shooting her new show, ‘Oprah’s Next Chapter’, at the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. Shooting for the show will happen on January 19 and the show’s representatives have already been granted the permission for the same by the Archaeological Survey of India.
Oprah is expected to be in India from January 15 to January 22. Oprah will describe five major cities of India – Delhi, Mumbai, Agra, Hrishikesh and Jaipur – on her show.
The last celebrity visitor to the Taj was Tom Cruise who had come down with Anil Kapoor to Agra during the promotional tour of ‘MI: 4’ in India. For those not clued in to Oprah’s new show, it was first aired on January 1.
Unlike the earlier seasons, this format has Oprah roaming around the world with celebrity guests to interview them.
