After Aamir Khan’s Satyamev Jayate, it is now Shah Rukh Khan’s turn to teach us some good things. The Bollywood superstar is all set to host Ted Talks India: Nai Soch, which will air from December 10 on Star Plus.
The actor shared the first promo for his new show on his social media. In the video, he is seen strutting in a hotel’s lobby, talking about the show’s target audience.
“It’s for the young, and also for those young at heart. It is for those who have ideas and for those who don’t have any idea. It is for the open-minded and for those who want to open their mind,” he says in the video.
“It is time to open our minds and hearts not just the arms…,” Shah Rukh captioned the video.

The TV show is created in partnership with TED, a non-profit organisation and will be featuring speakers from various fields sharing ideas in TED’s signature format of short, powerful talks. This is the first time TED is collaborating with a major network to produce a TV series featuring original TED Talks in Hindi.
“Ideas are the new cool currency, the new rock n roll. This show is a unique and powerful initiative towards opening people’s minds to the power of ideas and encouraging ‘Nayi Soch’. An idea can inspire you with limitless possibilities, give you an alternative perspective to look at oneself, one’s surroundings and future,” Shah Rukh said in a statement.
The opening episode of the show will be simulcast across Star Gold, Movies OK, Star World, Star Jalsha along with Star Plus and Hotstar.
Shah Rukh Khan has previously also spoken on Ted Talks.
