    Zee has been my first home. I learnt everything there. I totally owe it to Zee and specially, to Subhash Ji. The entire team at Zee has taught me so much and today when I see Zee completing 20 years, I feel so proud and want to thank everyone who was a part of my journey.

    Whatever I did while at Zee TV was an experience of a life time. I was always supported by the creative, production and the entire unit. I want to thank Subhash Ji specially for believing in me. Every time I was trusted with more responsibilities, I had to live up to the expectations and that in turn motivated me to give my best.

    Zee has been a pioneer in giving any formatted reality show to the viewers. In my journey, we made landmark shows and made artists who are now superstars in their own genre. I am proud of being a part of a team which made formats which are now globally known. We created customised formats for Zee so that the audience here feels the show is for them and by them and that is the reason for the success of such formats.

    Any format which is there to entertain and give something new every time to the viewers is a hit. One can‘t say that a particular format will only be a hit or not, because I feel if any show/idea/format is made keeping the local liking of viewers in mind it does well.

    Zee has always given viewers something new and the viewers have definitely accepted it. Whether its fiction or non-fiction anything which is about the viewers or around them works. I feel the present bouquet of shows at Zee is really good and has variety entertainment. There are a few fiction shows which were no. 1 in their times and became a trend for others to follow.

    I have literally seen the channel grow from a toddler to where it is today. Way to go Zee TV! We have even seen how from being a channel, we branched out and went to almost every country across the globe. There is so much of entertainment under one name and to give viewers entertainment at their doorstep (is commendable). I am so proud of Zee as it is now one of the top channels and the most talked about channels in the country!
