CEOs Got Talent!

CEOs Got Talent!

Associating a CEO of a company with anything related to entertainment like singing, dancing, theatre etc. could be a difficult thing to imagine. However, we all know that there is life beyond our jobs. So to prove the same, Fremantle Media brought the second season of CEO’s Got Talent to Taj Palace of New Delhi. It was an opportunity for the CEOs to show the other side, the artistic side of life.

The Judges seem very happy after the first performance of the participant.

Fremantle Media has always been involved in promoting talent across the world and has also set up Indian Idol Academies in many statesthat aims at providing musical training to people who lack industry support. It held the first season of CEO’s Got Talent in Mumbai. Speaking on the occasion and welcoming the audience,AnupamaMandloi, Managing Director of Fremantle Media said, “Got Talent is the most widely traveled telecom show in the world. It has been licensed to be introduced in 58 territories and has completed its 5th edition successfully on Colors. It has also broken Guinness World Record and has become the world’s most successful show format.

Mini Mathur became the gorgeous anchor of the night.

When we were deciding on CEO’s Got Talent, we were quite sceptical about it as no one has ever imagined them to be a part of the entertainment world. We were unsure if even the CEOs would like to enter this world but we were surprised when Mumbai’s season saw great participation, amazing talent and a willingness to share what they have got with the audience. Even the audiences were very supportive and that’s when we realised that we have moved into an exclusive zone and decided to get the season here as well.”

The event not only focused on the talents of the CEOs but also on a special cause to support the Genesis Foundation that works towards providing medical services to the abandoned and under-privileged children who are suffering from life threatening ailments. The foundation aims atfive areas- Thalassemia, Deformity, Brain Cancer, Heart and Organ Failure. Talking about the Genesis Foundation and the event,PremaSagar, Founder Trustee of Genesis Foundation said, “I am so glad that the hall is filled up and there are people who have supported us all through our journey. However, it is very sad that these days finding volunteers has become a task. We support 500+ children across the country and would like to get an initiative from the people present here. I wish the best participant wins but even the people present here have a chance to win a trip to the Kasuali Music Festival 2014 with which we have been associated with since a long time.”

The show was judged by the famous career maker of bollywood- Mahesh Bhatt, the gorgeous Neha Dhupia and the CEO of Colors and very talented Raj Nayak. Speaking about the competition, Mahesh Bhatt said that he would not spare any of these CEO contestants and would be as strict as he is with the participants in other reality shows whereas Raj Nayak seemed to be very excited about the event and said that it is indeed a step of courage that these participants have taken to showcase their other side of life. This event did show that no matter what position you are at, living your dreams or following your passion is never too late. It was indeed an evening which released daily life tensions and puta smile on your face.
