Like my friend Ramdas, I am not much of an Indian TV buff. From him I got the link of Satyamevjayate - Aamir Khans' social activism programme. Aamir Khan is using his celebrity status to promote social change. I watched the link on YouTube
( see the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1vASMbEEQc ). The first episode aired on Sunday 6th May was on female infanticide. It is 64 minutes of absolutely riveting TV, that had many in tears including me (as you will also see Aamir Khan & several in the studio audience). This is for real and incredibly powerful. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1vASMbEEQc I am including a few related links.
