While fiction shows are working relentlessly to churn fresh content for the audience, reality series were yet to go on floors. As per latest updates, Sony TV’s India’s Best Dancers and The Kapil Sharma will resume shoot from July 13 and 21, respectively.
A source shared with indianexpress.com that the channel and production houses were working on the logistics for resuming work on reality shows. With no audience on sets for now, the team has been working on alternative measures to have the same kind of energy during shoot.
“Sonu Sood will be the first guest on The Kapil Sharma Show. Talks have been on with him for a long time, and Kapil personally has been in touch with Sood. He readily agreed, and even assured that he would be available as and when they would need him to shoot. The team has also spoken to Manoj Bajpayee to grace the
show in the coming days,” added the source.
India’s Best Dancer will air its grand premiere episode this weekend, that was shot before work was stalled because of the coronavirus-induced lockdown. It will follow up with new episodes from next weekend. As of now, the team hasn’t confirmed if there would be any guests joining them for the shoot. The show has Malaika Arora, Terence Lewis and Geeta Kapur as judges while Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa will host it.
Earlier, speaking to indianexpress.com, India’s Best Dancer producer Ranjeet Thakur had opened up on the challenges of resuming work amid the coronavirus scare. He shared how he would have to trim down people on his set from 450-500 on a usual day to about a handful. The producer also opened up on how he has planned out duties for the team dividing them into different zones.
