Watch the stars at their candid best for the first time on Indian television. Shocking truths and endearing stories of your favourite celebrities will be shown on the leading Hindi General Entertainment Channel, STAR Plus as it launches an emotional, inspiring & heart warming chat show, Tere Mere Beach Mein. It’s a show which is not about the celebrity’s stardom but about their lives away from the arc lights.
This seven week series comprises of 14 episodes and allows television viewers in India to have a first time glimpse into the ‘real’ life of a celebrity. It’s a unique talk show in which Farah Khan gets candid with the biggest celebrities from various walks of life to discuss what they have in similar with the common man.
At the launch of Tere Mere Beach Mein, STAR Plus GM & EVP, Keertan Adyanthaya said, "It’s a chat show that encourages experience sharing in an informal and fun environment. It is guaranteed to make viewers sit up and take notice, engage their thoughts, feelings and conscience, help them get a better understanding of what's going in the heads, hearts and lives of super successful icons in India, and exposes their vulnerable, never seen before real personalities in a compassionate environment. The aim is to involve, engage and entertain viewers and we hope it will make for compelling content as the audience and guest’s stories relate to each other on common relevant themes."
Farah Khan said, "It’s a privilege to associate with STAR Plus once again. Tere Mere Beach Mein breaks the myth that ‘Stars live in a different world’…. and gets the viewers to realize how similar their stories are, and hence how similar their worlds are. Funny and lively, the show brings celebrities and the audience members to discuss a select theme. Set on a backdrop inspired by the beaches of Goa, it instantly sets a mood of informal, uninhibited chats with the stars. Being an astute observer of today’s society with an ability to cut to the core, I highlight the genuine side of the celebrities as they speak on topics that are central to every human being - issues, fears, emotions, relations & happiness - everything a star shares with the common man."
Every episode opens with Farah Khan interacting with the audience in her own inimitable and witty style as she introduces the topic of the day. The celebrities reveals unknown personal facts about themselves on the topic. An audience member shares a similar story as the celebrity in the Main Hoon Nah segment. All celebrities autograph a personal belonging and these will be auctioned and its proceeds will go to charity. The show ends with Farah teaching the guest a dance step in "Farah’s Step of the Week."
Tune into Tere Mere Beach Mein - A platform that offers a unique occasion of sharing, exchanging of stories & moments between the common man and the star – every Saturday & Sunday at 9 pm, only on STAR Plus.
