hey guys! how r u all doing?
Johnny Lever turns to television
The comedian will do stand-up comic acts on his first small-screen show
After acting in over 150 films and performing shows all over the world, Bollywood comedian, Johnny Lever, is now training his eyes on television. Lever will star in a show which is named after him and will be telecast on Zee TV. He will present stand-up comedies and perform spoofs on current topics.
Titled Johnny Aala Re, this show is the channel's attempt at comedy. Ashwini Yardi, Zee TV's programming head, says, "We thought we had enough number of shows that had drama as their basis, so we decided to have a comedy show." Yardi said that the channel will gradually launch thrillers too.
Remembered most for his 'Pandu, we love you' act, Lever is excited about performing on TV. Lever says, "I have cut down on films deliberately. I have been doing the same kind of roles and it was getting monotonous. I wanted to do shows on television but was sceptical about it, as I have never worked continuously for 16 hours a day. But then I felt, if Amitabh Bachchan can do it, why can't I?"
