World’s First TV Comedy Show on Internet “JAY HIND" by Undercover Productions & Buzzintown

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 20, 2009 -- Stand-up comedy show launches Jay Hind on Independence Day and celebrates a free India

MUMBAI – Undercover Productions, a boutique production company by Mrinal Jha and Abhigyan Jha, in collaboration with the internet portal Buzzintown today announced the launch of ‘Jay Hind!’ – The world’s first ever TV Comedy Show on an online platform. ‘Jay Hind!’ will go live on the internet from the 15th of August, Indian Independence day, and will be available at http://jayhind.buzzintown.com.

Abhigyan Jha, founder of Undercover Productions said, “Jay Hind! is about another kind of discovery of India that takes a deep look at the heart of the country and comes out laughing. It is a celebration of free India, where the only freedom we are mostly left with is the freedom of speech. It is also a celebration of the India that's coming - a strong, proud India that doesn't mind laughing at its ironies and follies. Considering the content of the show, it seemed most appropriate for us to launch ‘Jay Hind!’ on Independence Day.”

The stand-up comedy show will be hosted by versatile television actor & star of the hit show Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai Sumeet Raghavan. The show will feature a stand up routine followed by quick one-liners about current events and brief comedy sketches, impromptu street interviews, celebrity interviews and performances. Further attraction in this show will be a brand new segment called ‘Boothnath’, where the producers plan to install booths across the country with surveillance cameras, so that people can go there to vent their anger on anything or anyone.

Dr. Amitabh Saran, co-founder and managing director, Buzzintown on this occasion said, “The online platform has seen a sharp rise in the number of subscribers, with the internet reaching out to remote regions in the country. Our partnership with Undercover Productions allows ‘Jay Hind!’ to reach an audience who does not have the time to watch television but has easy access to the internet on their PC or mobile phones. It is exciting to be part of a pioneering and mammoth launch of a television show online.”
