The show is packaged in an engaging yet simple format to ensure that our audience grasps the information and the discussions conducted on the show. Our news channel has always consciously brought forward shows, in captivating formats, to throw light on current affairs and situations in the nation. Through this offering, we aim to amplify the message with the presence of renowned personalities, who will address topics that genuinely matter.”

CNBC Awaaz anchor Amish Devgan says, “Healthy debates are one way we can attempt to raise people’s voice and opinions about policies and laws governing our society. There is a dearth of such platforms that are especially devoted to presenting claims and arguments of both the sides on trending controversial issues. ‘TAKKAR’ is conceived to address these issues and give a chance to our participants to justify their actions.

The show will be aired on CNBC Awaaz, 9pm Monday to Friday. For more details check out their social media page #TakkarOnAwaaz.
