Now here’s some info on the show. This Endemol venture will feature 30 top international wrestlers. We will also have desi pehalwans dressed up in fancy attires as seen in WWF (World Wrestling Federation) and TNA (Total Nonstop Action Wrestling). “Ring Ka King is not just about sports but a combination of sports and entertainment,” says a source.
And in a bid to grab eyeballs, the channel has roped in Harbhajan Singh as the show’s brand ambassador. “You never know what fireworks Bhajji will bring to the table”, quips the source.
Furthermore, Siddharth has been signed as he has the capacity to host shows live without any script. “He does not have much knowledge about wrestling but the channel wanted someone who can connect with the masses,” further adds the source.
We tried getting in touch with Siddharth but he remained unavailable.
Well, given the current dismal performance of the Men In Blue in the land of kangaroos, may be wrestling can give Indian sports a much needed fillip in 2012.
