Abhay Deol to host Channel V's 'Gumrah - End Of Innocence'

Abhay Deol will be hosting the fourth season of Channel V's 'Gumrah'- End Of Innocence. In sync with the show’s theme, a panel discussion was held, throwing light on the Juvenile Justice Act Bill and the pressing and delicate issue of juvenile crimes. Bollywood actor Kabir Bedi, renowned author and yoga instructor, Ira Trivedi and Abhay Deol were among the panelists.

Abhay will be accompanied by a celebrity in each episode. With a huge fan-following, the young actor has been in a number of roles that often have young people associate with, making him an apt choice for 'Gumrah'. Every hour-long episode in the new season will shine the spotlight on a celebrity who will take of a teen crime story that they have experienced or witnessed in the course of their lives.

Abhay says, “I’ve been a huge fan of the show and am excited to be a part of the greater message. 'Gumrah' focuses on the thought that nobody is born a criminal but instead circumstances and certain unforeseen incidents take you down a bad path. The idea is to not only educate parents, families but also the youth.”

“I really admire Channel V’s highly influential social and behavioural messaging through their award winning youth show 'Gumrah'. It's a real creative achievement to convey social messages while being highly entertaining.” says Bedi.

'Gumrah' S4 is produced by Balaji Telefilms. It starts August 31 every Sunday at 1 pm.
